Potential and actual expression in blocking system (morphology studies)

This research was intended to explore the productivity morphologically. In term of forming of word, it was produced two expressive included actual and potential. The technique of collecting data was descriptively and it was analyzed by blocking theory. The theories were stated by Aronoff (2011) and Bauer (2004). The result of this study was to show that blocking occurred whereby the productivity of word forming itself not acceptable or unused by English native speaker, therefore, there was being a previous form that more simply to express their form, function, and meaning. It means that blocking was occurred due to productivity of morphology. The word forming itself produced two expression in use, whether it was acceptable or not acceptable. The two characteristics as well occurred in lexicon or phrase of sentence level. The lexicon undergoes blocking wherein morphology processing result has potential which was blocked by other actual lexicons. The actual lexicon was to represent its form, function, and meaning so that it was more simply. The word forming phenomenon was occurred by some factors, there were phonology lexicalization, morphology lexicalization, semantic morphologically, and syntactic productivity.
