ABSTRACT

Syarif, Ahmad. 2011, An Analysis of Student’s Errors in using Adjective

Clauses, Skripsi, English Education Department, The Fakulty of Tarbiya and

Teachers‟ Training, Syarif Hidayatullah State Islamic University Jakarta.

Advisor: Drs. Nasrun Mahmud, M.Pd.

The aim of this study is to know the students‟ errors in using adjective

clauses at the second year students of MAN Cijeruk and to discuss them in this

„skripsi‟. The method of this reseach was Error Analysis. Meanwhile, the sample

were by using random sampling technique. The total sample was 31 students. The

data were collected through test and interview. The data were collected and were

analyzed by using Statistical Analysis and Descriptive Analysis. Statistical Analysis

used to find out the students‟ outcome percentage while the Descriptive Analysis was

to explain and describe the students achievements based on the calculation through

tabulation in the tables. The findings of this research are as follows, the mastery of

second year students (class XI-IPA 2) in grammar especially in using adjective

clauses was low. The average of the form test type is 52.26% and the average of the

function test type is 44.52%. In addition, most of the students made error on „whom‟

with the average of error is 82.80%. On the other hand, the lowest one is on „who‟

with the average of error is 30.11%. Therefore, the average score of students in class

XI-IPA is 50.94. Based on the findings above, it can be concluded that the student

should increase and alter their motivation, learning styles, and interest and the

teacher should pay more attention on teaching adjective clauses.

Analisis statistik digunakan untuk menemukan presentasi siswa sedangkan analisis

deskriptif menjelaskan dan menggambarkan ketercapaian siswa berdasarkan

perhitungan melalui tabel. Hasil penelitian ini sebagai berikut. (1) Kemampuan siswa

kelas kelas XI-IPA di dalam tatabahasa (grammar) terutama dalam menggunakan

klausa adjektiva pada level yang rendah. (2) Hasil dari tiap-tiap jenis tes, berjumlah

52.26% dan yang mencakup tes bentuk mencapai 44.52%. Sementara itu, tingkat

kesalahan yang paling banyak yaitu dalam penggunaan pronomina tidak tentu

“whom” (rata-rata 82.80%). Sedangkan penggunaan pronomina tidak tentu yang

paling sedikit tingkat kesalahannya adalah pronomina tidak tentu “who” (rata-rata

30.11%). Selanjutnya, nilai rata-rata siswa dikelas XI-IPA adalah 50.94. Berdasarkan

temuan tersebut, dapat disimpulkan bahwa siswa sebaiknya mengubah gaya belajar,

meningkatkan motivasi, dan minat belajar dan guru sebaiknya lebih memerhatikan

dalam mengajar klausa adjektiva.

CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

A. Background of the Study

In this modern era, the technology and science make the central of life.

Both can do something easily. How to use and develop the technology and science

definitely needs good human resource quality that is supported by mastering an

international language, namely English.

The role of English gives the ease to understand many information in this

world. Without mastering English, people will get the problems understanding it

both written and spoken. First, by mastering written English, they will be able to

read many information that is in the books, magazines, newspapers, novels, etc.

Second, by having speaking skill, they can express their idea, thought, or feeling.

Therefore, the Indonesian government has decided that English should be taught

at school in order to create the best generations who can develop the science and

technology.

Indonesian government agree with the one of the purposes of Indonesia

law 1945 where it is broken down into the law of Indonesia republic number 20,

2003 about the national education system which stated, “Undang-Undang RI

Nomor 20 tahun 2003 tentang Sistem Pendidikan Nasional, dinyatakan bahwa

Tujuan Pendidikan Nasional berfungsi mengembangkan kemampuan dan

membentuk watak serta peradaban bangsa yang bermartabat dalam rangka

mencerdaskan bangsa dan bertujuan untuk berkembangnya potensi peserta didik

agar menjadi manusia yang beriman dan bertaqwa kepada Tuhan Yang Maha

Esa, berakhlak mulia, sehat berilmu, cakap, kreatif, mandiri, dan menjadi warga

Negara yang demokratis serta bertanggung jawab”1 (The national education aim

http://www.inherent-dikti.net/files/sisdiknas.pdf, 30 Juli 2011.

is increasing the competency and character along with grade nation civilization to

educate the nation and having to develop the students competency in order to be

the faithful and god-fearing human being of God, have noble moral, health,

educated, capable, creative, autonomous, and become the democracy civilization

as well as good responsible).

In addition, the explanation of national education system becomes the aim

of curriculum in Indonesia. Besides, this curriculum contains the competence

standard and based competence that becomes the base when the teachers make a

lesson plan. Based on the curriculum, the teachers know which is the limitation

when they teach in the class.

Learning English in the class includes the language skills which are

divided into two kinds, namely receptive and productive skills. The receptive

skills are listening and reading. Therefore, the productive skills are speaking and

writing. If the language skills are learnt well, the students will have good English.

However, in learning English, the students are taught also the language

competences, one of which is grammar.

Grammar has an essential role in mastering English. It is the study about

how to make words into ideas. As Hans P. Guth said that grammar is the system

by which words combine to convey ideas and information. In addition, the study

of grammar can help a writer make appropriate and mature use of the resources of

the language.2

In learning grammar, a clause is the part that occures frequently in the

English book such textbook. “A clause may be defined in the same way as a

sentence. It is full predication that contains a subject and a predicate with a finite

verb. There are two kinds of clauses; independent and dependent. The

independent clause is a full predication that may stand alone as a sentence; the

dependent clause has a special introductory word that makes the predication

2Hans P. Guth, Concise English Handbook, (USA: Wadsworth Publishing Company, Inc., 1969),

Second Edition, p. 1.

„depend‟ on an independent clause.”3 Therefore, based on functions, it is divided

into three dependent clauses. One of them that should be taught by an English

teacher of senior high school is about adjective clauses. Betty Azar said that “it is

a dependent clause that modifies a noun. Likewise, it has two kinds, namely

restrictive and nonrestrictive clauses.” 4 Nevertheless, when the students learn it,

they face the problems which are caused by the lack of knowledge in grammar

especially in adjective clauses. For mastering it, the students need the

comprehension about the relative pronouns that describe a noun or pronoun.

Commonly, the relative pronouns are who, whom, whose, that, and which.

In order to clear this difficulties in learning an adjective clause, here the writer

would like to show some common mistakes that students often make when they

use relative pronouns. As Michael Swan gives the examples of typical mistakes

in adjective clause as follows:

- There‟s the man who he teaches me the guitar.

- I don‟t like people which lose their temper easily.

