KALIMAT EFEKTIF: kata yang perlu dihilangkan dan kaidah penulisan di- SNBT 2024 #pbm

Summary

This video script discusses key principles of effective sentence structure in Indonesian language, focusing on the removal of unnecessary words that hinder clarity. It covers topics such as prepositions, conjunctions, redundancy, and the differentiation between verbal affixes and prepositions. The script emphasizes the importance of maintaining a proper subject-predicate relationship for sentence effectiveness and explains common errors in academic and formal writing. It also includes practical exercises and examples to help viewers improve their writing skills, particularly in language exams like SNBT.

Takeaways

• 😀 Redundant words should be eliminated to enhance sentence clarity, such as removing 'agar supaya' or 'sangat sangat baik'.
• 😀 Prepositions at the beginning of a sentence can eliminate the subject (S) and make the sentence ineffective. For example, 'Dalam acara tersebut' should remove 'Dalam'.
• 😀 The presence of the word 'yang' before a predicate often turns it into an extension of the subject, disrupting sentence structure and making it less effective.
• 😀 Words with identical meanings in a sentence, like 'para siswa' and 'siswa-siswa', should have one removed to avoid redundancy.
• 😀 After a copula (like 'adalah'), prepositions or conjunctions should not appear. This can disrupt sentence flow and make it incorrect.
• 😀 Prepositions (like 'di', 'ke', 'dari') are followed by a space and are used to indicate location or direction, while verbs with 'di-' are passive and should not have a space.
• 😀 The distinction between prepositions and verbs can be made by transforming 'di-' into 'me-' to check if the word forms a verb. If it does, it's a verb; if not, it's a preposition.
• 😀 A sentence's effectiveness can be analyzed by identifying whether unnecessary words like conjunctions or prepositions can be removed to simplify and clarify the meaning.
• 😀 The use of the conjunction 'bahwa' is necessary when connecting clauses. Removing it can create errors, such as doubling the subject and predicate.
• 😀 To improve sentence effectiveness in language exams, practicing sentence analysis for eliminating unnecessary elements like prepositions and conjunctions is key.

Q & A

What is the main purpose of eliminating certain words in a sentence?

The main purpose of eliminating certain words is to make a sentence more effective by ensuring it is clear and concise, with the necessary components like the subject (S) and predicate (P).

What causes a sentence to lose its subject (S)?

A sentence loses its subject when it begins with a preposition, such as 'dalam' (in) or 'untuk' (for), which causes the sentence to become ineffective.

How can redundancy in a sentence be corrected?

Redundancy can be corrected by eliminating one of the repeated words or phrases. For example, 'agar supaya' should be shortened to either 'agar' or 'supaya,' as both convey the same meaning.

Why should words like 'yang' be removed from a sentence?

The word 'yang' should be removed when it disrupts the subject-predicate structure, as it can expand the subject unnecessarily, causing the sentence to become ineffective.

What is the correct way to handle 'adalah' in a sentence?

'Adalah' should be followed by a subject and predicate without any punctuation marks or prepositions after it. If there are prepositions or conjunctions following 'adalah,' they need to be removed for the sentence to be effective.

What should be done when encountering a sentence with 'dalam' at the beginning?

If a sentence starts with 'dalam' (meaning 'in'), the word should be removed to restore the subject-predicate structure and make the sentence more effective.

How can you distinguish between prepositions and affixes (imbuhan) in Indonesian?

To distinguish between prepositions and affixes, change 'di' to 'me.' If the word still makes sense (e.g., 'mendalam' for a verb), it is an affix, and no space is used. If it doesn't make sense (e.g., 'dalam' remains unchanged), it's a preposition, and a space is used.

Why should prepositions and affixes be treated differently in terms of spacing?

Prepositions are written with a space (e.g., 'di dalam') because they function as separate words indicating location or direction, while affixes form part of a verb (e.g., 'diambil') and are written without a space.

What mistake is common when using 'untuk' after 'adalah'?

It is incorrect to use 'untuk' (for) directly after 'adalah' (is/are) because 'untuk' is a preposition, and sentences after 'adalah' should not include prepositions or conjunctions. The preposition 'untuk' should be removed to maintain sentence clarity.

How should the conjunction 'bahwa' be treated in a sentence?

The conjunction 'bahwa' should not be removed, as it is essential to maintain the logical structure of the sentence. Removing 'bahwa' could lead to a sentence with two clauses that are improperly joined, resulting in an illogical or incomplete sentence.
