A descriptive quantitative design was applied to 30 students from one eighth grade class. Data were collected through writing tests and documentation, then analyzed by identifying, classifying, and calculating the frequency of inflectional morphemes based on Yule (2020). The results show that there are seven types of inflectional morphemes used by the students: plural (-s/-es), possessive (-’s), progressive (-ing), past tense (-ed), past participle (-en/-ed), comparative (-er), and superlative (-est). The percentage of each type is as follows: plural 116 occurrences (30.4%), possessive 11 occurrences (2.93%), progressive 58 occurrences (16%), past tense 160 occurrences (45.07%), past participle 26 occurrences (4.8%), comparative 1 occurrence (0.27%), and superlative 3 occurrences (0.53%). Among these types, the past tense is the most dominant inflectional morpheme used in students’ recount writing.

Abstract

This study analyzes the politeness strategies used in the comment sections of travel-related discussions within the Reddit community r/travel. The research aims to identify the types of politeness strategies applied by users in online interactions. This study employed a qualitative descriptive method based on the politeness theory proposed by Penelope Brown and Stephen C. Levinson, which classifies politeness strategies into bald-on record, positive politeness, negative politeness, and off-record strategies. The data were collected from publicly accessible comments on selected travel-related posts in r/travel and analyzed using data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that all four politeness strategies appear in the data, with positive politeness emerging as the most dominant strategy. This indicates that users tend to create friendly and supportive interactions while discussing travel experiences and recommendations. Negative politeness is used to soften suggestions and disagreements, while bald-on record strategies are applied for direct communication. Off-record strategies appear least frequently and are mainly used for indirect criticism or implied meaning. The study concludes that politeness strategies play an important role in maintaining respectful communication in online travel discussions.
