Abstract

This paper discusses the grammatical markers of the transitive verb of Enggano language based on both perfective and imperfective aspects, as well as the morphophonemic processes that occur in the grammaticalization process of verbs. Enggano language is a language with aspect but the markers of aspects in Enggano are not clearly stated. In fact, the Enggano language is stated to have an imperfective aspect marker which is characterized by lexical markers ‘sedang’. This kind of obscurity makes research on aspects in the Enggano language is needed. This research was conducted in three villages, namely Malakoni, Apoho, and Meok. The method used is a qualitative method with inductive data analysis techniques. The data source of this research is the speech of the Enggano community which is further reduced based on the needs of the researcher. The results of this study indicate that Enggano is a language with aspects. Aspects in Enggano language consist of perfective and imperfective aspects. The imperfective aspect in the Enggano language is characterized by the appearance of prefixes such as kah-, k-, and ki- while the perfective aspects are marked with ho- and hodɤhɤr markers. In the grammaticalization process of verbs, several morphophonemic processes were found, among others. First, changing phonemes /k/ into phonemes /r/, phonemes /k/ into phonemes /n/, phonemes /k/ to /b/, and phoneme /k/ phoneme changes be /j/. Second, phonemeal collapse that occurs because of the meeting of two same vowels and the meeting of vowel phonemes and consonant phonemes. Third, the morphophonemic process by adding phonemes.