- I think you should stay faithful to the person whom you are married to.5

These sentences are definitely wrong. The first sentence is wrong because

the clause is added „he‟ as though it is an adjective clause as object yet its function

as subject that does not use „he‟ after the relative pronoun „who‟. The second

sentence is definitely wrong because the student don‟t know the function of

relative pronoun which when the antecedent of person is used in this sentence.

„Who‟ is used instead „of which‟. And the last it is definitely wrong because the

students use informal language. The function of relative pronoun as object of

preposition does not put the preposition in the end of the sentence but before

relative pronoun.

The correct sentence:

Inc., 1992), p. 222. 4Betty Schrampfer Azar, Understanding and Using English Grammar, (Englewood Cliffs:

Prentice-Hall, Inc., 1992), p. 238. 5Michael Swam, Practical English Usage, (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1982), p. 522.

- There‟s the man who teaches me the guitar.

- I don‟t like people who lose their temper easily.

- I think you should stay faithful to the person to whom you are married.

The students‟ difficulties at school can be various. One of them is the

learning attitude in the class that is different so that there are some students who

can receive the lesson easily and the other can not. Thus, their source difficulties

occur while they are receiving the lesson. As M. Alisuf Sabri said that the

students‟ difficulty here should be defined as an hardship of students in receiving

the lesson at school. Thus these learning difficulties occur while they are

following the lesson.6

Commonly, the factors that cause the difficulty in learning consist of two

kinds. The first is the student internal factor; the conditions that are inside the

students themselves. The second is the student external factor; the conditions that

are outside the student themselves.7

In this case, the writer is interested in analyzing the student‟s errors in

using adjective clauses with the paper entitled “An Analysis of Students‟ Errors

in Using Adjective Clauses” (A Case Study in the Second Year Students of MAN

4 Cijeruk Bogor). The reason why the writer chooses this title because there are

many students who still get difficulty in learning adjective clauses. By knowing

these difficulties that are analyzed by the writer, it can help English teachers

about how to teach an adjective clause.

B. Limitation of the Study

In order to avoid misunderstanding in interpreting the problem. The writer

limits the problem in this “skripsi” only in the student‟s difficulties in learning

adjective clauses especially in relative pronouns as subordinate conjugation.

These relative pronouns are: who, whom, whose, that, and which, that should be

taught in the second grade of senior high school.

C. Formulation of the Study

Based on the statement above the writer would like to formulate the

problems as follows:

1. What are the errors faced by the students in using adjective clauses?

2. Why do the students face such difficulties in using adjective clauses?

D. Use of the Study

This Paper is intended to find out the errors faced by the second year

students of MAN 4 Cijeruk Bogor, to analyze the reason why the students face the

difficulties in using adjective clause, to enlarge the writer‟s knowledge in their

grammar especially in using relative pronoun as subordinate conjugation in

adjective clauses.

The writer expects that this paper will be useful for himself, English

teachers and everybody who pay attention to learn English may take advantages

from this study. In addition, it is also to fulfill one of the requirements of English

Department of Syarif Hidayatullah State Islamic University Jakarta.

E. Method of the Study

The method that is used in this study is analysis descriptive method

carried by data that are found through library research as the base of theoretic and

field research. In field research, the writer collects and researches immediately to

the location of research in order to find the data needed in this research. As well,

they are analyzed by quantitative and presentation. The field research is conducted

at MAN Cijeruk Bogor. The writer observes some difficulties and errors found by

the second year students in using adjective clauses and analyzes them.

F. Organization of the Writing

This paper is systematically divided into five chapters. The following is a

brief description about what each chapter contains.

Chapter I is introduction containing background of the study, limitation of

the study, method of the study and organization of writing.

Chapter II discusses about theoretical framework and consists of three

parts. Part A explains about errors which cover the definition of error, the sources

of error, the types of error and how to improve error. Part B explains about

adjective clauses which cover the definition, the types, the usage, and the

difficulties in learning adjective clauses. Part C explains about the factor of

students‟ difficulties which cover the internal and external factor.

Chapter III presents reseach methodology. It consists of place and time of

the research, population and sample, techniques of data collecting, and techniques

of data analysis.

Chapter IV presents research finding. It consists of findings and

discussion.

Finally, chapter V presents conclusion and suggestion. It is the analysis to

answer the formulation of problem. Moreover, suggestion that writer takes.

CHAPTER II

THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK

A. Errors

1. The Definition of Error

According to Brown errors are part of the student‟s interlingua, that is the

version of the language which a learner has at any one stages of development, and

which is continually reshaped as he or she aims toward full mastery.1

Therefore, Dullay stated that error is the flawed side of learner speech or

writing. Those are part of conversation or composition that deviates from some

selected norm of mature language performance.2

The writer tries to concludes that error is a part of foreign language

learning process that is made by the students caused by their lack of

comprehending in the target language rules.

When the students learn about target language, they make plenty of error.

It is natural part of language acquisition process. How to know the students‟

errors are needed the error analysis.

According to David Crystal, error analysis in language teaching and

learning is the study of the unacceptable forms produced by someone in learning a

language, especially foreign language.3

Moreover, Sharma stated that error analysis is defined as a process based

on analysis of learners‟ error with one clear objective; evolving a suitable and

effective teaching learning strategy and remedial measure necessary in certain

clearly marked out areas of the foreign language.4

Regents). P, 170. 2Heidi Dullay, et/al., Language Two, (New York: Oxford University Press), p. 139.

1992), p. 125. 4S. K. Sharma, Error Analysis: Why and How?, English Teaching Forum, (April, 1982), p. 21.

8

From the explanation above, the writer concludes that the error analysis is

the study of linguistic that gives a way to teachers about how to correct the

students‟ errors in order to improve the effectiveness of their teaching learning.

2. The Sources of Error

Corder identified three sources of errors: Language Transfer,

Overgeneration or analogy, and Methods or Materials used in the Teaching.5

Besides, Richards and Simpson exposed seven sources of errors:

a. Language Transfer, to which one third of the deviant sentences from second

language learners could be attributed

b. Intralingual interference, where Richards exposes four types and causes for

intralingual errors:

1). Overgeneration. It is associated with redundancy reduction. It covers

instances where the learner creates a deviant structure on the basis of his

experience of other structures in the target language. It may be the result

of learner reducing his linguistic burden.

2). Ignorance of rule restrictions: i.e. applying rules to contexts to which they

do not apply.

3). Sociolinguistic situation: motivation (instrumental or integrative) and

settings for language learning (compound or co-ordinate bilingualism)

may affect second language learning.

4). Modality: modality of exposure to the TL an modality of production.

5). Age: learning capacities vary with age.

6). Successions of approximative systems: since the circumstances of

language learning vary form a person to another, so does the acquisition

of new lexical, phonologica, and syntactic items.

