摘要：AbstractThis study aims to describe the grammatical aspects associated with the meaning of the prefixmeN- when joined with color adjectives. Data for this study were obtained from the UKM-DBP corpus which amounted to five million words. This study applied the Relevance theory (TR), bridging cross reference concept (RRS), and ad hoc. The meaning ofmenjadi(become) with the formula ‘XmenjadiY’ was found in lexical with prefixmeN-when merged with color adjectives. However, utterancescloudsmenjadiwhite (tompok awanmemutih) and plants meN-green (tumbuhanmenghijau)did not show the meaning ofmeN- in the context. This study led to the reclassification of the meaning of prefixmeN- with color adjectives which is considered more sensitive to context.
