Abstract
ABSTRACT
Language is the main point in communication, both spoken and written. Communication cannot be separated from the human’s life, so that language becomes one of the humans need in their lives. By the language, people can understand what other people say, get information from others, share idea, express feeling, emotion, desire, mind, etc. Due to this fact, we do need a good knowledge and understanding to know the meaning of words, whether the words are clear or implied meaning. So, the researcher is interested in doing research in phrasal verbs because it has idiomatic meaning including non-idiomatic meaning, semi- idiomatic meaning, and fully-idiomatic meaning. Besides, the form is also interesting to be analyzed because its form can be transitive, intransitive, and both transitive and intransitive.
According to the background, the study is conducted to answer the following problems: (1) “What types of phrasal verbs are used in Crooks’ Christmas?”, (2) “What is the idiomatic meaning of phrasal verbs used in Crooks’ Christmas?, and (3) “How is the idiomatic meaning of phrasal verbs used in Crooks’ Christmas?”. The data of this research are taken from “Crook Christmas” drama text in ‘The Play Goes On’ book. In analyzing the data, the researcher uses descriptive qualitative method. This research uses descriptive qualitative method because the researcher analyzes and interprets the research object.
In data analysis, the researcher finds that 3 word-verbs can also have an object (transitive) with the pattern: V +Object + Adv + Prep + Object. Besides, in the data source the researcher can find that the object pronoun can also be placed after the particle. So, the object pronoun must not be placed between the verb and the particle.
Based on those findings, the researcher hopes that this research will be
useful for the reader who is eager to understand more about phrasal verb, and the next researchers who want to do a research in the same field. Moreover, phrasal verb is important to understand to be able to comprehend and use it. We need to master the phrasal verb, because it is usually used in daily conversation and writing, literary works, such as song, poem and prose. So, we can get more comprehension about the point of phrasal verb, both theory and application. Besides, we can preciously analyze Crooks’ Christmas drama text. Finally, we can understand the story well. Those are the reason why the researcher chooses this topic, and the researcher expects to the next researcher to develop and make more complete analysis on the same field.