7). Universal hierarchy of difficulty: this factor has received little attention

in the literature of second language acquisition. It is concerned with the

inherent difficulty for man of certain phonological, syntactic, or

5S. Pit Corder, Technique in Applied Linguistic, (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1972), p. 139.

9

semantic items or structures. Some forms may be inherently difficult to

learn no matter what the background of the learner.

Therefore, James exposed two main diagnosis-based categories of error:

a. Interlingual

Endorgon stated that Interlingual transfer is a significant source for

languange learners. Besides cased on the dictionary of Languange Teaching and

Applied Linguistic (1992) defines interlingual errors as being the result of

languange transfer, which is caused by the learners first language transfer. Error

analysis does not regard them as the persistence of old habits, but rather as signs

that the learner is internalizing and investigating the system of the new language.

Interlingual errors may occur at different levels such as transfer of phonological,

morphological, grammatical and lexica-semantic elements of the native language

into target language.

b. Intralingual

Intralingual errors result from faulty or partial learning of the target

language rather than language transfer. They may be caused by the influence of

one target language item upon another. For example, learners attempt to use two

tense markers at the same time in one sentence since they have not mastered the

language yet. When they say : “He is comes here”, it is because the singularity of

the third person requires “is” in present continous, and “-s” at the end of a verb in

simple present tense. In short, it occur as a result of learners‟ attempt to build up

concepts and hypotheses about the target language from their limited experience

with it.6

6Endorgan, Contribution of Error Analysis to Foreign Language Teaching, (Mersin University

Journal of the Faculty of Education: Vol.1, Issue 2, 2005). pp, 265 -266.

10

According to James, the area of intralingual as follows:

1). Learning strategy-based errors: false analogy, misanalysis, incomplete rule

application, exploiting redundancy, overlooking cooccurrence restrictions,

hypercorrection (monitor overuse), and overgeneralization or system

simplification

2). Communication strategy-based errors: circumlocution (expressing the concept

indirectly, by allusion rather than by direct reference).

3). Induced errors: they result more than from the classroom situation than from

either the student‟s incomplete competence in English grammar (intralingual

errors) or first language interference (intralingual errors): material induced

errors, teacher-talk induced errors, exercise-based induced errors, errors

induced by pedagogical priorities, and look-up errors.7

3. The Types of Error

Dulay and Burtand Krashen in lengthy consideration of Errors described

three major types of taxonomy, 1. Error Types based on linguistic category, 2.

Surface strategy Taxonomy, 3. Error Types based on comparative Taxonomy.8

In this research, the writer classifies the students‟ error based on the

surface strategy taxonomy. The surface strategy taxonomy highlight the ways

surface structures are altered. Learner may omit necessary items (omission), or

add unnecessary ones (additions), they may deform items (selection) or disorder

them (disordering).

a. Omission

Omission errors are characterized by the absence of an item that must

appear in a well-formed utterance. Although any morpheme or word in a sentence

is a potential candidate for omission, some types of morphemes are omitted more

than others.

For example omission of to be: Mary the president of the new company.

7Carl James, Errors in Language Learning and Use, (New York: Longman, 1998), p. 89.

8Heidi Dullay, Language…, p. 146

11

b. Addition

Addition errors are the opposite of omissions. They are characterized by

the presence of an item which must not appear in a well-formed utterance. It

usually occur in the later stages of L2 acquisition, when the learner has already

acquired some target language rules. In fact, addition errors result from the all-

too-faithful use of certain rules.

For example in Syntax: The London.

in morphology: The books is here.

c. Double Marking

Many addition errors are more accurately described as the failure to delete

certain items which are required in some linguistic constructions, but not in

others.

For example in past tense error: She didn‟t went/goed.

in present tense: He doesn‟t eats.

d. Regularization

A rule typically applies to applies to a class of linguistic items, such as the

class of main verbs or the class of nouns. In most languages, however, some

members of a class are exceptions to the rule. For example, the verb eat does not

become eated, but ate; the noun sheep is also sheep in the plural, not sheeps.

e. Simple Addition

Errors are the “grab bag” subcategory of additions. If an addition error is

not a double marking nor a regularization, it is called a simple addition. Not

particular features characterize simple additions other than those that characterize

all addition errors-the use of an item which should not appear in a well-formed

utterance, Simple addition errors observed in both L1 and L2 child speech.

For example in preposition: in over here.

in 3rd

person singular-s: The fishes doesn‟t live in the water.

12

f. Misformation

Misformation errors are characterized by the use of the wrong form of the

morpheme or structure. While in omission errors the item is not supplied at all, in

misformation errors the learner supplies something, although it is incorrect.

For example: The dog eated the chicken.

In a past tense marker was supplied by the learner; it was just not the right

one. As in the case of additions, misformations are usually not random. Thus far,

three types of misformations have been frequently reported in the literature: 1.

Regularizations, 2. Archi-forms; and 3. Alternating forms.

1. Regularization Errors

Regularization Errors that fall under the misformation category are those

in which a regular marker is used in place of an irregular one, as in runned for ran.

For example in the regulalarization errors in the misformation category observed

in Chilld L2 production:

Linguistic Item Misformed Example

Reflexive Pronoun Hisself (himself)

Regular Past Gooses (geese)

2. Archi-form

The selection of one member of a class of forms to represent others in the

class is a common characteristic of all stages of second language acquisition. We

have called the form selected by the learner an archid-form. For example, a

learner may temporary select just one of the English demonstratives this, that,

these, and those, to do the work for several of them:

That dog

That dogs

For this learner, that is the archi-demonstrative adjective representing the

entire class of demonstrative adjective.

13

3. Alternating Forms.

As the learner‟s vocabulary and grammar grow, the use of archi-forms

often gives way to the apparently fairly free alternation of various members of a

class with each other. Thus, we see for demonstratives:

Those dog

This cats

g. Misordering

Misordering are characterized by the incorrect placement of a morpheme

or group of morphemes in an utterance. For example, in the utterance:

He is all the time late. (all the time is misordered)

4. How to Correct Errors

Ellis and Hubbard et al., gave practical advice and provided clear

examples of how to identify and analyze learners‟ errors. The initial step requires

the selection of a corpus of languange followed by the identification of errors. The

errors are then classified. The next step, after giving a grammatical analysis of

each error, demands an explanation of different types of errors.

Moreover, Gass and Selinker identified 6 steps followed in conducting an

error analysis: Collecting data, identifying errors, Classifying errors, Quantifying

errors, Analyzing source of error, and Remediating for errors.9

B. Adjective Clauses

1. The Definition Of Adjective Clauses

To know adjective clause is essential because in the English text book,

magazines, newspaper, and the other frequently use the adjective clauses. There

are many experts who state the definition of adjective clause. As Wren and Martin

said that adjective clause is a group of words which contains a subject and a

predicate of its own, and does the work of an adjective.10

On the other words, it is

9Heidi Dullay, Language…, pp. 150 -163.

