Chaerunnisa, Erwanda Resti (2018) A Corpus-Driven Research On The Case Of Degree Adverbials Very, Really, Quite, And Pretty In Blog Authorship Corpus. Sarjana thesis, Universitas Brawijaya.
Abstract
Degree adverbial atau adverbial tingkat perbandingan merupakan elemen penting yang memberikan informasi mengenai seberapa banyak atau sampai sejauh mana. Berdasar fungsi tersebut, banyak degree adverbial yang bisa digunakan, beberapa dari mereka adalah very, really, quite dan pretty. Keempatnya tergolong umum diantara yang lain karena sering digunakan secara bergantian tanpa alasan yang jelas. Namun, seperti yang sudah dibuktikan oleh ahli bahasa, tiap kata memiliki kecenderungan masing-masing dalam hal kolokasi dan semantic prosody. Dengan demikian, masalah penelitian yang diajukan untuk penelitian ini adalah; (1) Bagaimana masing-masing degree adverbial very, really, quite, dan pretty berkolokasi di Blog Authorship Corpus?; (2) Semantic prosody apa yang dimiliki oleh masing-masing degree adverbial very, really, quite, and pretty berdasarkan kolokasi mereka? Pendekatan kualitatif diterapkan dalam penelitian ini dengan bantuan metode korpus dalam pengumpulan dan analisis data menggunakan perangkat lunak khusus korpus, yaitu WordSmith 4.0. Sumber data berasal dari Blog Authorship Corpus, sebuah korpus tanpa anotasi, yang dapat dengan mudah diakses melalui situsnya. Hasil dari analisis menunjukkan bahwa keempat degree adverbial berkolokasi dengan kata dari kelas adjektiva dan adverbia. Hanya really dan quite yang terlihat berkolokasi dengan verba, sedangkan really juga terlihat berkolokasi dengan preposisi dalam kasus tertentu. Keempat degree adverbial seringkali ditemukan berada pada posisi tengah, hanya dibedakan oleh kolokasinya menghasilkan beberapa pola yang berbeda. Favorable semantic prosody terlihat mendominasi very dan quite, sedangkan neutral dan unfavorable semantic prosody masing-masing melekat pada degree adverbial pretty dan really. Peneliti menyarankan untuk peneliti berikutnya dapat memperluas penelitian serupa dengan menyelidiki faktor yang sekiranya mempengaruhi dalam perbedaan preferensi mereka dengan menggunakan korpus berbeda seperti British Academic Written English Corpus.
English Abstract
Degree adverbial is one of essential elements to provide information about how much, how many, and to what extent. Based on that function, there are so many degree adverbials that can be used, some of them are very, really, quite, and pretty. These four are the most common out of all, seeing that they often are being used interchangeably without any specific reasons. However, as proven by other linguists, it seems that every word has their own preferences in terms of collocations and the semantic prosody that arise. Thus, the problems of this research that the researcher proposed are; (1) How does each degree adverbial very, really, quite, and pretty collocate in Blog Authorship Corpus?; (2) What is the semantic prosody of each degree adverbial very, really, quite, and pretty based on their collocations? Qualitative approach was employed to conduct this research while corpus method was used in collecting and analyzing the data with the help of corpus software WordSmith 4.0. The data source came from Blog Authorship Corpus, a non-annotated corpus, which can be easily accessed through its website. The result of analysis has shown that all degree adverbials collocate with words from both adjective and adverb word classes. Only really and quite are seen to collocate with verbs, while at the same time really also co-occurs with a preposition in a particular case. They mostly occur in medial position, differ only by their collocations forming several different patterns. Pleasant semantic prosody favored both very and quite, while neutral and unpleasant semantic prosody surround pretty and really respectively. Lastly, since this study, the researcher suggests for future research to extend the research into investigating the factors that may contribute in the differences of their preferences using a different genre of corpus such as British Academic Written English Corpus.
