ANALISIS KESALAHAN AFIKSASI PADA BERITA MEDIA CETAK KORAN POSMETRO INDRAGIRI HILIR DAN IMPLIKASINYA TERHADAP PEMBELAJARAN BAHASA INDONESIA

Abstract

Language holds a high level of urgency in human survival. As a means of communication, errors in the use of language can result in errors in meaning so that the communicative elements of language are lost in the process of conveying thoughts. Media as a means of public communication needs to uphold this rule. Errors in the use of language (in this case affixation) can lead to public misunderstanding of the news conveyed. This research is presented descriptively. The approach used is a qualitative approach. Errors in the use of affixation in the Pos Metro Indragiri Hilir newspaper were found in several forms, namely prefixes, suffixes, confixes, and infixes. These errors can be a guideline for teachers in schools in choosing Indonesian language learning materials. Material that is not only about correct use is a variation of learning strategies that can be used as an option in teaching affixation to students.