10Wren and Martin, High school…, p. 264.

14

also called relative clause. As Evelyn P. Altenberg and Robert M. Vago said that

a relative clause (adjective clause) is a kind of dependent clause; it provides

additional information about a noun phrase in the main clause.11

In addition,

Rodney Huddleston and Geoffrey K. Pullum said that a relative clause is a special

kind of subordinate clause whose primary function is as modifier to a noun or

nominal.12

Adjective clauses, like adjectives, are used to describe a noun. As George

E Wishon stated that an adjective clause is a dependent clause used as an

adjective; it modifies a noun or a pronoun. These clauses are introduced by two

different kinds of words which always occur just after the noun that the clause

modifies.13

From the definitions explained by the expert above, the writer can take

summary that adjective clauses are a group of words that function for explaining a

noun or pronoun preceded either describing or giving information whose position

is as a subject, object and possessive.

According to S.H Burton, adjective clauses have their own subject and

predicate, but their function is to qualify a noun, pronoun or noun equivalent in

another clause.14

Similarly, the adjective clause is also called relative clause used

to form one sentence from two separate sentences. The relative pronoun replaces

one of two identical noun phrases and relates the clauses to each other.15

We use

relative pronouns to join two statements that refer to the person or thing.

Commonly, the relative pronouns that refer to person or thing are who, whom,

which, that, and whose.

For examples:

- I don‟t like people who lose their tempers easily.

- Mexico City, which has a population of over 10 million, is probably the fastest

growing city in the world.16

From definitions above, the writer concludes that adjective clause is a

clause which modifies or describes noun or pronoun as antecedent that uses

relative pronouns or relative adverbs as subordinator conjugation describing

people and thing whose position as subject, object, and possessive.

2. The Types of Adjective Clauses

There are two types of adjective clauses; They are restrictive and non

restrictive clauses. As Homer C. House and Susan Emolyn Harman said that

adjective clauses, when analyzed as to the particular way in which they modify

nouns and pronouns, may be classed as restrictive and nonrestrictive. Thus there

are the distinguish between them as follows:

a. Restrictive Clauses

They have the function to limit or identify. As Robert M. Gorrell and

Chalton Laird said that when modifiers limit closely, especially when they supply

the information that identifies or distinguishes subject or complement, they are

called restrictive.17

Restrictive clauses help identify or define the noun phrases which they

modify.18

For instance, ―the Professor who teaches Chemistry 101 is an excellent

lecturer.” (No commas are used. The adjective clause is necessary to identify

which professor is meant).

Therefore, when the antecedent is limited by the adjective clause to some

of class, the restrictive clauses do not use commas. For example, the children who

wanted to play soccer ran to an open field as soon as we arrived at the park. The

others played a different game. (The lack of commas means that only some of the

The University of Michigan Press, 1992), p. 185.

16

children wanted to play soccer. The adjective clause is used to identify which

children ran to the open field).19

b. Nonrestrictive Clauses

Nonrestrictive clauses, on the other hand, called additive or appositive

relative clauses. It set off by commas in writing and by pauses in speaking.20

It

also called Non-defining relative clauses functioning like noun. As Thomson and

Martinet said that non-defining relative clauses are placed after nouns which are

definite already. They do not therefore define the noun, but merely add something

to it by giving some more information about it. Unlike defining relative clauses,

they are not essential in the sentence and can be omitted without causing

confusion. Also unlike defining relatives, they are separated from their noun by

commas. The pronoun can never be omitted in a non-defining relative clause. The

construction is fairly formal and more common in written than in spoken

English.21

The function of nonrestrictive clauses does not limit or identify. they do

not affect the intention, nor restrict the number of the nouns or pronouns they

modify.22

A nonrestrictive clause contains additional information which is not

required to give the meaning of the sentence. A nonrestrictive clause is set off

from the other clause by commas and a restrictive clause is not. Who, whom, and

which can be used in restrictive or nonrestrictive clauses. That can be used only in

restrictive clauses. Normally, that is the preferred word to use in a restrictive

clause, although which is acceptable.23

According to Michael Swam, non-

identifying expressions are often separated from the rest of the sentence by pauses

(or intonation-changes) in speech, and by commas in writing (as in the last two

examples above). In writing, non-identifying relative clauses are always separated

17

by commas in this way. Then, one of the way how to determine the different

between restrictive and non-restrictive in writing is by seeing the comma . In

addition, the other ways taken from the explanation that was stated by Marcella

Frank that the non restrictive clauses use of commas when the antecedent is

restricted in itself . The antecedents which are used commas as nonrestrictive

clauses are a proper noun, one of a kind, and the antecedent identified by the

preceding context. Not only three of antecedents that are used commas as non

restrictive but also commas used when the antecedent refers to all of a class. for

more clear, the writer gives the examples as follows:

1) Antecedent as a proper noun, for example:

Professor Wilson, who teaches Chemistry 101, is an excellent lecturer.

(Commas are used. The adjective clause is not necessary to identify who

professor Wilson is. We already know who he is: he has a name. The

adjective clause simply gives additional information.)

2) Antecedent is one of a kind, for example:

His aunt, who lives in California, came to visit him recently. (The adjective

clause does not single out one aunt from others. He may have only one aunt.)

3) Antecedent identified by the preceding context, for example:

4) Late in the evening they sent out for some coffee. The coffee, which had been

boiling for along time, tasted rancid

5) Antecedent refers to all of a class, for example:

The chair, which were in bad condition, were sent out to be repaired and

refinished. (All the chairs were in bad condition).24

Based on the explanation above, the writer take summary by using table in

order to be clear where the different between restrictive and non restrictive

clauses.

Summary of differences between restrictive and nonrestrictive clause

Restrictive

Non Restrictive

Provides information necessary for

identifying a noun in the main clause

Provides additional information but

information is unnecessary to

determining the identity of a noun

in the main clause

No pauses (no comma) or special

intonation to set off the relative clause

from the main clause.

Commas in writing and special

pauses and intonation in speech set

the relative clauses off from the

main clause.

That is freely used as relative pronoun

instead of who (m) and which e.g.: The

teacher who/that uses a good shoes is my

friend.

That cannot be used as a relative

pronoun instead of who (m) and

which, e.g: Ahmad Syarif, that uses

good islamic dress, is my teacher.

The correct answer: Ahmad Syarif,

who uses a good islamic dress, is

my teacher.

