Key words: parallelism and aljazeera news

In English language, there are two kinds of language, they are spoken
andwritten language. However, many students who still get difficulties to
understand English in written. Because in written not only grammatically must be
correct but also the balance of text must relevant. In this research, the writer
focuses on parallelism. The meaning of parallelism is the repetition of chosen
grammatical form within sentence but the idea in sentence must logically related
should be expressed in grammatical similar construction. Parallelism has two
parts, they are types and pattern. Both of them are most interesting and include in
one of material for student in learning process of English.
The objectives of this research are: (1) to find out types of parallelism found
in Aljazeera News posted in September 2013and (2) to describe the pattern of
parallelism found in Aljazeera News posted in September 2013.
Descriptive qualitative research is used as the design of research to reach the
objectives of this research. The data of this research is the types and pattern of
parallelism. Meanwhile, the data source of this research is found in Aljazeera
News posted in September 2013.
Based on the findings, the writer found that (1) there are six types
ofparallelism, they arerepetitive, gender-matched, synonymia, synonymous,
synthetic, and antithetical. But in here, the writer just found four types. The types
of parallelismthat were found in 15 text news of the Aljazeera News posted in

3synonymous, and the last is 2synthetic. And then, (2)almost the text in Aljazeera

Kata-katakunci: kesamaandanberita aljazeera
Dalam bahasa inggris, ada dua jenis bahasa yaitu bahasa lisan dan tertulis.
Namun banyak siswa masih kesulitan untuk memahami bahasa inggris secara
tertulis. Karena bahasa inggris secara tertulis tidak hanya tata bahasa yang harus
benar, tetapi keseimbangan teks juga harus sesuai.Arti dari kesamaan adalah
pengulangan dari pilihan bentuk bersifat tatabahasa diantara kalimat tapi ide di
kalimat harus secara logika berhubungan harus diekspresikan pada konstruksi
serupa yang bersifat tatabahasa. Kesamaan mempunyai dua bagian, mereka adalah
jenis dan pola. Keduanya menarik untuk diperhatikan dan sudah termasuk dalam
salah satu materi untuk murid dalam proses belajar dari bahasa inggris.
Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah sebagai berikut:(1)Untuk mengetahui jenisjenis kesamaan yang ditemukan di berita Aljazeera yang ditempatkan pada bulan
september tahun 2013, dan (2) Untuk menggambarkan pola yang ditemukan di
berita Aljazeera yang ditempatkan pada bulan september tahun 2013.
Penelitian ini menggunakan desain penelitian kualitatif deskriptif agar dapat
mencapai tujuanya. Data dari penelitian ini adalah jenis dan pola dari kesamaan.
Sementara itu sumber data penelitian ini ditemukan dalam berita Aljazeera yang
ditempatkan pada bulan September tahun 2013.
Berdasarkan dari hasil penelitian, penulis menemukan bahwa (1) ada enam
jenis kesamaan, mereka adalah kesamaan perulangan, kesamaan pencocokan
genus, kesamaan synonymia, kesamaan bersinonim, kesamaan buatan, dan

kesamaan antithetical. Tetapi penulis hanya menemukan empat jenis. Jenis dari
kesamaan yang ditemukan pada 15 teks berita dari kabar Aljazeera ditempatkan
pada bulan September tahun 2013 ada 114. (2) Kemudian hampir teks di
Aljazeera yang ditempatkan pada bulan September 2013 menggunakanpola.
Tetapikebanyakan pola dari kesamaan yang ditemukan pada program berita dari
Aljazeera pada bulan September tahun 2013 adalah katakerja.

10

Penulis menyarankan untuk peneliti selanjutnya yang tertarik dalam
melakukan penelitian yang serupa bahwa penelitian ini dapat memberikan
pemahaman tentang kesamaan. Selain itu, penelitian ini bisa memberikan
kontribusi informasi kepada peneliti yang ingin memilih kesamaan, tepatnya
dalam menganalisis jenis dan pola dari kesamaan dalam suatu kalimat.
