Abstrak

Errors in foreign language teaching especially in English are the cases which are difficult enough to avoid. Based on the explanation above, the writer is interested in analyzing students’ writing especially in their grammatical errors. The writer would like to carry out a research under the title “An Error Analysis of Using Simple Present Tense in Descriptive Text of The Tenth Grade Students of SMA 1 Gebog Kudus in academic year 2013/2014” The objectives of this research are: (1) To describe the errors types of using simple present tense in writing descriptive text by the tenth grade students of SMA 1 Gebog Kudus in academic year 2013/2014. (2) To find out the percentage of error types using simple present tense in writing descriptive text by the tenth grade students of SMA 1 Gebog Kudus in academic year 2013/2014. This research is a descriptive research. The Population is all tenth grade students of SMA 1 Gebog Kudus in the academic year 2013/2014, and the sample is one class from nine classes, that is X5 consist of 34 students. The instrument of this research the writer uses test which given by the teacher to the students to make a descriptive text. The writer use some techniques of analyzing the data, as follows: Identification of error, Classification, Description, Correction, and then Calculation the percentage of error. After the writer did the research in SMA 1 Gebog Kudus, she got the result of the percentage of error types of using simple present tense in writing descriptive text by the tenth grade students of SMA 1 Gebog Kudus in the academic year 2013/2014 is 84 or 29, 17%. It includes the Omission frequency is 19 sentences or 22, 62%, the Addition frequency is 7 sentences or 8, 33%, the Misformation frequency is 48 sentences or 57,14%, the Misordering frequency is 10 sentences or 11,91%. The writer concludes that the highest error the percentage is Misformation that is 57, 14%. Those errors are made because they perhaps do not know the English pattern of simple present tense. And the lowest in Addition that is 8, 33%. Those sentences are erroneous because they are grammatically incorrect. The Misformation is the most dominate type of errors of using simple present tense in writing descriptive text. Meanwhile, the percentage of all the correct sentences made by the students is 70, 83%. It means that the tenth grade students’ ability of using simple present tense in writing descriptive text is good. All the errors above are generally caused by the lack of students’ ability of using the right English sentence patterns. The students can make the sentences but they do not know the correct patterns. From the result above, the writer give some suggestion: (1) For the teacher, they can use drilling technique to reduce the grammatical error especially errors in misformation. (2) For the students, they must pay more attention in grammatical when composing the descriptive text especially in tenses (simple present tense) to make their text easy to understand and well organized.(3) For future researcher, the writer hopes that this researcher can be used as reference in analyzing grammatical error especially in writing descriptive text.
