KOMPONEN KALIMAT

By Kang Sholeh


Dalam bacaan bahasa Inggris kita tidak hanya menemui kalimat-kalimat pendek yang mudah dimengerti, tapi terkadang juga kalimat yang panjangnya sampai beberapa baris. Meski begitu, pada dasarnya semua kalimat dalam bahasa Inggris terdiri dari dua komponen dasar, yaitu subjek dan predikat.

Dalam bahasa Inggris setidaknya ada tiga penanda yang bisa dipakai sebagai pedoman dalam menentukan kalimat. Tiga penanda tersebut adalah:

1. To be bentuk I dan II
2. Verb bentuk I dan II
3. Modal Auxiliary

1. To be bentuk I dan II (is, am, are, & was, were)

Aturan: Dalam semua kalimat bahasa Inggris, kata atau rangkaian kata yang terletak di depan to be bentuk I dan II (present & past) adalah subjek dari kalimat tersebut. Pada contoh di bawah ini kata atau rangkaian kata sebelum to be adalah subjek, sedangkan to be dan setelahnya adalah predikat.

Contoh: to be

a. It is useful
b. The book is useful
c. The cook book is useful
d. The cook book I bought yesterday is useful
e. The book I bought in Gramedia yesterday is useful

2. Verb bentuk I dan II (go-went, write-wrote, etc).

Aturan: Dalam semua kalimat bahasa Inggris, kata atau rangkaian kata yang terletak di depan verb bentuk I dan II (present & past) adalah subjek dari kalimat tersebut. Pada contoh di bawah ini kata atau rangkaian kata sebelum verb adalah subjek, sedangkan verb dan setelahnya adalah predikat.

Contoh: verb

a. he comes from Jakarta
b. The man comes from Jakarta
c. The man in a blue shirt comes from Jakarta
d. The man in a blue shirt who is talking with your father comes from Jakarta
e. The man in a blue shirt who is talking with your father in the garden comes from Jakarta

3. Modal Auxiliary (will, would, can, could, etc).

Aturan: Dalam semua kalimat bahasa Inggris, kata atau rangkaian kata yang terletak di depan modal auxiliary adalah subjek dari kalimat tersebut. Pada contoh di bawah ini kata atau rangkaian kata sebelum verb adalah subjek, sedangkan verb dan setelahnya adalah predikat.

Contoh: modal

a. She might come tomorrow
b. The girl might come tomorrow
c. The girl from Jakarta might come tomorrow
d. The girl from Jakarta that you have been waiting for might come tomorrow
