1. Data Collection
In the section of the data collection, the data of {en-} prefixation was taken from
Oxford Advanced Learner’s English Dictionary as the main source of the primary data. The data of the complex words of the {en-} prefixation was
taken using population method in the certain page with the initial letters {en}. While the data of complex words of the {-en} suffixation was taken from Oxford
Advanced Learner’s English Dictionary using population method base on alphabetic sequence it means the data was collected on each page. Although in the
process of collecting the data, the present writer found stem with both prefix and suffix {en-...-en}. After the data was collected, the data was put in the table to
classify the words that contain stems with prefix {en-}, suffix {-en}, and both prefix and suffix {en-...-en}. Then the present writer classified the words that
contain stems with prefix {en-}, suffix {-en}, and both prefix and suffix {en} in lexical categories into different table. After that, the present writer selected the
table which contain adjective stems with prefix {en-}, suffix {-en}, and both prefix and suffix {en-...-en}. The last step was
providing the stem’s phonetics transcription and the meaning of the stem.
2. Data Analysis
The data analysis on this thesis was divided into four main sections. Each section also consists of several steps in order to analyze deeply. For the first
section, the present writer tries to analyze the characteristics of the adjective stem with the prefix {en-}. The characteristics will be analyzed based on the origin, and
syllable. First, the origin the prefix {en} and the suffix {-en} along with the stems
will be checked in the etymology dictionary to know the origin of the affix {en} and the stems. Then, the stem will be analyzed based on morphology feature such
as syllable so the present writer will know if there is a connection between the characteristics to the reason the stems can be attached to the prefix {en-} or the
suffix {-en} separately. For the second section, the data will be analyzed in based on phonology
analysis. The analysis will include the phonology rule and the changes in the complex words. The first step is to try to identify the data that undergo phonology
rules through the phonetics transcription of the stems and complex words. Then analyzing the phonological conditioning or the phonology rules that affect the
word formation of the {en-} prefixation of {-en} suffixation. This step has the purpose to know the changes that occur when the word formation is happened.
In the third section, the data will be analyzed based on the changes in meaning. First step is try to find out the meaning of the prefix {en-} and the suffix
{-en} and the meaning of stems. The second step is to analyze the changes of meaning before and after the word formation. After finding the changes of the
meaning, the complex words will be analyzed as the function change along with the meaning. this step has the purpose to know the affect of word formation on
meaning and function and to analyze deeper on the characteristics of the complex word after the process of word formation.
The fourth section, the data will be compared to see the differences on the data. The first step is to try to find the differences in the characteristics,
phonological influence and the meaning of both the stem word and the complex
