    List pertanyaan Kel. 1 English Morphology:

    1. There are only examples of the building-blocks of language?, but what is the meaning
    of the building-blocks of language itself? (Achmad Noven_33)
    2. In your ppt you say "Not every word can be put in a dictionary, not even in a
    complete dictionary imaginable" so how do we know a word that is not in the
    dictionary ? (Riska Diana_9)
    3. Can you explain to me, do 'the word has predictable meaning' and 'the words with
    unpredictable meaning' have same meaning ? If they're different, please tell me about
    the different of both! (Novi Nur Ramadhani_10)
    4. Can you explain more about the difference between words as types and words as
    tokens? (Zahrotus Sa’diah_14)
    5. On the 10th slide there is the term onomatopoeic. what onomatopoeic means? (Irma
    Iwanatus yang Sholihah_42)

    The Answer

    1. Word as building-blocks maksudnya adalah kata sebagai dasar dari sebuah bahasa.
    Sebuah kata yang tersusun akan membentuk phrase, clause, sentence, paragraph dan
    seterusnya. Jika dianalogikan pada sebuah bangunan, kata adalah sebuah fondasi atau
    seperti batu bata.
    2. So the English vocabulary has developed from time to time.
    Surely there will be words that are found out of nowhere, but when you look at the
    dictionary it is not certain what the meaning is written there.
    There are two kinds of words we can predict their meaning:
    1. Onomapotoeic words
    2. Words with prefix and suffix
    3. In my opinion the word has predictable meaning and the words with unpredictable
    meaning is different. And these differences can be seen from the example of the
    meaning of the word contained in it.
    4. Token is a number of word or single type, if you want to know how many token in
    one sentence, you must count all word although there are the same word in one
    sentence. And words as Type is a number of word also but not all word is a type,
    when there are more than one the same word we only count one. To other example :
    “I love you more than I love him” in here there are 8 words so the tokens are 8. But in
    in this sentences there are 2 “I” and "love', we only count it one, well in this sentence
    there are 6 type.
    5. Onomatopoeic words : are words that express sounds.
    example : ringing sounds, continuous sounds, impact sounds, human sounds, bird
    sounds, animal sounds, etc.
    Merupakan kata yang memberikan makna dengan berdasarkan suara yang mudah
    dipahami
