ABSTRACT
This Thesis entitled An Analysis of Phrasal Verbs Found in Khaled
Hosseini’s Novel A Thousand Splendid Suns. The writer discusses about phrasal verbs
found in this novel. Phrasal Verb verb is verb followed by particle. There are 3 problems discussed in this thesis, such as types of phrasal verbs, function of particles in phrasal verbs constructions and types of semantic distinctions found in phrasal verbs in this novel. In analyzing phrasal verbs, the writer applies some theories. In analyzing the types of phrasal verbs, the theory used from Greenbaun and Quirk (1973), Veres (1998), dan Vlad (1998) which state that there are 2 types of phrasal verbs; transitive and intransitive phrasal verbs. And Collins (1991) provides that the intransitive phrasal verb has only one pattern (V+ADV), and the transitive phrasal verb has 4 patterns, such as (V+ADV+N), (V+N+ADV), (V+PRON+ADV), and (V+REFL+ADV). In analyzing the function of particles, the theory used from Heaton (1985:114) provides 5 functions of particles found in phrasal verbs in this novel; 1). assuming a new or subsidiary meaning, 2). assuming a new or special meaning with a verb but do not change the normal meaning of that verb, 3). providing stress emphasis or a sense of completion, 4). functioning in a similar way to ordinary adverbs, helping to form a collocation which maintains a literal meaning, and 5). similar in function to prepositions. And the last, in analyzing the types of semantic distinctions, the theory used from Fraser (1976) which states there are 3 types of semantic distinctions found in phrasal verbs; figurative, literal and completive.
ABSTRAK
Skripsi ini berjudul An Analysis Of Phrasal Verbs Found in Khaled
Hosseini’s Novel A Thousand Splendid Suns, membahas tentang phrasal verbs yang
ditemukan dalam novel. Phrasal verbs adalah kombinasi dari kata kerja + partikel, yang dibahas antara lain; jenis phrasal verbs, fungsi partikel dalam pembentukan phrasal
verbs, dan tipe semantik yang ditemukan dalam phrasal verbs. Untuk menganalisis phrasal verbs digunakan beberapa teori. Dalam menganalisis jenis Phrasal Verbs
digunakan teori Greenbaun and Quirk (1973), Veres (1998), dan Vlad (1998), yang menyatakan bahwa phrasal verbs diklasifikasikan dalam 2 kategori yaitu transitif dan intransitif phrasal verbs dan di dukung oleh teori Collins (1991) yang menyatakan bahwa Intransitif phrasal verbs hanya memiliki satu pola (V+ADV), transitif phrasal
verbs memiliki 4 pola, yaitu (V+ADV+N), (V+N+ADV), (V+PRON+ADV), and
(V+REFL+ADV). Untuk menganalisis fungsi partikel dalam pembentukan phrasal verbs digunakan teori Heaton (1985:114) yang menyatakan bahwa terdapat 5 fungsi yang ditemukan dalam pembentukan phrasal verb yaitu, 1). membentuk makna baru, 2). membentuk makna baru atau makna spesial namun tetap mempertahankan makna dari kata kerja itu sendiri, 3). menyatakan penegasan atau penyelesaian pada suatu action, 4). fungsi yang mirip dengan adverb namun tetap mempertahankan makna harfiah, dan 5). fungsi yang mirip dengan preposisi. Dan untuk menganalisis tipe semantik yang muncul dalam phrasal verbs digunakan teori Fraser (1976) yang menyatakan bahwa phrasal
verbs secara semantik dapat diklasifikasikan dalam 3 bagian yaitu, 1). makna harfiah (literal phrasal verb), 2). makna kiasan (figurative phrasal verb), dan 3). makna
penyelesaian (completive phrasal verbs).
Dari hasil analisis terhadap phrasal verbs di novel ini ditemukan 9 partikel pembentuk phrasal verbs, yaitu partikel off, out, in, up, over, on, down, away, dan
around. Hasil temuan lainnya: terdapat 2 jenis phrasal verbs yaitu transitif dengan 4 pola
(V+ADV+N), (V+N+ADV), (V+PRON+ADV), and (V+REFL+ADV) dan intransitif
phrasal verbs dengan hanya 1 pola (V+ADV) ditemukan di novel ini dan semua partikel
yang membentuk phrasal verbs di novel ini memiliki 2 jenis phrasal verbs tersebut. Terdapat 5 fungsi dari partikel dalam pembentukan phrasal verb di novel ini, temuan lainnya bahwa semua partikel (off, out, in, up, over, on, down, away, around) dalam phrasal verbs memiliki fungsi partikel untuk membentuk makna baru, 4 partikel (out, in, up, over) dalam phrasal verbs memiliki fungsi partikel untuk menambah makna spesial namun tetap mempertahankan makna dari kata kerja itu sendiri, 5 partikel (off, out, up, over, down) dalam phrasal verbs memiliki fungsi partikel untuk menyatakan penegasan atau penyelesaian pada suatu action, 6 partikel (out,in, up, down, away, around) dalam
phrasal verbs memiliki fungsi partikel yang mirip dengan adverb namun tetap
mempertahankan makna harfiah, dan hanya partikel “down” dalam phrasal verb memiliki fungsi partikel yang mirip dengan preposisi. Terdapat 3 tipe semantik dalam
phrasal verbs di novel ini, yaitu figurative, literal and completive phrasal verbs; 9
