Analisis Keefektifan Kalimat Bahasa Indonesia Dalam Karya Tulis Ilmiah

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to analyze the effectiveness of Indonesian sentences in scientific writing. This research is a descriptive-qualitative study with primary data obtained directly from the data source in the form of scientific writing (thesis) by Politeknik Negeri Bali students and lecturer. Data was collected by observing method assisted by note-taking techniques. Furthermore, the data were analyzed using a qualitative descriptive method based on an inductive paradigm, namely from special to general paradigm. Research results are presented with formal and informal methods. This research is based on General Linguistics Theory with the basic concept of effective sentences. The results of the research show that students and lecturer who compose their scientific writing pay little attention to the effectiveness of sentences. This is proven by the number of ineffective sentences found in scientific writing. The ineffectiveness of the sentences is caused by inappropriateness, incongruity, inaccuracy, inefficiency, and illogicality. This is because the students and lecturer who write the scientific writing are not careful in choosing and using vocabulary.
