Abstract

Derivational affixation is a linguistic process that involves the creation of new words by adding prefixes, suffixes, or infixes to existing words. These affixes can modify the word's part of speech, alter its meaning, or both. The present study had the objective of identifying various types of derivational affixes and examining the morphological transformations they bring about in health-related terms within CNN's online news platform. Employing qualitative research methods informed by Katamba's theoretical framework (2005), the investigation utilized a dataset sourced from the news website https://edition.cnn.com/. The dataset encompassed 30 health-related news articles spanning topics such as COVID-19, mental health, food, beauty, sleep, and pregnancy. Based on data analysis from 30 health news, there were 13 words containing derivational prefixes and 64 words containing derivational suffixes. The words in derivational prefix did not change the part of speech but changed the meaning. In derivational suffixes, there are 7 types of changes that change word from verb to noun (23 words), adjective to noun (14 words), noun to noun (10 words), noun to adjective (7 words), adjective to adverb (5 words), verb to adjective (4 words), and the last noun to verb (1 word). From the findings, it can be concluded that the addition of affixes to words explains the function of sentence structure. Derivational suffixes are found the most because they have many interactions of forms, meanings, and functions. Keywords: derivational affix, health, prefix, suffix, news

Employing a qualitative descriptive approach, the research examined and explained the types and influencing factors of negative politeness strategies in Noah’s performance. The study utilized Brown and Levinson’s theories on politeness strategies, particularly negative politeness, to identify and categorize these strategies and their influencing factors. Additionally, Ramon Papana’s framework for the structural build of stand-up comedy techniques was used to analyze the elements of Noah’s comedy. The study found that Noah frequently used impersonal humor in his jokes. It also revealed that social context significantly impacted the content of the jokes, with Noah purposefully addressing social issues. The findings showed that Noah’s humor often employed negative politeness techniques, such as being indirect, questioning, hedging, and depersonalizing both the speaker and the listener. In conclusion, the negative politeness strategies of pessimism, questioning, hedging, and depersonalization played a crucial role in delivering the punchlines.

Abstract

In the realm of fine arts, it is common for one form of art to draw inspiration from another, a process known as transformation. This research focuses on the film adaptation of literary works, examining the ecranization of novels into films and the use of adaptation theory to convert novel texts into visual films while preserving the essence of the novel as a hypogram. The study employs a qualitative descriptive method, utilizing close reading and close viewing techniques. It classifies the transformations using Pamusuk Eneste's ecranization (1991) approach and Seymour Chatman's interpretation theory (2018) of the change process in novels and films. The findings reveal that films often include additional stories to convey the setting more explicitly. Although various settings are altered, these changes are justified as it is often impractical to visually depict the atmosphere detailed in the novel. The introduction of new characters in the film aligns with the expanded plot, necessitating the inclusion of characters absent in the novel. Additionally, the visualization of characters in the film undergoes modifications, yet remains consistent with the novel's descriptions. Backgrounds are condensed to fit the film's plot, resulting in the omission of some novel locations in the film adaptation.Keyword: transformation, ecranization, novel, film, twilight
