Abstract
Word formation process is the tool to form a new word based on several techniques that involve the word itself. The aim of this research is to analyze and to find out the types and the most dominant types of word formation process of words related to food used by food vloggers. The data of this research were utterances from the food vloggers namely Luke Martin, Trevor James, Mark Wiens, Mina Oh, Mike Chen, and Sonny Side in their vlogs on YouTube. The data were analyzed based on several word formation process theories. This research used descriptive method. Based on the data analysis, the researcher found 196 words containing the word formation process related to food and 7 out of 11 types of word formation process. They are (1) borrowing, (2) compounding, (3) clipping, (4) conversion, (5) derivation, (6) inflection, and (7) multiple process. The finding shows that this research is dominated with borrowing process with the frequency of 60 data (31%).
构词法是一种基于涉及单词本身的几种技术来形成新词的工具。本研究的目的是分析和找出食物视频博主使用的食物相关词汇的构词过程的类型和最主要的类型。这项研究的数据是来自美食视频博主Luke Martin, Trevor James, Mark Wiens, Mina Oh, Mike Chen和Sonny Side在YouTube上的视频博客中的话语。基于几种构词过程理论对数据进行了分析。本研究采用描述性研究方法。通过数据分析,研究人员发现了196个包含与食物相关的构词过程的单词,以及11种构词过程中的7种。它们是(1)借用,(2)复合,(3)剪切,(4)转换,(5)派生,(6)屈折,(7)多重过程。研究结果表明,该研究以借用过程为主,频率为60个数据(31%)。
期刊介绍:
Asiatic is the very first international journal on English writings by Asian writers and writers of Asian origin, currently being the only one of its kind. It aims to publish high-quality researches and outstanding creative works combining the broad fields of literature and linguistics on the same intellectual platform. Asiatic will contain a rich collection of selected articles on issues that deal with Asian Englishes, Asian cultures and Asian literatures in English, including diasporic literature and Asian literatures in translation. Articles may include studies that address the multidimensional impacts of the English Language on a wide variety of Asian cultures (South Asian, East Asian, Southeast Asian and others). Subjects of debates and discussions will encompass the socio-economic facet of the Asian world in relation to current academic investigations on literature, culture and linguistics. This approach will present the works of English-trained Asian writers and scholars, having English as the unifying device and Asia as a fundamental backdrop of their study. The three different segments that will be featured in each issue of Asiatic are: (i) critical writings on literary, cultural and linguistics studies, (ii) creative writings that include works of prose fiction and selections of poetry and (iv) review articles on Asian books, novels and plays produced in English (or translated into English). These works will reflect how elements of western and Asian are both subtly and intensely intertwined as a result of acculturation, globalisation and such.
