Abstract

Derivational affixes is the word formation process that found to creates a new word by attaching affixes to the root which creates a new lexeme, alter the meaning and may also the part of speech. In this research, the researcher discusses the contrast between English and Sundanese derivational affixes. This research focuses on three issues: (1) what types of derivational affixes in English and Sundanese are found in The Black Cat (183) and Ucing Hideung (2006)? (2) How are the morphological process of derivational affixes in English and Sundanese found in The Black Cat (183) and Ucing Hideung (2006)? (3) What are the similarities and the differences of derivational affixes in English and Sundanese found in The Black Cat (183) and Ucing Hideung (2006)?. The researcher uses the theory of Geert Booij (2007) for types of derivational affixes, the theory of O’Grady & Guzman (1996) for analyzing the morphological process and the theory of Jack Fisiak (1981) for analyzing the similarities and the differences of derivational affixes in English and Sundanese. The English data were taken from the short story “The Black Cat (1843)” by Edgar Allan Poe and the Sundanese data taken from the same story but has been translated into Sundanese by Yuliana Mustofa entitled “Ucing Hideung (2006)” that was published in Cupumanik Magazine no 36. The method applied in this research was the descriptive qualitative method. The result of this research shows that there were found four types of derivational affixes namely, nominalization, verbalization, adjectivalization, and adverbialization. Meanwhile, in Sundanese not found the type of adverbialization. The morphological process of the derivational affixes in English and Sundanese created a new lexeme, altered the meaning of the word and some also change the part of speech. The similarities of English and Sundanese derivational affixes are there were found same types of affixes found in English and Sundanese, there are prefix, suffix and multifix in English or confix in Sundanese. Both English and Sundanese were found the same types of derivational affixes such as nominalization, verbalization, and adjectivalization. The differences are, nominalization has the greater number than other types in English, but in Sundanese verbalization which has the greater number. In the context of meaning, English derivational affixes have the prefixes that have negative meaning, but Sundanese derivational affixes don’t have the prefixes that denote negative meaning. In Sundanese, there were found the verbalization formed by nasalization process and partial reduplication, while not found in English. The suggestion is through learning the affixation especially derivational affixes, it can enrich vocabulary skill by categorizing one word into various word with different structures and meanings.
