A Morphological study of chinese students' speech at Petra Christian University

This project is a morphological study on the language
used among the Chinese ethnic students in Petra Christian
University. The writer herself, as a Chinese ethnic
student, is aware of the fact that Chinese ethnic students
in Petra, unconsciously use words from many languages as
they speak. It means that they tend to combine two or more
different languages in forming a sentence. Additionally,
in combining those languages, they make use of affixation
to be attached to the root words. This kind of mixed
language is predicted to be called Bahasa Indonesia Pasaran
(Go, 1962:5). Moreover, in order to strengthen her
analysis, the writer limits the discussuion on the language
spoken among the chienese students of Petra Christian
University only.
In this thesis, the writer wants to find out what
languages of the root wcrds are used by the students of
Petra come from and what affixes they used with the root
words. In order to support her analysis, the writer
collects the data by recording conversations held by
students of Petra Christian University in several
department 'and places, for example the English department
in B building library, cafetaria, Petra Tower, Banks, Mako
Menwa, and with a limit of time, and reading books which
have relationship with the topic she has chosen. The result
of the recordings were transcribed and classified into some
tables.
The table divides into four languages found as the
root words of the informants.The four languages are
Indonesian, Javanese, English, and Chinese. It is also
found that Javanese affixes are used with those root
words.Besides, the Indonesian affixes also found to be used
in the Indonesian and English root word.
