The analysis of word formation using the word-formation classification proposed by Bauer (1983). This study uses a descriptive qualitative method. The data are collected from the Internet Movie Database (IMDb) and FilmIndonesia.or.id. The researcher selects film titles that contain English elements and analyzes how the words are formed. The findings show several types of word-formation processes, including inflection, derivation, compounding, blending, acronym, and coinage.
