languages in the world are made by the time. The written form, at least, help to develop
the language and also to keep the language exist if it comes to extinct. For example,
the age of English language, there are least three ages, Old English, Middle English,
and Modern English. They were spoken at that time but in historical study of language,
it is documented into books and journals about these ages based on the documents or it
In these recently days, human lives in many activities which become into an
occupation. There are lots of occupations in the world which make their own context
in each of it. For example, the object that researcher study, Aviation context. It has its
own context of using language in its communication among human in it. Another
It is understood by a particular language but the meaning of the words are usually
different due to the context. By those contexts, it can come up as a language based on
Based on the term of register in sociolinguistics study, the researcher dig the
language used into the used of words among the human in a particular social setting.
In fact, Oxford released the book for this environment. It is English for Aviation. The
book will be the source of data since it is for Pilots and Air Traffic Controllers (ATC).
The book will be examine the use of English words for its purpose and its words
The aviation term inspire the researcher to study because it is one of the

There are two reasons why the researcher want to study about word formation
in aviation terms. Firstly, based on the English for Aviation book, it is said in the about
the book’s section, International Civil Aviation Organization requires the people be
able to improve their plain English into specified skill area; pronunciation, structure,
predicts that word formation process exists in this occupation. Secondly, the study
about word formation in this skill area is not yet exist. The previous studies tend to
analyze novels, movie scripts, short stories, and another written form in a language.

library research. To analyze the types of word formation processes, the writer used
theory from O’Grady (1997). Based on O’Grady (1997) theory, there are 11 types of
word formation processes, they are affixation, cliticization, internal change, suppletion,
or word manufacture. This paper attempts to find out 10 types of word formation
process proposed by this theory, they are affixation, cliticization, internal change,
Based on the limitation of the problem above, the research will be formulated
1. What are the types of word formation processes found in Aviation terms?
2. What are the types of word formation processes which frequently appear in
Aviation terms?
This study has two points to signify, theoretical and practical. Theoretically,
this study contributes to linguistics, especially word formation study. The contribution
of this paper is to provide a deeper understanding of word formation process and the
differences among the types of word formation process which is used in different skill
area, aviation.
Practically, this study might be useful for the readers, especially for those who
will study in the same matter. It can help the reader to enrich their references about
word formation in this skill area and. Furthermore, it can be the great source for those
F. Research Instrument
There are four instruments are needed in this paper. The first one is internet
access to get the book from the internet then download it (through Google.com). The
second is the printer to print the book. The third is English dictionary. The fourth
instrument is the writing equipment such as pencil or pen, notebook, and others in order
3. The researcher read the book and highlighting the words that assumed
4. The researcher takes note the words based on the highlighted words
found.
5. Finally, researcher type all the sentences from the cut-scene and then
looking for words that have word formation process based on O’Grady
(1997) theory.
