 CHAPTER II
UNDERLYING THEORY

2.1. Theories
People like to communicate do their work using computer some words or
terms in computer have different meaning with words in biology. They think the
words have same meaning. Consequently they will get trouble in using computer.
“Meaning is the link between the elements of language it self” Djaja Sudarma
(1993:5).
So the meaning of the words depend on the link between the element of language and
ofcourse the field it self.

2.2. Previous Study

According to (Ruslan, 2008 : 9-10) there are four problems in communication.
One of them is semantic problem. In ths case there is different meaning of the words
in computer than biology, transportation. As the result the users of computer will have
difficultly if they understand the word in term of computer.

way to design research is by collecting data.

3.2 Data and Source of Data

No. Computer Meaning Other Field
1. Mouse A small hand held input device A kind of animal (biology)
