3. Pure Morphology
In the data, not all morphological problems which are happened in the research can be included as interface since there are some words which only have
morphological problem such as roaches and y’all. The word ‘roaches’ is in origin of ‘cockroaches’. It experiences clipping on the word cock- so that it becomes the
word ‘roaches’. While the word ‘y’all’ experiences different morphological phenomena. It experiences cliticization which means the process of reducing the
form of free morpheme so it becomes bound morpheme Dobrovolsky, O’ Grady Katamba; 1997.
4. Pure Syntax
The fourth is analyzing the data based on its syntactical process. Since Black English is known because the structure of its sentences is different from
Standard English which most people use, the researcher finds these results. The first, most of Black English expressions tend to omit auxiliaries such as to be is,
am, are, do, does, did, have, has in order to make the sentence simpler. The

42 The examples above, shows that the omission of auxiliary to be, do, does,
did, have, and has result in ambiguity toward the meaning of the expressions since readers do not know what the real meaning is.
The second, Black English also tends to use improper tense for its expressions. When an expression should use Simple Present tense since it refers to
an actual activity, it uses Present Continuous tense when it is not an activity which is in progress such as the examples below:
[cc]
Please, man, I’m not getting my sex at home.
[dd]
I’m not letting you in until you do
[ee]
I told you I am not going into protective custody.
[ff]
I’m going.
[gg]
I know you can handle it, but I’m worrying about me. But the use of improper tense is not only restricted when the speaker use
Present Continuous as the substitution of Simple Present. It also occurs when the speaker uses Simple Past as the substitution of Simple Present or vice versa and
also in showing possession of something as the examples below:
[hh]
He do surveillance.
[ii]
I came to take out Megan.
[jj]
We kicked y’all ass.
[kk]
Me and him got the same mama.
[ll]
I got too many crashes on my file.
