Model Analysis

Structural Tradition
• Structural tradition is set, by the new paradigm in seeing the language phenomenon. Owing to Durkheim in the way looking at the social realities scientifically, Saussure comes to an awareness that people should see the nature of “language science” in different way, than the natural science does.
• Ferdinand de Saussure

• He is the father of “Structuralism” and “Modern Linguistics.”
• Language is an arbitrary sign system approved conventionally.
• Structural tradition starts their analysis on the morphology level. Eugene Nida’s book “Morphology, the Descriptive Analysis of Words” is a big contribution to lay the principles of morphological analysis on various language data.



Immediate Constituent (IC-cutting)
• IC (“unsur langsung”) refers to the units (usually a pair of units) which immediately make up the structure.
• There are 4 models of IC structure analysis, i.e. Nida, Hockett, Nelson, and Wells.
• The principle among the four is just the same; the difference is only on their symbols of cutting.
• For example : “the smart students”
• First, we should identify the pair constituting the structure, “the” and “smart students”
• Then, another structure should be separated to result in “smart” and “students.”
