    Language Deviation in Poetry: A Case of English Textbooks Grade Nine and Ten
    (Faculty of English Education, 2021) Shrestha, Bhim Bahadur
    The present study entitled "Language deviation in poetry: A case of English book of Grade Nine and Ten" aimed at exploring the language deviation of English text books grade nine and ten. The study had two objectives. First objective was to describe the language deviation in poem with reference to the phonological deviation (aphesis, apocope, syncope, prosthesis, epenthesis, paragoge and antisthecon) and lexical deviation (coinage, eccentrically affixed words, eccentrically compound words, functional conversion, archaisms and letter deleted words). Second objective was to suggest the pedagogical implication of this research. To achieve these two objectives, I followed the textual analysis of the six poems of secondary level grade nine and ten English poems. Six poems of grade nine and ten English text books were the primary sources of data and some literary books were the secondary sources of data. The secondary sources books were Widdowson (1983), Bose & Sterling (1997), Cuddon (1998), Abrams (2000), Wales (2001), Byrene (2004) , Lazar (2004), Cohen Manion and Morrison (2010). Eight poems were the population and six poems of grade nine and ten of English books were the sample population of this research. I used Leech's check list as a research tool to find out phonological and lexical deviations. During this study the collected data coded, analyzed, tabulated, interpreted from quantitatively (observation) by using devices of phonological and lexical deviation. Poetry is found to have different types of language deviations. Some of the deviations found in the study are prothesis, paragoge, epenthesis, apocope, antisthecon, eccentrically affixed words, eccentrically compound words, letter deleted words, archaisms. The comparies five chapters along with references and appendices in the end.
