- Javanese Affixes

According to Sudaryanto in "Tata Bahasa Baku Bahasa Jawa", the types of Javanese Affixes are prefixes, suffixes, infixes, and circumfixes. The prefix N- added to the word pangan ('food'), for example will, change the word pangan ('food') which is noun to mangan ('eat') which is verb. The example of the Javanese suffix is the suffix -en . The word
bleduk (dust) + -en becomes bleduken ('dusty'). The example of Javanese infix is the infix -em-. The Javanese word semega ('the condition of someone who likes to eat much; this condition usuallyrefers to the teenagers') is derived from the word sega
('rice') added ti the infix -em- . The example of Javanese circumfix is the circumfix N- .... -I. The word mbanyoni ('to irrigate'), for example is derived from the word banyu ('water') added to the circumfix N- .... -I.

- Morphophonemic process

Related to the affixation processes, there is a term called morphophonemic processes (Fromkin, 1990: 141). The term morphophonemic processes is derived from two words, they are “morpheme” and “phoneme”. The word Morphophonemic refers variation in the form of morphemes because of the influence phonetic factor or the study of this variation (Longman). According to Parera, the form change of morpheme is based on the sounds surround it which relates to the correlation between morphemes and phonemes (1982:42). It is also called morphophonemic changes.

According to Ramlan, morphophonemic refers the changes of phoneme as a result from the merging of one morpheme and another (2001:83). He also states that morphophonemic process is a process of form changes in which phoneme and morpheme are involved.
