<![CDATA[New words are required not only to increase our vocabulary but also to create new sentences. New words are acquired by the process of word formation which can be done in several ways. One of the most commonly used ways to form new words is affixation either through prefixation or suffixation. Confixation or infixation is hardly ever used and is evidenced in the Indonesian Language. Other methods of word formation include coining, clipping, blending, acronym, and compounding. A difficulty arises when one has to decide which morpheme comes first, if he encounters a word with bound morphemes at both sides, since the two bound morphemes are not simultaneously attached to the root. Confixation occurs when morphemes are bounded both ends of the root simultaneously. Confixation can be seen in the Indonesian language. Key words: word formation, bound morphemes at both sides]]>

<![CDATA[This paper focuses on The Track to Bralgu, a twelve-chapter novel written by Bozic Wongar. The novel is concerned with the destruction and exploitation of the land and the Aborigines. The novel emphasizes the superiority of the colonizer as a surface representation, and the superiority of the colonized as the representation of depth. The aim of this study is to obtain an understanding of how the tone of The Track to Bralgu leads readers to the superiority of the colonized. The objectives are first, to explain the steps of examining the tone of The Track to Bralgu and to explain how its tone can lead readers to the superiority of the colonized; second, to analyze the superiority of the colonizer as a surface representation of The Track to Bralgu; and third, to examine the tone of The Track to Bralgu which brings the idea of the superiority of the colonized. The method that was conducted in the study was the library research, for all the reference textbooks applied in the study were gained from the library. In conducting the analysis, a postcolonial approach was applied. By applying a postcolonial approach, the researcher is able to understand the broad outline of the relation between the colonizer and the colonized presented in the novel. The result of the study shows in The Track to Bralgu, the superiority of the colonizer is depicted through the superiority of tools and technology, while the superiority of the colonized is depicted in its close relation to nature. The tone of The Track to Bralgu is cynical and it brings the idea of the superiority of the colonized because its tone is examined from the colonizeds cynical view of the colonizer. Keywords: superiority, tone, colonized, colonizer, postcolonial]]>

<![CDATA[Stylistics is a linguistic analysis on literary and non-literary texts. This article is concerned with a systemic stylistic analysis of a poem in terms of Systemic Functional Linguistics and Verbal Art Semiotics. The article uses library research, qualitative data, documentary study, descriptive method and intrinsic-objective approach. The semantic analysis results in both automatized and foregrounded meanings. The automatized meaning produces lexical cohesion and in turn, produces subject matter. Meanwhile, the foregrounded meaning produces the literary meaning and in turn, it creates a theme. Finally, the analysis indicates that the subject matter is about the planning of a marriage, the literary meaning is about the confession of an experienced bride, and the theme is about bridal confession.Keyword: automatized meaning, foregrounded meaning, literary meaning.]]>

<![CDATA[This study focuses on the suffixes {er} and {-an} because these suffixes are the most commonly used suffixes in daily life and thus really productive. There are three problems formulated for this topic: (1) What are the characteristics of stems receiving suffixes {er} and {-an}? (2) What meanings are introduced by suffixes {er} and {an}? (3) What are the distributions of the allomorphs of suffixes {er} and {-an}? The data of this study are morphemes and affixes. Hornbys Oxford Advanced Learners Dictionary (year of 2000) is used. Finally, the present researcher found that the suffixes {er} and {an} are attached to certain verbs, adjectives, and nouns. The suffix {-an} are not attached to verbs. The suffix {-er} is mostly attached to transitive verbs to create three possibilities of meaning. There is only one meaning of the suffix {er} when it is attached to an adjective, and eight meanings of the suffix {er} when it is attached to certain nouns. For suffix {-an}, there are three meanings when it is attached to adjectives and five meanings when it is attached to nouns. There are two meanings of the suffix {-an} when it is attached to nouns. The allomorph of the suffix {-er} are or, -eer /??r/, and ier /??r/, while the allomorphs of the suffix {-an} are ian /?n/, -ian /??n/, and ean /??n/. Keywords: morpheme, derivational suffixes, an agentive nominalization, stem, allomorph]]>

<![CDATA[Oral narratives are considered for their being out-dated, excessively glorifying and exposing the romantic past and therefore useless. Yet, it is almost forgotten that in connection with the sustainability of Indonesia as a nation there are many basic things needs preserving and developing. One of them is about the national consensus on racial and ethnical heterogeneity. The study on the Chinese community in Pecinan (Chinatown) that was conducted several years ago interestingly resulted in some facts about Chinese culture that had been silenced during the New Order regime. Regarding the fact, it is quite interesting to find out oral narratives in the community. This article is concerned with the existence of oral narratives and how they are appreciated. Keywords: oral narratives, ethnicity, race, cultural diffusion, pluralism]]>

<![CDATA[The purpose of this study is twofold, looking into a Philippine dramatic text, Wilfrido Ma. Guerreros three-act play Frustration, and finding the meaning of the work. The aim of bringing to bear upon it the analytical perspectives of New Criticism, Russian Formalism and Structuralism, is to highlight the belief that any approach implemented is but to reveal its covert meaning. This is indirectly agreeing with the credo lart pour lart and that of the so-called instrumentalism [or rather, antirealism] instead of exercising the weird attitude of investigating the political style of pretending to appreciate and be concerned with literary works. Keywords: criticism, colonialism, culture, covert meaning]]>
