Abstract

Abstrak: Penelitian ini mengeksplorasi berbagai jenis kalimat yang terdapat dalam buku ilmiah The Theory of Moral Sentiments karya ekonom dan filsuf ternama Adam Smith. Buku yang membahas moralitas manusia, simpati, dan perilaku sosial ini kaya akan bahasa yang kompleks dan bernuansa, menjadikannya sumber yang berharga untuk analisis sintaksis. Tujuan utama penelitian ini adalah untuk mengidentifikasi dan mengkategorikan jenis kalimat yang digunakan di seluruh buku dan menentukan jenis kalimat mana yang paling sering muncul. Jenis kalimat yang dianalisis meliputi kalimat sederhana, kalimat majemuk, kalimat kompleks, dan kalimat majemuk-kompleks. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif kuantitatif. Peneliti memilih 10% dari total 505 halaman buku sebagai sampel representatif, dengan setiap sampel diambil secara proporsional dari berbagai bagian dan bab buku. Setiap kalimat dalam sampel diberi kode dan diklasifikasikan berdasarkan jenis strukturalnya. Analisis berfokus pada komponen sintaksis seperti klausa, konjungsi, dan panjang kalimat, yang membantu menentukan klasifikasi yang tepat. Temuan menunjukkan bahwa kalimat majemuk-kompleks mendominasi teks, diikuti oleh kalimat kompleks, kalimat majemuk, dan kalimat sederhana. Frekuensi struktur kompleks-majemuk dan kompleks yang tinggi mencerminkan kedalaman intelektual pengarang dan sifat filosofis pokok bahasannya, yang sering kali memerlukan elaborasi terperinci, berlapis-lapis makna, dan penalaran logis.

The book, which discusses human morality, sympathy, and social behavior, is rich in complex and nuanced language, making it a valuable source for syntactic analysis. The primary objective of this study is to identify and categorize the types of sentences used throughout the book and to determine which sentence types occur most frequently. The sentence types analyzed include simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex sentences. This research employs a descriptive quantitative method. The researcher selected 10% of the total 505 pages from the book as a representative sample, with each sample drawn proportionally from the different parts and chapters of the book. Each sentence in the sample was coded and classified according to its structural type. The analysis focused on the syntactic components such as clauses, conjunctions, and sentence length, which helped determine the appropriate classification. The findings show that compound-complex sentences dominate the text, followed by complex sentences, compound sentences, and simple sentences. The high frequency of compound-complex and complex structures reflects the author’s intellectual depth and the philosophical nature of the subject matter, which often requires detailed elaboration, multiple layers of meaning, and logical reasoning. Keywords: analysis, sentence types, Adam Smith’s scientific book, The Theory of Moral Sentiments
