Yusvitasari, Pipit. 2013. An Analysis of Nominal Group Structure Found in the Commencement Speech of Steve Jobs at Stanford University. English Education Department, Teacher Training and Education Faculty, Muria Kudus University. Advisor: (1) Atik Rokhayani, S.Pd., M.Pd., (2) Dr. Slamet Utomo, M.Pd. Key Words : Nominal Group Structure, Commencement Speech, Stanford University Nominal group is a group of words which has a noun (a word which names a person, place or thing) as its Head word and includes all additional information related to that noun. It can be analyzed under two function structures: which are experiential structure and logical structure. The writer chooses to analyze the commencement speech of Steve Jobs at Stanford University since Steve Jobs is one of the most notable figures in this century whose speech is so pure and honest that the students can get a motivation from his wisdom within the speech. Moreover, since his death, Jobs’ life story has been inspiring many people in the world. Next, it is because nominal groups are seen clearly in the written language especially which have complex clauses belonging to Steve Jobs’ Stanford commencement speech. Based on these reasons, the writer is interested and motivated to analyze nominal group structure in the commencement speech of Steve Jobs at Stanford University. The objective of the research is to find out the function structure of nominal group found in the commencement speech of Steve Jobs at Stanford Univerity. The design of this research is descriptive qualitative. Whereas, the data of this research is nominal group structure and the data source of this research is commencement speech of Steve Jobs at Stanford University which delivered on June, 12 2005 and posted on June, 14 2005 through stanford.edu. The structures are gotten and concluded by analyzing the two function structures of nominal group which are experiential and logical in the data source. Based on the analyzing of the data, the writer found that there are 236 nominal groups in the data source. In analyzing the experiential structure of nominal group which contains of 7 elements; Deictic, Post-Deictic, Numerative, Epithet, Classifier, Thing and Qualifier, the writer found that there are 25 structures which construct the nominal groups in the commencement speech of Steve Jobs at Stanford University. Those structures are 73 D+T, 7 N+T, 5 E+T, 9 C+T, 6 T+Q, 1 D+PD+T, 12 D+N+T, 14 D+E+T, 13 D+C+T, 47 D+T+Q, 1 PD+C+T, 1 PD+T+Q, 9 N+T+Q, 2 E+C+T, 2 D+PD+C+T, 6 D+PD+T+Q, 2 D+N+C+T, 5 D+N+T+Q, 2 D+E+C+T, 12 D+E+T+Q, 1 N+E+T, 1 D+PD+C+T+Q, 2 D+E+C+T+Q, 3 Pre-N+D+E+T+Q. The most dominant elements is Deictic and Thing since it is proved by total of 73 structures. While, in analyzing the logical structure of nominal group which contains of 3 elements; Pre-Modifier, Head, Post-Modifier, the writer found that there are 3 structures which construct the nominal groups in the commencement speech of Steve Jobs at Stanford University. Those structures are; 148 PR+H, 6 H+PS and 82 PR+H+PS. The most dominant elements is Pre-Modifier and Head since it is proved by total of 148 structures. Therefore, the writer suggests that the reader can add their knowledge about nominal group by concerning the two function structures of nominal group at the same time in order to achieve the comprehensive understanding about nominal group. Moreover, for the English Education Department Students of Muria Kudus University can be motivated to enrich their knowledge about the nominal group structures in order to create good sentences. In addition, the Lecturers can also motivate their students to create good text by enriching their knowledge about the nominal group.
