paradigm of research to satisfy the objectives (Davies &

data is through administration of online surveys in order to
know which distinct Filipino slang word a gamer typically

• Online Gamers
RESEARCH
INSTRUMENT
The research instruments used in this study are mobile devices and computer devices. The
researchers will use a modified questionnaire to gather the needed data for the study. The
researchers will make use of a researcher made questionnaire for the identification of the
demographic data of the participants. The set of questions made by the researchers were formulated
to cater the following:
•To analyse how Filipino slang words are formed
•To examine how Filipino morphemes affect or change the meaning of the word.
• To know what morphological process is used and how the word changes or develops its
meaning
•To determine the different morphological process to form new lexical item
DATA GATHERING
PROCEDURE
The researchers will invite 20 online stream gamers to
respond in the researcher-made questionnaire through Google
Form. Each word listed will be analyzed following the
research paradigm presented in Chapter 1.
DATA ANALYSIS
The steps in the structural analysis are: First, identifying all morphemes
from the data that had been collected. Second component is word
formation, which explains how morphemes of language are arranged in a
group to form a word in language. The third is morphophonology
processes, a mechanism of morphophonology process which shows the
changes that occur in the merger of morphemes, such as assimilation,
release, addition, replacement and permutation. The last component to be
conducted by the researcher is to verify each slang word's existence in the
dictionary.