Does not usually modify proper noun,

one of a kind, antecedent identified by

the preceding context, antecedent refers

to all of a class except it modifies some

of a class e.g:

- The chairs which were in bad

condition were sent out to be repaired

and refinished. (Some chairs were in

bad condition; the others were not)

It may modify proper noun, one of

a kind, antecedent identified by the

preceding context, antecedent refers

to all of a class as well as common

nouns, e.g: Husnul, who wears a

fez, is the teacher.

His aunt, who lives in

California, came to visit him

recently.

Late in the evening they sent out

for some coffee. The coffee,

19

which had been boiling for

along time, tasted rancid

The chairs, which were in bad

condition were sent out to be

repaired and refinished. (All the

chairs were in bad condition).

3. The Difficulties in Learning Adjective Clauses

It is not easy to understand and use clauses especially in adjective clauses

until someone faces the probem in learning it. Stanley J. Cook and Richard W.

Suter gives two kinds of clauses problems. The first is the lack of knowledge

about clauses until students write a fragment. As They said that when a person

does not fully understand the essential facts about clauses, he or she can easily fall

into the habit of writing sentence fragment. Sentence fragments occur whenever

someone uses a dependent clause or part of an independent clause as if it were a

complete sentence. For example, “Because I needed more money.” Here the

writer has used a single adverbial clause as if it constituted a complete sentence.

Fragment like this can be remedied by attacking the dependent clause to an

independent clause, so that a truly complete sentence results, such as “Because I

needed more money, I took a second job.” A second problem involving clauses

concerns the matter of choosing between the relative pronouns who and whom.

The distinction between them can be explained in several ways, but since most

people are looking only for a simple test that will provide the correct pronoun

each time, we suggest that you give them just that-a simple test-and try to avoid

reference to “direct object functioned” and other more theoretical approaches, at

least initially. The simplest test we know of is to determine whether a subject

noun (or subject pronoun) follows the relative pronoun. If it does, then whom

should be used; if not, the correct pronoun is who. For example as follows:

- The attorney whom I (subject pronoun) contracted refused my case.

- The secretary whom Mrs.Tucker (subject noun) hired a superb typist.

- The doctor who treated me is from India.

20

- The person who tutored me charges very little.

In practice, many people find it sufficient just to see what kind of word

follows the relative pronoun. If a noun or pronoun immediately follows the

relative pronoun, they use whom, if a verb follows the relative pronoun, they use

who. This version of the test is extremely simple and will almost provide the

correct answer.25

In addition, Michael Swan gives the examples of typical mistakes in

adjective clause as follows:

- There‟s the man who he teaches me the guitar.

- I don‟t like people which lose their temper easily.

- I think you should stay faithful to the person whom you are married to.

These sentences are definitely wrong. The first sentence is clearly wrong

because the clause is added he as though it is adjective clause as object yet it‟s

function as subject that does not use he after the relative pronoun who. The

second sentence is definitely wrong because the student don‟t know the function

of relative pronoun which when the antecedent of person is used in this sentence.

Who is used instead of which. And the last it is definitely wrong because the

students use informal language. The function of relative pronoun as object of

preposition does not put the preposition in the end of the sentence but before

relative pronoun.

The correct sentences:

- There‟s the man who teaches me the guitar.

- I don‟t like people who lose their temper easily.

- I think you should stay faithful to the person to whom you are married.26

Based on the explanation above, there are some difficulties in learning

clauses especially about adjective clauses. The first is the meaning and the usage

of relative pronoun in formal language when it refers to antecedent. The second is

the form of adjective clause correctly when its function as subject, object, or

25

Stanley J. Cook and Richard W. Suter, A Study of…, pp. 234 –235. 26

Michael Swam, Practical English…, p. 525.

21

object of preposition. The last is the lack of knowledge in clauses until someone

makes fragment.

In addition, to avoid the mistakes, it is needed the comprehension about

the usage of adjective clauses clearly. The next point of this paper is the usages of

adjective clauses especially in using relative pronoun which are broken down into

two parts, namely restrictive/defining and nonrestrictive/non-defining clauses.

4. The Usage of Adjective Clauses

In this point, the writer gives the usage of adjective clauses that is based

on the kind of its own. In order to more understand, each of relative pronouns are

explained below based on the points.

a. Relative Pronouns used in defining relative clauses

The forms are as follows:

Antecedent subject Object of verb/prep. possessive

For person who Whom/who whose

that that

For things which which Whose/of

which

that that

1) Defining relative clauses: persons

a) Subject: „who‟ or „that‟

When „who‟ and „that‟ are used as subject and refer to person, they are

always followed a verb.27

For examples:

- The man who robbed you has been arrested.

- The girl that serves in the shop is my friend.

But „that‟ is a possible alternative after all, everyone, everybody, no one,

nobody and those: For example:

Everyone who/that knew him liked him.

27

J. B. Alter, Essential English Usage and Grammar, (Hong Kong: Times Educational,1980), (4th

Ed.), p. 76.

22

Therefore, when the antecedent is preceded by any or all such as any man,

anyone, all people, all those, the following clause is always a defining clause. For

example: The boy who broke the window is called Tom.28

b) Object of a verb „whom‟ or „who‟ or „that‟

When whom and that are used as object of a verb and refer to person,

they are always followed a noun or pronoun.29

The object form is whom , but this

is considered very formal. In spoken English, we normally use who or that ( that

being more usual than who), and it is still more common to omit the object

pronoun altogether:

- The man whom I saw told me to come back today or

- The man who I saw…..or The man that I saw …….or

- The man I saw…..(relative pronoun omitted)

c) With a preposition: „whom‟ or „that‟

When „whom‟ or „that‟ is used as object of preposition and refer to

person, it is always followed a noun or pronoun. In formal English the preposition

is placed before the relative pronoun, which must then be put into the form

„whom‟: The man to whom I spoke

In informal speech, however, it is more usual to move the preposition to

the end of the clause. „Whom‟ then is often replaced by „that‟, but it is still more

common to omit the relative altogether

- The man who/whom I spoke to or

- The man that I spoke to or the man I spoke to.

d) Possesive

‘Whose’ and „of which’ have similar functions. We use ‘whose’ to refer to

persons and ‘of which’ to animals and inanimate objects. ‘whose’ and ‘of which’

are used to show possession.30

28

A. S. Hornby, Guide to Patterns and Usage in English, (Oxford: Oxford University Press,1975),

(2nd

Ed.), p. 156. 29

J. B. Alter, Essential English.., p. 76. 30

J. B. Alter, Essential English.., p. 77.

23

„Whose‟ is used to show possession and it is always followed by a noun.

For example: People whose rents have been raised can appeal.

