Abstract

Dalam komunikasi, orang-orang biasanya menyampaikan informasi, persetujuan, penolakan atau negasi, dan seterusnya. Konsep negasi ada disetiap bahasa di dunia. Negasi adalah kontradiksi atau penolakan terhadap sesuatu. Penulis memilih tanda negatif ‘no’ dan ‘not’ sebagai objek dalam mebahas negasi dalam penelitian ini. Tanda tersebut sepertinya memiliki distribusi yang sama dan menyampaikan arti yang mirip dalam negasi. Dengan begitu, studi ini dilakukan untuk menjawab permasalahan yang muncul, yaitu (1) apakah kategori tanda negatif ‘no’ dan ‘not’ berdasarkan distribusinya di frase yang ditemukan di The Jakarta Post edisi Juni 2013 (2) apakah kategori ‘no’ dan ‘not’ berdasarkan distribusinya di klausa yang ditemukan di The Jakarta Post edisi Juni 2013 dan (3) apakah fungsi tanda negatif ‘no’ dan ‘not’ berdasarkan bidang dan fokus kalimat yang ditemukan di The Jakarta Post edisi Juni 2013. Metode penelitian yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah pendekatan kualitatif dan analisis konten atau deskriptif sebagai tipe penelitiannya. Data penelitian ini adalah kalimat yang memuat tanda negatif ‘no’ dan ‘not’ yang diambil dari 4 artikel The Jakarta Post edisi Juni 2013 yang membahas tentang isu politik. Peneliti mengambil 4 artikel berdasarkan variasi mereka tentang tanda negatif ‘no’ dan ‘not’ berdasarkan distribusinya di frase dan klausa. Hasil studi ini menunjukkan bahwa ada tujuh kategori tanda negatif ‘not berdasarkan distribusinya di frase. Empat dari mereka ditemukan di objek, dan ada lima kategori tanda negatif ‘no’ berdasarkan distribusinya di frase, hanya satu dari tanda tersebut yang ditemukan di objek. Sedangkan, ada tiga kategori tanda negatif ‘no’ dan ‘not’ berdasarkan distribusinya di klausa, dimana semuanya ditemukan di objek. Di sisi lain, fungsi tanda negatif berdasarkan bidang dan fokus sangat beragam artinya. Penulis menyarankan kepada peneliti selanjutnya yang menginginkan penelitian tentang topik ini menggunakan teori lain atau meggunakan tanda negatif lainnya di dalam bahasa Inggris. Peneliti selanjutnya juga dapat menganalisis negasi hanya dalam fitur sintaktik atau pun semantiknya saja, atau menambahkan bidang studi lain contohnya fitur morfologi agar penelitiannya semakin lengkap.

English Abstract

In communication, people usually deliver information, agreement, denial or negation, and many more. The concept of negation is universal or exists in every language in the world. Negation is the contradiction or denial of something. The writer chose the negative markers ‘no’ and ‘not’ as the object in discussing the negation in this research. They are just like having the same distribution and conveying the similar meaning in negation. Therefore, this study was done to answer the problems of the research, namely: (1) What are the categories of ‘no’ and ‘not’ based on their distribution in phrase found in The Jakarta Post June 2013; (2) What are the categories of ‘no’ and ‘not’ based on their distribution in clause found in The Jakarta Post June 2013; and (3) What is the function of negative markers ‘no’ and ‘not’ based on the scope and focus of the sentences found in The Jakarta Post June 2013. The method used in this research is qualitative approach and content or document analysis as the type of study. The data of this research were the sentences containing negative markers of ‘no’ and ‘not’ taken from the 4 articles of The Jakarta Post June 2013 which discussed the political issues. The writer took 4 articles based on their variety of negative markers of ‘no’ and ‘not’ in their distribution in phrase and clause. The result of this research shows that there were seven categories of negative marker ‘not’ based on its distribution in phrase. Four of them were discovered in the objects, and there were five categories of negative marker ‘no’ based on its distribution in phrase, in which only one of them discovered in the objects. Meanwhile, there were three categories of negative markers ‘no’ and ‘not’ based on their distribution in clause, in which all of them are discovered in the objects. On the other hand, the function of negative markers based on scope and focus gave variety to their meaning. The writer suggests the next researchers who want to do further research of this topic use other theories or the other negative markers in English. The next researcher can also conduct a research on the negation in its syntactic feature or semantic feature, or elaborate it with another field of study such as the morphological features to make their study more complete.
