MORPHOLOGY, What Is That?

   
     1.     Morphology
      Morphology is the branch of linguistics (and one of the major components of grammar) that studies word structures, especially in terms of morpheme, which is the smallest units of language.
      Morphology is a studies the form of word. (Oxford University)
      Morphology is a study about of word and how the word formed. (Laurel J. Brintron (2002.59-60))



1.1.         Morpheme 
            Morpheme is a minimal unit of meaning or grammatical fungtion. It is a minimal unit which indicates the meaning. For example of elements are –s, -er, -ed, -ing, ect. 
      e.g : “reopened” consists of three morphemes: re-, open, -ed
                            re-       : again
                            open    : open
                            -ed       : indicating past tense 


     2.     Free Morpheme and Bound Morpheme
There are two types of morphemes:
1.      Free Morpheme is the morphemes which can stand by them self as single words/can stand alone.
Such as:  bad, work, happy, normal, book, kind, play, understand, open, beauty, ETC.

2.      Bound Morpheme is the morphemes which can not stand alone and are typically attached to another forms: suffix and affix.
Such as: -ly, -er, -ed, -s, -est , un-, re-, -ing, -un, ETC.


2.1.         Lexical Morphemes And Functional Morphemes
a.      Lexical Morphemes are free morphemes which fall into 3 catagories set: nouns, adjectives, and verbs as a content.
b.      Functional morphemes are also free morphemes, but the se consists largely of the functional words in the language such as conjunctions, prepositions, articles, and pronouns.


2.2.         Preffix and Suffix
a.      Preffix added in to the beginning of word.
Such as: Un-,  Mis-, Non-, Re-, Pra-, Sub-, Anti-, ETC.
b.      Suffix added in to the end of word.
Such as: -ly, -ful, -est, -s, -es, -er, -ed, -dom, -ness, -ing, ETC.



    3.     Example of Preffix and Suffix 
           a.      Preffix
    Re                      Play
(bound)                 (free)

                     Mis          -       Understand         -          ing
                  (bound)                 (free)                   (bound)

Someone Like You
By: Adelle

I heard
That you're settled down
That you
Found a girl
And you're
Married now

I heard
That your dreams came true
Guess she gave you things
I didn't give to you

Old friend
Why are you so shy
Ain't like you to hold back
Or hide from the light

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it
I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That for me it isn't over

Never mind
I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
"Don't forget me," I begged
"I'll remember," you said
"Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead"
Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead
Yeah

You know how the time flies
Only yesterday
It was the time of our lives
We were born and raised
In a summer haze
Bound by the surprise
Of our glory days

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it
I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That for me it isn't over

Never mind
I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
"Don't forget me," I begged
"I'll remember," you said
"Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead"

Nothing compares
No worries or cares
Regrets and mistakes
They are memories made
Who would have known
How bittersweet this would taste

Never mind
I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
"Don't forget me," I begged
"I'll remember," you said
"Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead"

Never mind
I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
"Don't forget me," I begged
"I'll remember," you said
"Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead"

Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead

It's me, Vira.







                Welcome!!! OK, sebagai postingan pertama, aku akan memperkenal diri terlebih dahulu. My name is Vira Budiarti. Kamu bisa panggil aku vira, virbud, virung, rung, yung (whats…..). Aku lahir di Pekanbaru, 05 May 1999. Aku anak pertama and aku punya adik laki-laki. Aku lulusan TK Al-Hidayah Pekanbaru, SD Negeri 016 Pekanbaru, MDA Al-Fatah Pekanbaru, SMP Negeri 2 Pekanbaru, SMA Negeri 2 Pekanbaru. And now, aku adalah mahasiswa semester 3 Universitas Lancang Kuning Pekanbaru, Fakultas Keguruan dan Ilmu Pendidikan Bahasa Inggris.
 So what? Sebagai mahasiswa English Department, izinkan aku combine or mixing “Bahasa” and “English” seperti Anak JakSel (literally, basically, usually, which is, even, etc.) hehehehe. Ok lets know me more!
 Honestly, aku adalah orang yang introvert. Kamu pasti tau dong apa itu introvert? Dari artikel dan buku yang aku baca, Introvert itu adalah kepribadian manusia yang memiliki sifat lebih cendrerung menutup diri dari kehidupan luar. Ciri-cirinya itu sendiri adalah pemalu, pendiam, pemikir, suka menyendiri, suka berimajinasi, suka mendengarkan cerita orang daripada bercerita, etc. Dari semua ciri-ciri itu, bisa dikatakan aku memilikinya.

              
              Aku pemalu didepan orang yang belum aku kenal, ya for example aku tidak akan mulai berkenalan sebelum dia yang minta kenalan duluan. Pendiam?of course, hanya di socmed doang aku banyak ngomong, in real life? no. Suka menyendiri? Yess, kalau hari libur aku suka menyendiri dikamar, usually aku nonton Kdrama, Variety Show, and Music Video idol Kpop. I think dengan cara itu aku bisa menghilangkan stress dari banyaknya tugas-tugas kuliahku. Suka berimajinasi? ya aku suka berimajinasi, sometimes berimajinasi tentang jika suatu saat nantik aku jadi orang kaya, pasti aku bisa keluar negeri especially South Korea ketemu idol-idol, nonton konser, beli album, eh….the most important sih aku akan berangkatin orang tua ku naik haji, PASTI! (Yang ini sih semoga jadi kenyataan, amin). Last, aku suka mendengarkan cerita orang or curhatan teman-teman, I don’t know why, aku suka mendengarkan cerita teman-teman ku soal pacarnya yang selingkuhlah, gebetannya yang php, mantannya yang ngajak balikan, dll. Aku ini seorang good listener loh guys, so jangan sungkan untuk curhat dengan ku dengan cara comment setiap postinganku, hehe.


                So, teman-teman sekilas  saja about myself. Karena ini postingan tentang perkenalan, next akan ada postingan-postingan yang akan lebih bermanfaat. Jadi jangan bosan-bosan untuk baca blog ku ini. Mohon maaf kalau ada kata-kata yang salah, karena kebenaran hanya datang dari Allah SWT dan kesalahan datang dari manusia itu sendiri.