2) Defining relative clauses: things

a) Subject

„Which‟ and „that‟ are used for subject. When „which‟ and „that‟ are used

as subject and refer to things, they are always followed by a verb. Either „which‟

or „that‟. „Which‟ is the more formal. For examples: This is the picture which/that

caused such a sensation, The stairs which/that lead to the cellar are rather slippery.

b). Object of a verb

„Which‟ or „that‟ are used for object of a verb. When „which‟ or „that‟

are used as object of a verb and refer to things, they are always followed a noun

or pronoun. For example: The car which/that I hired broke down.

„Which‟ is hardly ever used after all, everything, little, much, none, no

and compounds of no, or after superlatives. Instead we use „that‟, or omit the

relative altogether, if it is the object of a verb: All the apples that fall are eaten by

the pigs. This is the best hotel (that) I know.

c). Object of a preposition

The formal construction is preposition + „which‟, but it is more usual to

move the preposition to the end of the clause, using „which‟ or „that‟ or omitting

the relative altogether. In addition, after relative pronoun is always followed by a

noun or pronoun. For examples:

- The ladder on which I was standing began to slip or

- The ladder which/that I was standing on began to slip or

- The ladder I was standing on began to slip.

d). Possessive

„Whose‟ is used to show possession and it is always followed by a noun.

It can refer to person or things. Instead of „whose, of which‟ can be used to refer

24

to things, and it is sometimes preferred. The word-order is normally „noun + of

which‟. For examples:

- We had a meeting the purpose of which was completely unclear or

- We had a meeting whose purpose was completely unclear.

b. Non-defining relative clauses

Actually, comma is used in non-defining relative clauses. It is the key

word when we want to determine whether the sentence is defining or non-defining

relative clauses. If the sentence uses it, automatically, the sentence is non-

restrictive. However, to give the reason why it is used comma in the sentence is

the crucial question because this make different between them when it is used in

sentence. The usage of comma based on the antecedent. There are four

characteristics of non-restrictive when it uses comma based on the antecedent.

The first, If the antecedent is a proper noun. The second, if the antecedent is one

of a kind. The third, if the antecedent identified by the preceding context.

Finally, if the antecedent refers to all of a class. Moreover, the non-defining

clauses refers to person and things which function as subject, object of a verb,

object of preposition, and possessive. In order to be more clearly, the usage of

non-defining clauses explained by expert as follows:

The forms are as follows:

Antecedent subject Object of verb/prep. possessive

For person who Whom/who whose

For things which which Whose/of

which

that that

1) Non-defining relative clauses: persons

a) Subject: „who‟

When „who‟ is used as subject and refer to person, it is always followed by

a verb. Therefore, the usage of relative pronoun „that‟ is not used when it refers to

person. In non defining clause, commas set the relative clauses off from the main

clause based on the antecedent. For examples:

- My neighbor, who is very pessimistic, says there will be no apples this year.

25

- Peter, who had been driving all day, suggested stopping at the next town.

Clauses such as these, which come immediately after the subject of the

main verb, are found mainly in written English. In spoken English, we would be

more likely to say: My neighbor is very pessimistic and says there will be no

apples this year.

But clauses placed later in the sentence, clauses coming after the object of

the main verb, are quite common in conversation: I‟ve invited Ann, who lives in

the next flat. Clauses following a preposition + noun are also common: I passed

the letter to Peter, who was sitting beside me.

b) Object: „whom‟, „who‟

When „whom‟ or „who‟ are used as object and refer to person, it is always

followed by a noun or pronoun. Therefore, In non defining clause, commas set the

relative clauses off from the main clause based on the antecedent. The pronoun

cannot be omitted. „Whom‟ is the correct form, though who is sometimes used in

conversation. For example: Peter, whom everyone suspected, turned out to be

innocent.

As noted above, a non-defining clause in this position is unusual in spoken

English. We would be more likely to say: Everyone suspected Peter, but he turned

out to be innocent.

But non-defining clauses coming later in the sentence, i.e. after the object

of the main verb or after a preposition + noun, are common in conversation:

- She wanted Tom, whom she liked, as a partner; but she got Jack, whom she

didn‟t like.

- She introduced me to her husband, whom I hadn‟t met before.

c) Object of a preposition: „whom‟

When „whom‟ is used as subject and refer to person, it is always followed

by a noun or pronoun. Therefore, In non defining clause, commas set the relative

clauses off from the main clause based on the antecedent. The pronoun cannot be

26

omitted. The preposition is normally placed before „whom‟. For example: Mr

Jones, for whom I was working, was very generous about overtime payments.

It is however possible to move the preposition to the end of the clause.

This is commonly done in conversation, and „who‟ then usually takes the place of

„whom‟:

- Mr Jones, who I was working for, was very generous about overtime

payments.

If the clause contains an expression of time or place, this will remain at

the end:

- Peter, with whom I played tennis on Sundays, was fitter than me

Could become

- Peter, who/whom I played tennis with on Sundays, was fitter than me.

d) Possessive: „whose‟

„Whose‟ is used to show possession and it is always followed by a noun.

Therefore, In non defining clause, commas set the relative clauses off from the

main clause based on the antecedent. For example: Ann, whose children are at

school all day, is trying to get job. In conversation we would probably say: Ann‟s

children are at school all day , so she is trying to get job.

1) Non- defining relative clauses: things

a). Subject: „which‟

When „which‟ is used as subject and refer to things, it is always followed

by a verb. Therefore, the usage of relative pronoun „that‟ is not used when it

refers to person. In non defining clause, commas set the relative clauses off from

the main clause based on the antecedent. For example:

- The 8.15 train, which is usually very punctual, was late today.

- In speech we would be more likely to say:

- The 8.15 train is usually punctual; but it was late today.

27

b). Object: „which‟

When „which‟ is used as object and refer to person, it is always followed

by a noun or pronoun. Therefore, In non defining clause, commas set the relative

clauses off from the main clause based on the antecedent. „That‟ is not used here,

and „the which‟ can never be omitted. For examples: She gave me this jumper ,

which she had knitted herself or She gave me this jumper; she had knitted it

herself.

c). Object of a preposition

When „which‟ is used as object and refer to things, it is always followed

by a noun or pronoun. Therefore, In non defining clause, commas set the relative

clauses off from the main clause based on the antecedent. The preposition comes

before „which‟, or (more informally) at the end of the clause. For example:

Ashdown forest, through which we‟ll be driving, isn‟t a forest any longer or

d). ‘which‟ with phrasal verbs

When „which‟ with phrasal verbs used as object and refer to things, it is

always followed by a noun or pronoun. Therefore, In non defining clause,

commas set the relative clauses off from the main clause based on the antecedent.

Combinations such as look after, look forward to, put up with should be treated as

a unit, i.e. the preposition/adverb should not be separated from the verb:

- This machine, which I have looked after for twenty years, is still working

perfectly.

