UNIT I

COMPONENT OF LANGUAGE

A. Introduction to Language

➢ What is language?
Language is the ability to produce and comprehend spoken and written
words; linguistics is the study of language. (and in the case of sign
language, signed) words.
➢ What is the function of language?
The function of language as a way of communication.

Grammar
Because all language obeys a set of combinatory rules, we can
communicate an infinite number of concepts. While every language has a
different set of rules, all languages do obey rules. These rules are known
as grammar. Speakers of a language have internalized the rules and
exceptions for that language’s grammar. There are rules for every level of
language word formation (for example, native speakers of English have
internalized the general rule that -ed is the ending for past-tense verbs, so
even when they encounter a brand-new verb, they automatically know
how to put it into past tense); phrase formation (for example, knowing that
when you use the verb “buy,” it needs a subject and an object; “She buys”
is wrong, but “She buys a gift” is okay); and sentence formation.

Lexicon
Every language has its rules, which act as a framework for meaningful
communication. But what do people fill that framework up with? The
answer is, of course, words. Every human language has a lexicon—the
sum total of all of the words in that language. By using grammatical rules
to combine words into logical sentences, humans can convey an infinite
number of concepts

Introduction to Linguistics
Language is such a special topic that there is an entire field, linguistics,
devoted to its study. Linguistics views language in an objective way, using
the scientific method and rigorous research to form theories about how
humans acquire, use, and sometimes abuse language. There are a few
major branches of linguistics, which it is useful to understand in order to
learn about language from a psychological perspective.

Major levels of linguistics: This diagram outlines the various subfields of


linguistics, the study of language. These include phonetics, phonology,
morphology, syntax, semantics, and pragmatics.

Phonetics and Phonology (ALPHABETHS)

Phonetics is the study of individual speech sounds; phonology is the study of


phonemes, which are the speech sounds of an individual language. These two
heavily overlapping subfields cover all the sounds that humans can make, as well
as which sounds make up different languages. A phonologist could answer the
question, “Why do BAT and TAB have different meanings even though they are
made of thesame three sounds, A, B and T?” for example ALPHABETH.

Morphology (WORDS)

Morphology is the study of words and other meaningful units of language like
suffixes and prefixes. A morphologist would be interested in the relationship
between words like “dog” and “dogs” or “walk” and “walking,” and how people
figure out the differences between those words.

Syntax (SENTENCES & PHRASES)

Syntax is the study of sentences and phrases, or how people put words into the
right order so that they can communicate meaningfully. All languages have
underlying rules of syntax, which, along with morphological rules, make up every
language’s grammar. An example of syntax coming into play in language is
“Eugene walked the dog” versus “The dog walked Eugene.” The order of words is
not arbitrary—in order for the sentence to convey the intended meaning, the
words must be in a certain order.

Semantics and Pragmatics

Semantics, most generally, is about the meaning of sentences. Someone who


studies semantics is interested in words and what real-world object or concept
those words denote, or point to. Pragmatics is an even broader field that studies
how the context of a sentence contributes to meaning—for example, someone
shouting “Fire!” has a very different meaning if they are in charge of a seven-gun
salute than it does if they are sitting in a crowded movie theater.

UNIT 2
PARTS OF SPEECH

Parts of Speech Table


Parts of speech are an important aspect of the language. Understand clearly what
is being said in a sentence. Know how and when to use words correctly. Reflect
more accurately on the English language.

A part of speech (abbreviated form: PoS or POS) is a category of words (or, more
generally, of lexical items) which have similar grammatical properties. Words that
are assigned to the same part of speech generally display similar behavior in terms
of syntax—they play similar roles within the grammatical structure of sentences—
and sometimes in terms of morphology, in that they undergo inflection for similar
properties.

Commonly listed English parts of speech are


1. Noun
2. Verb
3. Adjective
4. Adverb
5. Pronoun
6. Preposition
7. Conjunction
8. Interjection and sometimes Numeral, Article or Determiner.

This is a summary of the 8 parts of speech*. You can find more detail if you click
on each part of speech.

Here is a sentence that contains every part of speech:

interjection pron. conj. adj. noun verb prep. Noun adverb

Well, she and young John walk to school slowly.

Words with More than One Job


Many words in English can have more than one job, or be more than one
part of speech. For example, "work" can be a verb and a noun; "but" can be a
conjunction and a preposition; "well" can be an adjective, an adverb and an
interjection. In addition many nouns can actas adjectives

To analyze the part of speech, ask yourself: "What job is this word doing
in this sentence?" In the table below you can see a few examples. Of course, there
are more, even for some of the words in the table. In fact, if you look in a good
dictionary you will see that the word "but" has six jobs to do:

• verb, noun, adverb, pronoun, preposition and conjuction!

Noun My work is easy.

Verb I work in London.
Conjunction John came but Mary didn't come.

1. The indefinite articles a and an are used before singular nouns that refer to
any one of that person, place or thing;
A clock is an instrument that marks time.
A watch is a clock that you wear on your wrist.

2. The previous sentences do not name a specific clock or watch; they refer to

The articles a and an can refer to a specific singular noun to tell or ask
someone about it for the first time:
I have a clock that is 150 years old.
Her boyfriend gave her a watch for her birthday.

PRONOUN

Topics: Personal Pronouns, Possessive Pronouns, Demonstrative Pronouns


Learning Objectives:
1. Identifying personal pronouns, possessive pronouns and demonstrative
pronouns.
2. Memorizing new vocabularies.
3. Using personal pronouns, possessive pronouns and demonstrative pronouns
into correct English sentences.

A pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun. There are different
kinds of pronouns.

