Style in Written English

1.             Question Tags (Pertanyaan Tegas) adalah suatu pertanyaan  pendek di akhir kalimat pernyataan yang berfungsi untuk mempertegas pernyataan yang bersangkutan.

Contoh :

 

He is a doctor, isn’t he?

         You are not happy, are you?

Mary isn’t here, is she?

 

2.    Redundancy ialah penggunaan kata-kata lebih banyak daripada yang diperlukan untuk menyatakan satu pikiran atau gagasan. Bila kata yang tidak diperlukan itu ditiadakan, arti kalimat tidak berubah. Bentuk redundancy meliputi tautologi, pleonasme, prolixity, sirkumlokusi, repetisi. Secara praktis istilah tautologi dan pleonasme disamakan saja, namun ada yang ingin membedakannya. Begitu juga dengan prolixity, dalam penggunaannya sering dianggap bersinonim dengan tautologi.

Contoh :

1.      Tautologi (tautology)

     Contoh tautologi:

    ”bonus tambahan ekstra” , ”hadiah cuma-cuma” , ”sejarah masa lalu”.

2.  Pleonasme

     Contoh:

     Darah yang merah itu melumuri seluruh tubuhnya.

     Darah melumuri seluruh tubuhnya.

3.  Prolixity

    Contoh:

    Anggur (wine) dideskripsikan secara berlebihan dengan frasa: minuman dewa yang

    sangat lezat ("a nectarian beverage")

    Contoh:

    Ia tersenyum dengan bibirnya.

    Saat subuh pagi itu, ia menunaikan salat. Saat senja sore harinya, ia pergi ke masjid

    untuk salat magrib.

4. Sirkumlokusi (Circumlocution)

    Contoh:

    Psikolog adalah seorang yang memiliki profesi dalam bidang psikologi.

5. Repetisi

    Repetisi adalah perulangan bunyi, suku kata, kata atau bagian kalimat.

    Contoh:

    Ia adalah seorang pelajar yang mempelajari bidangnya dengan tekun.

3.         Participial adjective adalah adjective (kata sifat) yang berbentuk V+ing (Present

   Participle) dan V+ed (Past Participle).

             Contoh :

The girl is entertained. Girl merasa “terhibur”. The show is entertaining.

I am interested. He is interesting.

4.       Pronoun-antecedent agreement merupakan persesuaian antara pronoun dengan antecedent dalam hal number, person, dan gender.

Contoh :

You should take off your shoes there.

They took off their shoes there.

5.       Inderect object mengidentifikasikan untuk siapa tindakan tersebut dibuat. Direct

         object dan inderect object adalah orang, tempat, atau sesuatu yang berbeda. Direct object dalam kalimat berikut ini adalah yang dicetak tebal. Indirect onject yang bercetak miring.

Contoh :

The instructor gave his students A’s.

PASSIVE VOICE

Passive voice adalah suatu grammatical construction (bentuk gramatikal) dimana subject kalimat tidak melakukan aksi, melainkan menerima aksi atau ditindaklanjuti (receiver of action) oleh agent lain (doer of action) baik disebutkan ataupun tidak. 

Sebaliknya, pada konstruksi active, subject berhubungan langsung dengan verb dengan bertindak sebagai pelaku aksi.

Kalimat aktif dapat ditransformasi menjadi pasif, namun hanya transitive verb (diikuti direct object) yang dapat diberlakukan demikian.
