Jurnal Sastra Indonesia - Grammar Cases in Novels "Kita Pergi Hari Ini" Based on Charles J. Fillmore's Perspective

Sep 2, 2026

The dialogue and narration in the novel Kita Pergi Hari Ini by Ziggy Zezsyazeoviennazabrizkie are examined through case grammar using Charles J. Fillmore’s perspective. The study treats verbs as central sentence elements and analyzes semantic relationships within noun phrases, focusing on modality and prepositions. A descriptive qualitative design is applied, using reading and notetaking for primary novel data and Fillmore’s theory for supporting data. Miles and Huberman’s technique guides reduction, presentation, and conclusion, yielding four modalities (tense, negation, mode, aspect) and eight proposition types.

The dialogue and narration in the novel Kita Pergi Hari Ini by Ziggy Zezsyazeoviennazabrizkie are interesting to study in more depth. The researcher uses case grammar based on the perspective of Charles J. Fillmore, a modified form of generative transformation theory with verbs as the central part ofa sentence and has a semantic relationship in various noun phrases; this relationship is called case. The use of Charles J. Fillmore's perspective case grammar as an analysis tool for the novel Kita Pergi Hari Ini by Ziggy Zezsyazeoviennazabrizkie aims to examine two aspects, namely modality and preposition. Researchers use descriptive qualitative research. The data collection technique for this research is the reading and notetaking technique. The researcher read the Kita Pergi Hari Ini novel as primary data and Charles J. Fillmore's perspective case grammar theory as supporting data. After reading, the researcher noted essential things to display as data. The data collection technique used in this research is the Miles and Huberman Technique, which consists of three stages: data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion. The results of the study show that four modalities were found, namely tense composed of past, present, and future; negation, mode consisting of indicative, imperative, interrogative, conditional, and subjunctive; and aspect consisting of non-progressive, as well as eight propositions which consisting of agentive, goal, experience, time, accompanying, locative, objective, and source. | | | *E-mail:
