An Analysis of grammatical Errors in Using Adjective Clauses
CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
A. Background of the Study
English, as an international language, is very important for Indonesian people.
It is the reason that English is the first foreign language
which is taught as a compulsory subject in both junior high school and senior high
school. But mastering English as
foreign language is not an easy job. When people learn a foreign language, they often face interferences, where they apply their mother
tongue or first structure to the foreign
language structure which is different
from their native language. Indonesian students learn English as the first foreign language. Because English is a new language, thus, they get some difficulties and also need much time
to learn.
The
objective of teaching
and learning English is
to develop four
language skills: listening, speaking, reading
and writing. One of the elements that are
taught to support
the four language skills is grammar. In understanding
grammar, teachers recently do not teach grammar specifically and separately.
They combine it with different
language skills communicatively. This makes the
students often confuse in understanding
grammatical rules.
An adjective clause as
part of a complex sentence is one of topics which are
taught in Senior High School.
According to Betty Scrhampfer Azar, “an
adjective clause is a dependent
clause
that
modifies a noun. It describes,
identifies,
or gives further information about a
noun. An adjective clause is also
called a relative clause.”1 Raymond Murphy says that a relative clause tells the readers what the speaker means about person
or thing (or what kind of person or
thing).2
The difficulties of the students
in learning adjective clause sometimes bring
errors. Errors indicate
that the learners construct their own rules on the
basis of input data which is different
from the target language.
As Julian Edge states in Jeremy Harmer’s book, errors cannot correct themselves, so they need explanation about the
reasons they happen.3
In language learning,
the study of learner’s errors is needed because
the
result of the study gives some contributions on attempts to deal with the students’
difficulties. The teacher can infer the nature of the students’ knowledge and find what they still have to learn by analyzing the students’ errors. Moreover, the result of the study focusing on
students’ errors can be used as a means
to measure whether the students
have mastered the language taught by the teacher or not. It is also as a means to measure the teacher’s success in teaching a language.
Based on the explanation above, the writer is interested
in conducting a research about an analysis
of grammatical errors in adjective
clauses.
