 CHAPTER II
Theory and Discussion

2.1 Noun

a. Understanding Noun

Noun noun is everything that we see or can talk about and which shows people, things,
places, plants, animals, months, professions and so on. For example: December, Saturday,
Surabaya, reading, birds, snakes, and others. In a sentence, the noun can be used as the
subject of the sentence, the object of the verb, and also the object of the preposition or
preposition.

b. Common
A common noun is the generic name for a person, place, or thing in a class or group.
Unlike proper nouns, a common noun is not capitalized unless it either begins a sentence or
appears in a title. Common nouns can be concrete (perceptible to the senses), abstract
(involving general ideas or qualities), or collective (referring to a group or collection). All
nouns can be classified as either common or proper. All noun name something, but proper
nouns name them specifically. Common nouns do not.

Example:
They say that diamonds are a girl’s best friend. If you want to be my best friend, the Blue
Moon Diamond would be a great gift idea.
Usually, it will be quite obvious if a specific person, place, or thing is being named.

Example :

 While cats are social animals, some may seem like solitary creatures. A cat may
scratch you if it is teased too much. Seriously, you should watch yourself around
Fluffy.

 Ray likes to hike in the mountains. Ray has climbed Mount Everest twice.
 A girl rang the doorbell this afternoon while you were out. Gigi rang the doorbell this
afternoon while you were out.
Distinguishing between common nouns and proper noun seems easy, so why do we really
need to know the difference between them? The answer to that question is this: to assign
capital letters correctly.
 c. Proper noun

The right noun is the classification of nouns for people, places, and special objects. This
noun is used among other things for the name of the organization, organization, day, month,
nation, religion, and place. The right noun always uses capital letters at the beginning of the
word.

Example:

 Sea World
 Mohammad Hatta
 Bandung
 Gramedia

Use of Definite Article (The) in Proper Noun, which is only used for a number of types of
proper nouns. Here are some rules of use.

Proper Noun Usage Examples of 'the'

before geographical names such as mountains,  the Himalaya
deserts, rivers, etc.  the Gobi
 the Yangtze
before pluralized names in the form of: family,  the Hudsons
group of lakes, mountains, and islands  the Great lakes
 the Alpen Mountains

before the name of important events,  the Round Table Conference

positions, institutions, public facilities, and  the Prime Minister, the Legislative
newspapers Assembly
 the Istiqlal Mosque
before a noun that starts with a preposition that  the City of Alameda
starts with "of"  The State of Massachusetts

d. Singular Nouns
Examples are: book, sister, mango, pencil, knife, fly, family, and others.
e. Plural nouns .
Examples are: books, sisters, pencils, mangoes, knives, and others.
To form plural nouns there are certain ways that must be considered, namely:
a) Nouns in singular form if they become plural by adding s or es to singular nouns.
Example:

Singular Plural

Pena (pena) Pens (pena-pena)

Cat (kucing) Cats (kucing-kucing)

b) If the noun ends with the letters s, sh, x, ch, and o, then the noun is added to the letter es
Example:

Singular Plurar

Tomato (Tomat) Tomatoes (Tomat-tomat)

Box (Kotak) Boxes (Kotak-kotak)

c) If the noun ends with the letter o which is preceded by a death letter, then the plural form is
added to es
Example:

Singular Plurar

Buffalo (kerbau) Buffaloes (kerbau-kerbau)

Negro (orang negro) Negro (orang negro)

d) If the noun ends with the letter y which is preceded by a death letter (consonant), then y is
changed to i, then added to es
Example:

Singular Plurar

City(kota) City(kota)

Cities(kota-kota) Cities(kota-kota)

e) If the noun ends with the letter y which precedes the letter hu, then the plural is only added
to s and y does not change.
 Example:

Singular Plurar

Boy (anak laki-laki) Boy (anak laki-laki)

Boys(anak-anak laki-laki) Boys(anak-anak laki-laki)

f) If the noun ends with the letters f and fe, the plural f and fe are changed to ves.
Example:

Singular Plurar

Thief (pencuri) Thief (pencuri)

Thieves (pencuri-pencuri) Thieves (pencuri-pencuri)

g) Nouns that have the same form between singular and plural.
Example:

Singular Plurar Artinya

Deer Deer Rusa

Sheep Sheep Biri-biri

h) Some nouns that only change the letters in the plural (exceptions).
Example:

Singular Plurar

Child (anak) Child (anak)

Children (anak-anak) Children (anak-anak)

i) Nouns that always exist in the singular.

Example:

Singular Plurar Artinya

News News surat kabar

Politics Politics Ilmu politik

j) Nouns which are always in the plural.
Example:

Singular Plurar Artinya

Clothes Clothes Pakaian

Pincers Pincers Jepitan

2.2 Pronoun
A pronoun is a word that replaces a noun in a sentence. Pronouns are used to avoid repeating
the same nouns over and over again.

Example:

1) My parents are serious about health. They say that beef is not good for me.

"My parents" (antecedent) diganti dengan "they". Tapi tidak semua Pronoun harus
ada antecedent.

Example:

2) Everyone here earns over a thousand dollars a year.

Dalam hal ini, pronoun “everyone” tidak mengunakan antecedent.

Personal Pronouns
Personal pronouns are used as a substitute for a person's name. There are two kinds:
subjective and objective pronouns. That is, they either act as the subject of the sentence
or the object of the sentence.
As the subject of a sentence, they are: I, you, he, she, it, we, they.
For example:
 They went to the store.
 I don't want to leave.
 He runs a great shop in town.
 You can't leave, either.
As the object of the sentence, they are: me, you, her, him, it, us, them.
For example:
 Please don't sit beside me.
 Go talk to her.
 Mary put the gift under it.
 Don't look at them.
Possessive Pronouns
Possessive pronouns show ownership or possession of a noun. They are: my, our, your,
his, her, its, their.
For example:
 Is that my book?
 No, that's his book.
 That's its shelf.
 I'd like to see their bookshelves.
However, there are also independent possessive pronouns. These pronouns refer to a
previously named or understood noun. They stand alone and aren't followed by any
other noun. They are:mine, ours, yours, his, hers, its, theirs.
For example:

Possessive Pronoun Example:

Mine
Yours (singuler) This book is mine.
Hers That car is yours.
His The expensive watch is hers.
Ours The house on Chamber Street is his.
Yours (plurel) The cute dog is ours.
Theirs Those friends are yours.
Its This ball is theirs.
–

B. Reflexive Pronoun
Reflexive pronouns seperti myself, yourself, herself, himself, themselves, ourselves,
dan itself menunjukkan bahwa subject terkena aksi dari verb.
examle:
1) Students who cheat on this quiz are only hurting themselves.
2) You paid yourself a million dollars?

 Fungsi Pronoun
Dalam tata bahasa Bahasa Inggris (Grammar) pronoun mempunyai beberapa fungsi
berikut ini:
a. Noun phrase Head (sebagai Induk prase kata benda/ noun phrase)
b. Subject ( sebagai Subjek dalam kalimat)
c. Subject complement (sebagai pelengkap kalimat)
 d. Direct object (sebagai objek langsung)
e. Object complement (sebagai pelengkap objek dalam kalimat)
f. Indirect object (Sebagai objek tidak langsung)
g. Prepositional complement ( sebagai pelengkap preposisi/kata depan)
h. Appositive (Sebagai noun atau pronoun yang digunakan untuk mendeskripsikan
