Abstract :
This journal this paper shows how to use material process in English clause. The title of this research is Material Process in Transitivity of the English Clauses: A Functional Grammar Approach. Functional linguistics appeared as a reaction to formal approaches to grammar, especially generative and transformational approaches. One of its basic assumptions is that language is a symbolic system with a certain purpose or purposes, mainly communication, although there are other possibilities too, such as the use of language as an instrument of thought. This attempt is a step towards helping us to understand how to use the material process in English clauses and what verbs in transitivity that consist of material process. The purposes of this study are it describes what verbs in transitivity that consists of material process and it probes how the material process in English Clauses is used. The method which is used is descriptive comparative. The discussions show that verbs in transitivity can contain the material process.
