Analysis of morphological errors in literature papers and learning papers for PGSD students of Mulawarman University
Main Article Content
Abstract
This research focuses on clarifying the variation of morphological errors contained in literary papers and learning learning. The method applied in this study is qualitative descriptive using document analysis. The data analyzed included words, phrases, and language structures that contained morphological errors in both types of papers. The findings of the study revealed errors in affixing, basic morphemes, the use of non-standard forms, errors in the writing of compound terms, and inaccuracies in the use of vocabulary. In literary papers, errors are found such as the use of the terms contributing, practice, and especially, while learning papers show errors such as strategy, technique, skill, and punctuation. These errors show that the understanding of the rules of word formation in Indonesian still needs to be improved. It is hoped that this research can be a consideration for academic authors to pay more attention to morphological aspects so that the written work produced can follow the correct and correct rules of the Indonesian language.
