SYNTACTIC MISTAKES FOCUSED ON SUBJECT POSITION IN WRITING A SENTENCE ON NEWS AT WEBSITE RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT CENTRE FOR MINERAL AND COAL TECHNOLOGY

Abstract

In writing news on a website, we often make a mistake in writing a sentence or few sentences. The authors are usually not aware to that mistakes made would be fatal; due to its writing will cause a double meaning or ambiguityity. Actually, the authors fully understand what are sentence structures must be, for example, Subject-Predicate/ Subject-Predicate- (Object)/ Subject-Predicate- (Object) - (Adverb). However, they often make mistakes in terms of the syntactic grammar and the like. Syntaxx refers to the ways in which we order specific words to create logical, meaningful sentences. While the parts of speech are all the different types of words that we can use, syntax is the set of rules, patterns, or processes by which we can put them together. From this simple explanation, common mistakes made are the relationship between words to words or words to other larger units, sentence structure and its parts, ambiguity, pleonasm, as well as grammatical errors that used. After analysing and researching those mistakes based on the theory of linguistics (syntax and morphology) by using a qualitative approach, it will be obtained an error rate that most often made, the solution to fix the error by using the syntactic approach, and the role of editor in correcting these mistakes for displayed news on the website, so it will be more organized in terms of sentence structure and grammar in the future. The goal is, it can be easily understood by readers without causing doubts and ambiguous.