- Your inefficiency, which we have put up with far too long, is beginning to

annoy our customers.

e). Possessive: „whose‟ or „of which‟

„Whose‟ and „of whose‟ is used to show possession and it is always

followed by a noun. Therefore, In non defining clause, commas set the relative

clauses off from the main clause based on the antecedent. „Whose‟ is generally

28

used both for animals and things. „Of which‟ is possible for things, but is unusual

except in very formal English.

- His house, whose windows were all broken, was a depressing sight.

- The car, whose handbrake wasn‟t very reliable, began to slide backwards.31

Besides the relative pronoun, adjective clauses also have relative adverbs.

The relative adverbs when, where, and why are used like relative pronoun. They

also modify the antecedent that refers both person or things. The relative adverbs

where, when, why, and whereby may introduce either restrictive or non-restrictive

clauses, the meaning which is to be conveyed being test. Often if the definite

article or some other similar modifier precedes the noun-antecedent, the clause

which follows will be restrictive. For example, The place where I lived, the time

when, the means whereby, the reason why. If the antecedent is a proper noun, the

clause which follows is likely to be nonrestrictive. For example, Berlin, where we

once lived, was almost destroyed.32

o Why is used to refers a reason and it can replace for which. For example:

Give me one good reason why you did that. „why’ is used with the noun

reason. It may replace for which. For example: The reason why/for which he

comes here is....33

o when is used to refers time and it can replace in/on which. For example:

The day when (on which) they arrived.

o Where is used to refers a place and it can replace in/at which. For example:

The hotel where (in/at which) they were staying.

From explanation above, we know the usage of kind adjective clauses

both restrictive and non-restrictive adjective clauses have some differences each

other. As Robert J. Dixon, has given the explanation about relative pronouns

briefly as follows:

The relative pronouns in English are who, whose, which, whom and that.

1. Who is used to refer to persons.

31

A. J. Thomson and A.V. Martinet, A Practical…, (4th

Ed.), pp. 81 -88. 32

Homer C. House and Susan Emolyn Harman, Descriptive English…, (2nd

Ed. ), p. 365.

33 A. S. Hornby, Guide to Patterns..., p. 163.

29

2. Whose is the possessive form of who. It may, however, also refer to animals or

things.

3. Which is used to refer to animals or things. It has the same for when used as

subject or object of the verb.

4. That may refer to persons, animals, or things. That may also serve without any

change of form as both subject or object of the verb (that may not be used as a

relative pronoun in so-called non-restrictive clauses. that is, when the person or

thing which is referred to is clearly indicated or defined).34

5. Whom is refers to person or persons. The function of whom as object either

object of preposition or object of verb. As Marcella Frank writes summary of

classification of adjective clauses according to the antecedent that the

introductory word refers to.35

(2) Relative adverb:

Moreover, when the usage of relative pronouns can be used as alternatives

and can be omitted, we can see the table below. The forms in square brackets []

are acceptable alternatives, but are not recommended for active teaching; teach

contact clauses by omitting that whenever possible. A that in round brackets ()

can be omitted; in spoken English is usually.

C. The Factor of Difficulties

Muhibin Syah said that the internal factors are divided into two aspects;

physiological aspect and psychological aspect.37

The factors of student‟s difficulties were divided into two factors. The

first is internal factor and the second is external factor. According to Abu Ahmadi

36

W. Stannard Allen, Living English Structure, (London: Longman, 1974), (5th

Ed.), P. 211. 37

Abu Ahmadi dan Widodo Supriyono,…p, 75. (translated by the writer)

31

and Widodo Supriyono, the intern factor is divided into two kinds, namely

physichological and phhysiological factor. However, the extern factor includes

social and nonsocial factor.

1. Internal Factor

a. Physiological

This factor is most influental for students‟ success while they are studying.

There are the factors which cause physically, namely sick, less healthy, and

physical defect. They will be tired easily and difficult to concentrate while

learning. Finally, the physical defect also can be a problem in learning proccess

because their senses such as auditory does not work well.

b. Physichological

When studying, the students need to prepare spiritual in order to receive the

lesson well. If the students do not have it, they will get the problem because they

are not calm while they are following the learning process. These case is caused

by any factors, namely:

1) Intelligence

There are classification or grade IQ of students. Firstly, IQ of students who

are genius, are about up to 140. Secondly, IQ of students who are intelligent, are

about 110-140. Thirdly, IQ of students who are normal, are about 90-110.

Therefore, IQ of students who are mental weak , are about low 90. These students

who often get the problem in learning.

2) Talent

Talent is the basic potential or basic competence which is gotten from

born. Everyone has different talent. For example, someone whose talent in music

or dance will develop the talent easily. However, when students are taught

something that is not their talent, they will get problem and give up easily, bored,

along with unhappy until they get a bad score.

32

3) Interest

Interest is very important in learning. In case students do not have it, they

will get difficult in learning. The indicator of students who have not interest can

be shown from their ways to follow learning, whether complete or incomplete

their notes, and take attention or not while they are following the lesson.

4) Motivation

Motivation functions to encourage someone in order to study. This can be

successful factor in learning. The higher motivation, the higher success which

they get. On the other hand, the students who do not have it will get the problem

and easily despondent, no attention to learn, and like annoying in their class. The

characteristics of students whose motivation are they always reads books and

never give up.

5) Mental Health

In learning, the students not only need intelligence, but they are also need

good mental until they can easily receive the lesson in learning process. Mental

and learning has effectual composure emotion until it gives good concentration in

receiving the stimulus while they are studying.

6) Special Types of learner

There are three special types of learner, namely visual, motoric, and

auditory. Someone whose is visual type will be easy to learn something if it is

supplied by written text, pictures, graphics, and drafts. Therefore, the auditory

students will be easy to learn something in sound. Finally, the student motoric

type, will be easy to learn something in moval and written.38

a. Social Environment

The social environment includes family, student‟s school environment,

society and neighbors. The definition of social environment is the environment

outside that has contact directly with students. Family should give attention to

their children so that they don‟t get problem in learning. Therefore, student‟s

school environment such as their teacher, classmate, and staff administration can

influence the students‟ difficulties. Then, the teacher has to has qualified, good

relationship with the students, good diagnosing skill, and suitable method in

teaching learning process. Finally, the neighbour and society inside us can

influence the students. If these social environments do not support them, they will

get difficulties in learning.

b. Nonsocial Environment

There are the factors which include the non-social environment. They

are school building and location, learning instruments, home and the location,

weather, and learning time. These factors above can influence students

difficulties.39

Madrasah Aliyah Negeri (MAN) Cijeruk was founded in 1996, based on

the minister of religion certificate RI, number 515 A. In 1996, located at Ciburuy

village where it rented in MI Pondok Gede. Therefore, in 1999, the location of

MAN Cijeruk moved to SDN Pangarakan 1 at Cibandawa village.