Personal Pronouns
Personal pronouns may be used as: 1) the subject of a verb, or 2) the
object of a verb.

Table of Personal Pronoun

Personal Passive Reflexive Meaning


Pronoun
Subject Object Adjecvtive Pronoun

YOU YOU YOUR YOURS YOURSELF KAMU
THEY THEM THEIR THEIRS THEMSELVES MEREKA
WE US OUR OUR OURSELVES KITA
SHE HER HER HER HERSELF DIA PR
HE HIM HIS HIS HIMSELF DIA LK2
IT IT ITS ITS ITSELF BENDA

➢ Subject Pronouns
The subject of a verb does the action of the verb. The personal
pronouns I, you, he, she, it, we and they can all be used as the subject of
a verb. Study the following two sentences:
Lisa likes cats. She has four cats.

In the first sentence, the proper noun Lisa is the subject of the verb likes.
In the second sentence, the pronoun she is the subject of the verb has.
Here are some more pairs of sentences that show personal pronouns
used as subjects of verbs.
My name is Michael. I am fourteen.

Fransiska D. Luruk, S.Pd.,M.Hum Page 16


English for Agriculture

My father works hard. He works in a factory.


My sister is older than me. She is twelve.
Our dog is very naughty. It likes to chase cats.

➢ Object Pronouns
The object of a verb receives the action of the verb. The personal
pronouns me, you, him, her, it, us and them can all be used as the
object of a verb. Look at the following two sentences:
Lisa likes cats. She likes to stroke them.

In the first sentence, the noun cats is the object of the verb likes. In the
second sentence, the pronoun them is the object of the verb stroke.
Here are some more pairs of sentences that show personal pronouns
used as objects of verbs.
I’m doing my homework. Dad is helping me.
Miss Garcia is very nice. All the children like her.
The car is very dirty. Mom is cleaning it.
Uncle Harry called Mary to ask her a question.

kalimat positif (positive statement).
Contoh:
Mary usually goes swimming on Saturday morning.
Mother always serves our breakfast before we go to school.

D. PRESENT PERFECT CONTINUOUS TENSE

A. What is Perfect Continuous Tense

The present perfect continuous tense shows that something started in the past
and is continuing at the present time (event at the moment of speaking). The
present perfect continuous is formed using the construction
has/have been + the present participle (root + -ing).
Examples:I have been reading Harry Potter for a month now. She has been
waiting for her daughter since 8 am this morning
The two sentences above convey that reading Harry Potter and waiting for the
daughter are activities that began sometime in the past and is not yet finished
in the present.
B. Pattern:
Affirmative sentence: Subject + Have/has + Been+ Verb I + ing + Object +
Adverb (manner, place and time).
Example: I have been writing my diary for two hours.
She has been doing the homework for three hours.

Negative sentence : Subject + have/has + not + Been + Verb I + ing +


Object + Adverb (manner, place and time).

Example: I have not been writing my diary for two hours


She has not been doing the homework for three hours.

Interrogative sentence
1. Yes/no question: Have/has + Subject + Been + Verb I+ ing + Object +
Adverb?
Example: Have you been writing your diary for two hours?
Yes, I have
Have you been teaching English for two hours?
No, I haven’t

2. Information question (Wh Question): Untuk menanyakan subjek dengan


menggunakan who atau what who + what + have/has + been + Verb I+
ing + Object + Adverb?

English)

UNIT 8
READING SKILL
A. Improve Reading Skills
Ask yourself this question: Do I read every word in your own language
when I am reading a schedule, summary, or other outlining document?

The answer is most definitely: No! Reading in English is like reading in


your native language. This means that it is not always necessary to read
and understand each and every word in English. Remember that reading
skills in your native language and English are basically the same.

Here are four different kinds of reading.

✓ Skimming - running the eyes over quickly, to get the gist


✓ Scanning - looking for a particular piece of information
✓ Extensive reading - longer texts for pleasure and needing global
understanding
✓ Intensive reading - shorter texts, extracting specific information,
accurate reading for detail.

Here is a quick overview of the four types of reading skills used in every
language:

1. Skimming
Skimming is used to quickly gather the most important information, or
'gist'. Run your eyes over the text, noting important information. Use
skimming to quickly get up to speed on a current business situation. It's
not essential to understand each word when skimming.
Examples of Skimming:
The Newspaper (quickly to get the general news of the day)
Magazines (quickly to discover which articles you would like to read
in more detail) Business and Travel Brochures (quickly to get
informed)
2. Scanning
Scanning is used to find a particular piece of information. Run your
eyes over the text looking for the specific piece of information you
‘need. Use scanning on schedules, meeting plans, etc. in order to find
the specific details you require. If you see words or phrases that you
don't understand, don't worry when scanning.
Examples of Scanning
The "What's on TV" section of your newspaper.
A train / airplane schedule A conference guide

3. Extensive reading
Extensive reading is used to obtain a general understanding of a
subject and includes reading longer texts for pleasure, as well as
business books. Use extensive reading skills to improve your general
knowledge of business procedures. Do not worry if you understand
each word.
Examples of Extensive Reading
The latest marketing strategy book
A novel you read before going to bed
Magazine articles that interest you
4. Intensive reading
Intensive reading is used on shorter texts in order to extract specific
information. It includes very close accurate reading for detail. Use
intensive reading skills to grasp the details of a specific situation. In
this case, it is important that you understand each word, number or
fact.
Examples of Intensive Reading
A bookkeeping report
An insurance claim
A contract
Exercise

Using these descriptions, how would you read the following? Match
the different types of reading with the categories below. Decide which
one requires you to skim or to scan the text. Which one needs detailed
Intensive reading? What type of text do you read extensively - for
pleasure?
