Abstract

This study aims to investigate bound morphemes in the three Blackpink song lyrics. The main theory used in this research was from Yule (2010) discussing morphology. This research used a descriptive qualitative method to analyze word formations in bound morphemes. The data collection was taken from the three Blackpink English songs, Bet You Wanna (BYW), Crazy Over You (COY), and Love To Hate Me (LHM). The data were identified and analyzed into derivational and inflectional morphemes. The results of this research show there are 6 data items containing derivational morphemes and thirty-nine data items containing inflectional morphemes. The 6 data derivational morphemes consist of 2 data indicating a change in parts of speech from adjective to adverb, 1 data showing a change in parts of speech from verb to adjective, 2 data indicating a change in parts of speech from verb to verb, and 1 data showing a change in parts of speech from adjective to adjective. Meanwhile, 39 data inflectional morphemes consist of 1 data indicating into past tense, 16 data showing into progressive, 1 data indicating into gerund, 5 data showing into past participle, 11 data indicating into plural, and 5 data showing into comparative.
