2 Adjustment of Consonant Clusters
The adjustment of consonant clusters are not translated and accepted into Bahasa Indonesia, if possible to maintain its visual form. For example:
3 Adjustment of Affixes
The adjustment of affixes can be classified in two groups; adjustment of suffix and adjustment of prefix. The adjustment of suffix is absorbed
into Bahasa Indonesia as a part of full words. The words such as standardisasi Standar +disasi
, implementasi implement +tasi and obyektif obyek +tif
are full absorbed, instead of standar, implemen, and obyek. The adjustment of prefix is as follows: aberration become aberasi, anemia become
anemia. Another expert, Kridalaksana, has a statement that the loan words
used in Indonesia must be based on Ejaan yang Disempurnakan EYD The Standard Indonesian Spelling System. According to Kridalaksana 1993,
