ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
First of all, I would like to express my gratitude to Allah SWT for giving
me the strength and guidance during my study and thesis completion. Without the
mercy of Allah, this would not be possible.
I would also like to thank Dr. B.B. Dwijatmoko, MA, my thesis sponsor,
for his full guidance and patience during the thesis completion. His endless
supports never failed to light up my spirit again every time I felt like giving up. I
also thank him for giving me the chance to do research in his vocabulary class. I
do really appreciate this chance. Without his help and supports, I would not be
able to finish this thesis.
My sincere appreciation also goes to the lecturers in KBI, Dr. J. Bismoko,
FX. Mukarto, Ph. D, Dr. Fr.B. Alip, Paulus Sarwoto, Ph. D, F. Widya Kiswara,
M. Hum. And Josephine Puji Lestari, M. Hum. for all knowledge shared during
my study in English Language Studies.
My deepest gratitude goes to my father, Agus Rachmadi, who always
believes that his little girl will not give up to any battles; my late mother, Sri
Handayani, whom I believe that she keeps watching over me from heaven – I
finally finished it and I dedicate this to you, Mom. I love you! To my brothers and
sister, thank you for the supports and prayers. To my most favorite men, Nico Arif
Murdika Wibawa and Rajendra Kenzie Wibawa, thank you for the amazing love
and life lessons – we’ve been such a great team, aren’t we?

mas Bayu, Aik and miss Yunita – thank you for all the help and supports. To
