 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background
Critical Journal Review is an activity that criticizes journal with the discussion about the
journal, how about the content methodology, systematic writing, EYD writing and also the
strength and the weakness of a journal. In make Critical Journal Review, it is better if we can
choose journal that are worth to criticizing, reading and have to think critically. In this CJR I
will critic compound word.Compound words cause some difficulty in post-coordinate
indexing systems: if too many are fractured, or the wrong categories are selected for
fracturing, noise will be produced at unacceptable levels on retrieval. Various prior
suggestions for handling compound terms are examined which include those for
precoordinated or rotated, indexes.The syntactic origins are also explored and it is found that
many compound words hinge on a prepositional relationship between the components, and
that this relationship can be applied to decision making. Other compound words are in effect
abbreviated statements from longer phrases, while some are influenced by the presence of a
verb-like form. The rules have some bearing on the application of roles especially if these are
employed on a pre-coordinate basis

1.2 The Purpose Of CJR

 To make the readers undestand about the topic that is going to be discussed.
 To improve the ability of reviewing a journal.

knowledge of the readers and the writer is going to be improved.
 To complete the assignment of Compound Word.

1.3 The Benefits Of CJR

We can realize how to learn and understand Compound Words.

SUMMARY OF THE JOURNAL

Keywords : Compound words, Parts of Compound Words in English, Parts of Compound Words
in Indonesian 1.Background of the Study This language is being used as a tool of formal or
business communication from country to country.
The writer will take the data from English and Bahasa Indonesia magazines as her object of
research and then the writer will analyze the language and the pattern of using the word based on
two theory, according to theory of English compound words, Jackson gave a good explanation,
"Compounds may be distinguished from phrase on phonology, syntactic, and semantic grounds"
and theory of Indonesia compound words, Chaer, "Penggabungan kata didalam Bahasa Inggris
dan didalam Bahasa Indonesia tidak jauh berbeda. Hanya saja dibedakan oleh proses
pembentukan kata". To investigate the differences of compound words in English and Bahasa
Indonesia After doing this research, there are some significances found as following: this study is
useful for the writer to improve the quality in learning compound words. Parts of Compound
Words in English According to Jackson,"a compound word consisting of two roots and
compounds in which one of the elements is complex". One word has the diplacement group even
the word used in different distribution.
According to Alieva, "compound words is the way to form words by combining by two
components, meaningfull words or roots morpheme". As the particular of compound words can
be made, for example, two criteria as follows:Idiomatically meaning from compound words: the
meaning that not exist from the sum meaning in each components forming the compound words.
Based on the nature of the relationship of syntactic between coponents, then the compound
words in Bahasa Indonesia devided into types as follows: A compound of equivalent
combination, consist of three parts: Both of components having a noun meaning, for example:
Tanah + air: tanah air
Soal + jawab: soal jawab
Suku + bangsa: suku bangsa
Both of components having a quality meaning, for example: Merah + putih: merah putih
Both of components having a meaning of process, for example: Terbang + layang: terbang
layang

 A compound of subornatif word, consist of four parts.The first component is noun, while the
second is the characterisric of noun, for example: Mata + hari: matahari
Emas + putih: emas putih
The first component is adjective, while the second somponent is noun, for example: Keras +
kepala: keras kepala, Panjang + lidah: panjang lidah. The first component is meaning of process,
while the second component is noun, for example: Naik + darah: naik darah, Jatuh + cinta: jatuh
cinta . The first component is noun, while the second component is process, for example: Pisau +
cukur: pisau cukur .Description of Compound Words in English Based on the general meaning
of linguistics by Falk, "compounding is one of the word formation process in English".
Edward Arnold has the definition about the compound words, that is: "a compound words is a
word which is formed from two other words and there are no clear rules for writing compounds".
Compounds can be form by combining two or more wordsby combining prefixes or suffixeswith
words, or by combining two or more word elements. The way to interpret most long compound
words is to start with the last word and work backwards.
Some compound words are by convention written as one word; typewriter, overtake, newspaper,
etc. Some are writtenas separate words; a brick floor, a student hostel. There are differences in
the way the same compound words are written, such as: textbook maybe written as text book,
textbook and, text-book by different writers. From the above explanation, the writer might
conclude that compound words is used together to form one word and used as a group of
separate words that refer to one thing or idea. Let us think of carefully the words, such as: a heat
of sources, the supply of gas, post offices, my motherin-law's-book, the population of the world
etc. Description Compound Words in Bahasa Indonesia The definition of compounding in
Indonesia according to Chaer is translate as kata majemuk. The notion of compounding in
Bahasa Indonesia is not too different with English compound words.
Reduplication of words form is written completely by using a hypen, such as: Jangan - jangan
tua - muda Mondar - mandir mobil - mobilan kupu - kupu Hormat - menghormati Mata - mata
Word Formation in Engalish By word formation processes we mean the different devices which
are used in English to build new words from existing ones. Each word-formation process will
result in the production of a specific type of word. Word formation uses existing language
material words and morphemes to create new lexical items. Inflection Inflection is a general
grammatical process words and affixes to produce alternative grammatical forms of words.
Compounding is one of the most important word information processes that may create and
enrich the vocabulary of the English words. Conversion Conversion may be defined as a process
by which a word belonging to one word class is transferred to another word class without any
concomitant change or form, either pronounciation or spelling. Word Formation in Bahasa
Indonesia .
A large number of the words used in the Bahasa Indonesia are formed by combining root words
with affixes and other combining forms. Infixes There are 3 types of infix that are inserted after
the first syllable of root words to create new words with varying meanings: el, em and er. The
separate word "di" is not to be attached to other words although some Indonesians do use it that

way incorrectly. Prefix se- Adding the "se-" prefix has several possible results with varying word
types. The aspect of compound words include the function and position. The data were collected
would be analyzed and the result of the study was the description of circumtances of
compounding word in using language and to prove the similarities and differences of word
formation of compound words between English and in Bahasa Indonesia. Then all of them are
investigate to find out the similarities and differnces between compound words in both
languages.
The procedures of analyzing the data Underlining the compound words found in English and
Indonesia's Article, categorizing the word formation of compound words, describing the word
formation of the compound words according to it's word formation, concluding the finding . The
examples of word formation in English above are called derivation, consist of new words of the
same grammatical form, such as noun to noun,or different grammatical forms, such as verb to
noun. The third types is Compound words may be written as one word or as two words joined
with a hyphen called by compounding.
For example: a. Entrepreneurship : consist of two words
b. Groundwork : consist of two words
A word of one grammatical form becomes a word of another grammatical form without any
changes to spelling or pronunciation called conversion. As the first types above called by infixes,
because the words follow by infix-el, -em, and er. The examples of word formation in Bahasa
Indonesia in the second types is prefixes, consist of prefixes -me, -di, -mem, -meng, -ber, -ter.
a. Pendapatan : confix pen-an : dapat
b. Kenaikan : confix ke-an : naik
c. Melanjutkan : confix me-an : lanjut
Based on the analysis above, there is one types by using a hypen in Bahasa Indonesia which is
not used in English, named by reduplication words.The writer suggested to the readers to tryto
find out the similarities and the differences of word formation in another language, such as
regional language, so it can avoid misunderstanding in forming the words.

STRENGTH AND WEAKNESS

3.1 Strength Of The Journal

 This journal explained in detail and briefly so that it is not too tiring to read it and easy to
understand it,
 this journal also makes opinions of some experts to support their research,
 in the abstract they explained all of their journal content with clear and shortly,
 in the arranged of the structure of the journal itself has been very neat and good, f
 or the method has also been explained clearly, they also included the analysis table that
they did to collect data.
 And then they also write their references to avoid some plagiarism action,
 Then the author makes the sign of the important things, for example in the form of
slanted or bold writing.
 The author makes the examples of the material for each sub bab.

3.2 Weakness of The Journal

Because of my lack of knowledge about making a journal, I can only find a shortage of journal
authors who do not include their journal identities on the cover or first page of the journal.

 CHAPTER IV
CLOSING

4.1 Conclusion
In linguistics, a compound is a lexeme (less precisely, a word or sign) that consists of more than
one stem. Compounding, composition or nominal composition is the process of word formation that
creates compound lexemes. That is, in familiar terms, compounding occurs when two or more words or
signs are joined to make a longer word or sign, often however written in separate parts in English but not
most other languages, e.g. press conference. The meaning of the compound may be similar to or different
from the meaning of its components in isolation. The component stems of a compound may be of the
same part of speech—as in the case of the English word footpath, composed of the two
nouns foot and path—or they may belong to different parts of speech, as in the case of the English
word blackbird, composed of the adjective black and the noun bird. With very few exceptions, English
compound words are stressed on their first component stem. And from analyzing the journal that I have
taken, I can concluded that the journal is suitable as reading material for lexicogrammar lesson especially
in compound material, even though the book has the strength and the weakness in the Journal.

4.2 Suggestion

As a reviewer of the journal I hope that the reviewer in the future so could create a journal that
has useful and good content to add knowledge, and for journal makers it is expected to continue
to be able to make good journals for reference and good use as a source of knowledge.
