Abstract

This study presents the development of a structured linguistic procedure known as the Common Name Modifier Arrangement Template Extraction Procedure. The objective is to provide a systematic method for identifying and extracting modifier arrangement templates in common names, particularly those rich in cultural and ecological knowledge. The procedure was developed using the ADDIE model, which consists of five sequential phases: Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. In the Analysis phase, the research team examined the necessity and focus areas for the procedure's development through an extensive literature review using databases such as ScienceDirect, JSTOR, Semantic Scholar, and Google Scholar. In the Design phase, the procedure was designed based on the adapted Structured Design principles of Yourdon and Constantine. The Development phase involved constructing the full procedure, integrating insights and design structures formulated in the previous stages. During the Implementation phase, the developed procedure was applied to actual linguistic data comprising Malay bird common names from the MyBIS 2024 database. In the Evaluation phase, the procedure's usability and effectiveness were assessed by six subject-matter experts. Each expert was provided with a structured open-ended questionnaire guided by Nielsen’s 10 Usability Heuristics. Findings suggest that the procedure is practical, usable, and adaptable for linguistic, educational, and documentation purposes.
