method. The data are obtained through observation, content analysis, and students‟ interview.

Meanwhile, the data sources are students, students‟ wrting and classes. This research involves

what the errors of social function, generic structure and language features found in the students‟

writing of analytical exposition are and the problems faced by the students in writing analytical

exposition. The result of research shows that there are 224 errors in students‟ writing of

Analytical Expositions which appear in social function, generic structure and language features.

These errors can be seen from the utterances which the students create in detail. These errors

errors. It can be proved by the data analysis and the results of interview from the students. Then,

the problems faced by the students when they are writing such as the low of vocabularies, the

complexity of grammar, the dislike learning analytical exposition, and also the dislike of writing.

It‟s obvious that writing is very complicated for the students in grammar or getting the idea. It‟s

so hard to arrange the words or sentences into a good paragraph. Furthermore, the errors are

ungrammatical and unacceptable.

ABSTRAK

TITLE: ERROR ANALYSIS OF WRITING ANALYTICAL EXPOSITION TEXT



Thesis ini bertujuan mengidentifikasi kesalahan-kesalahan pada teks eksposisi analitis siswa

kelas XI SMA N 2 Salatiga. Dalam penelitian ini, penulis menggunakan metode descriptive

qualitative. Data didapatkan melalui observasi, analisis konten dan wawancara siswa. Sementara

itu, yang menjadi sumber data adalah siswa, karya siswa dan kelas. Penelitian ini meliputi

kesalahaan-kesalahan apa pada fungsi sosial teks, struktur teks dan ciri kebahasaan yang

ditemukan dalam karya atau tulisan siswa pada teks eksposisi analitis dan juga masalah- masalah

yang di hadapi oleh siswa dalam menulis text eksposisi analitis. Hasil dari penelitian ini

menunjukkan bahwa ada 224 kesalahan dalam tulisan eksposisi analitis siswa yang muncul

dalam fungsi sosial, atruktur teks juga dalam kebahasaan. Kesalahan-kesalahan ini dapat di lihat

dari kalimat-kalimat siswa secara lebih rinci. Kesalahan- kesalahain tersebut meliputi kesalahan

penghilangan (omission), penambahan(addition), substitusi (substitution) atau kesalahan formasi

(misformation)dan kesalahan urutan kata (ordering or misordering). Hal ini bisa dibuktikan

dengan analisis data dan hasil wawancara terhada siswa. Kemudian, ada empat masalah utama

yang dihadapi oleh siswa ketika mereka menulis seperti; rendahnya penguasaan kosa kata,

kompleksitas tata bahasa, ketidaksukaan mempelajari eksposisi analitis, dan juga ketidaksukaan

menulis. Ini jelas bahwa menulis adalah suatu hal yang sangat rumit bagi siswa dalam hal tata

bahasa dan juga dalam mendapatkan gagasan.Sangat sulit untuk menyusun kata-kata atau kalimat

menjadi suatu paragraph yang bagus. Selanjutnya, kesalahan- kesalahan yang akan tampak

adalah kalimat yang tidak gramatikal dan tidak bisa diterima.

Kata Kunci: Analisis kesalahan, menulis and eksposisi analitis