In 1998 to 2000, the head master with council of MAN submitted the

application for the region goverment to get the area that could be made the

building of MAN. Alhamdulillah in 2000-2001 MAN Cijeruk got the project from

the region goverment to make a building located from the province office of West

Java, ADB loan fund 1519 (SK pimpro No.042/DMAP/V/2000 on April, 02,

2001). Besides, the region goverment succeded on helping the area about 1.500

M2 in Cijambu village, Bogor region. At that time, it could be built eight class

with all students are 300.

The condition of MAN as the part of national education system becomes

increasing and it needs the attention from all parties, especially the department of

religion.

B. Population and Sample

Population is the whole subject of the research. The writer took all the

students of class XI with 200 students as the population.

Sample is any population of the research. The writer used clustering

random sampling technique because the objects of data are homogenous. He took

32 students of class XI-IPA 2 with 31 students as sample because one student of

class XI-IPA 2 was sick.

C. Techniques of Data collecting

In data collecting that will be conducted by the writer, there are two

methods used as follows:

1. Written Test

In doing written test, the writer visited the school to do research. Then,

the English teacher of the school explained adjective clauses. Next, the writer

36

gave the written test to the students which consists of 30 items to the students, 15

items are about the meaning and functions of adjective clauses and 15 items are

about the forms in adjective clauses. Both of them need the comprehension of

relative pronouns clearly. The relative pronouns are who, whom, whose, that and

which. The items of the right answer were based on formal language. The

distribution of test and number of each items can be seen in the table below.

2. Interview

Interview is a dialog done by interviewer to get some information from

interviewee. It is used by interviewer to value the condition of someone. In order

37

to know some difficulties faced by students in learning adjective clauses, In this

step, the writer interviewed 50% of the class and he took some students who got

bad and good scores. Besides, the writer also interviewed the English teacher in

order to reinforce the data.

A. Techniques of data Analysis

The writer uses descriptive analysis technique (percentage) carried by data

that are found through library research as the base of theoretic and field research.

In field research, the writer collects and researches immediately to the location of

research in order to find the data needed in this research. Therefore, they are

analyzed and described by quantitative and the percentage by using a table of

percentage. The table of percentage the writer used this formula:

P= F x 100%

N

P = Percentage

F = Frequency of wrong answer

N = Number of Sample

Having done the calculation of the errors, he calculates the average mark

by using this formula:

P = F x 100 %

Nxn

P = Percentage

F = Frequency of wrong answer

N = Number of Sample

n = number of item test

Besides the percentage, he also uses the result of interview for analyzing

the students’ difficulties.

B. Discussions

The aim of this study is to know the students’ errors in using Adjective

clauses at the second year students of MAN Cijeruk and to discuss them in this

‘skripsi’ and to know why they face such difficulties until they make errors.

43

What are the errors faced by the students in using adjective clauses?

Based on the analysis above, the students got the error in using adjective clauses

form with 52.26% it mean that they have to know the usage of adjective clauses

form. From the specific calculation mentioned above, the highest frequency was

on number 19 with 100%. There were two items which had the same frequencies.

Those were on number 30 and 14 with 83.87%. The frequency of number 6 with

80.65%. The frequency of number 23 with 58.06%. As well, they got the

difficulties in using adjective clause function with 44.52% it mean that the

students’ mastery in using adjective clauses was more lower than their ability in

using the form of adjective clauses. Based on the calculation above, the highest

frequency was on number 9 with 87.87%. The frequency of number 26 with

80.65%. The frequency of number 11 with 77.42%. The frequency of number 18

with 67.74%. The frequency of number 20 with 64.52%. From two kinds of

adjective clauses type test, the frequency of adjective clause form was more

difficult than the adjective clause function.

From the table above, most of the students made error on whom with the

average of error is 82.80%. This frequency was as the highest frequencies of all.

On the other hand, the lowest one was on who with the average of error was

30.11%. Therefore, based on the table above the result of students score. The

average of students’ score was 50.94 where the average of wrong answer 4.87 and

the average of correct answer 5.13 it mean that their learning in using adjective

clauses was low.

The second question is about why do the students face such difficulties in

using adjective clauses until they make errors. From the interview result based on

the theory explained above, the writer got the answer that the cause of students’

errors in using them was from internal factor with 8 of the interviewee facing the

the difficulties caused by their interest, they do not pay attention to the

explanation given, the difficulties caused by their motivation with 6 students and

their special types of learner with 7 students. The second was from external factor

that is divided into two kinds, namely social and non-social environment. The

result of interview that was conducted in nonsocial environment with 6 students

44

where they got the problems in learning because the facilities of school are not

support them and the social factor with 7 students where their parents did not take

attention and gave contribution while they are learning.

Based on the findings above, the writer take a conclusion that the second

year students of MAN Cijeruk made the error in using learning adjective clauses

caused by the external and internal factor.

44

CHAPTER V

CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTION

A. Conclusion

The writer would like to conclude based on the result of the study as

follows:

1. The mastery of second year students (class XI-IPA 2) in grammar especially in

using adjective clauses was low. The average of the form test type is 52.26%

and the average of the function test type is 44.52%. In addition, most of the

students made error on ‘whom’ with the average of error is 82.80%. On the

other hand, the lowest one is on ‘who’ with the average of error is 30.11%.

Too, the average score of students in class XI-IPA is 50.94.

2. The causes of students’ difficulties in using adjective clauses came from

internal and external factor.

a. They could not study well because some of them are not supported by the other

english books.

b. They can not understand the difference between native language (L1) with

target language (L2).

c. They do an overgeneralization to the English Grammar rule such as, In English

the relative pronouns are various (who, whom, which, that, whose). For the

students who are unaware to this rule, they will equalize the rule.

d. They did not pay more attention to the explanation given.

e. The facilities of school are not well supported.

f. They could not study well because some of them are not supported by their

family while they are learning.

g. They could not get good score because their interest and motivation are low

along with their types of learning is not supported.

44

45

B. Suggestion

The writer would like to present some suggestions to the English teachers

and the students themselves in order to reduce the errors in learning adjective

clauses as follows:

a. The students should pay more attention to study grammar while the teacher is

explaining.

b. The students have to practice especially in learning grammar books when they

have leisure time.

c. The students have to pay more attention to study grammar.

d. The students have to study the material in their house before it will be

explained by the teacher in the class.

e. The teacher is better for using the media in teaching learning process in order

get the students’ interest, motivation, and special types of learner.

f. The facility of school that can improve the students’ mastery in learning

especially in English should be increased.
