Abstract

The aim of this study is to find out the types and its distribution of conjunction error in analytical exposition text written by the fourth semester students in the academic year of 2017/2018. Descriptive qualitative method is used as the research methodology. The result show that there are 49 errors found in the data. Omission has the most frequent error with 22 errors with the frequency of 44.90%. From the data, misformation has total 12 errors with the frequency of 24.49%. Next addition has 8 errors with the frequency of 16.33%. The last is misordering which has 7 errors with the frequency of 14.29%. The errors also could be classified into three categories of conjunction which are coordinate conjunctions, correlative conjunctions, and subordinate conjuntions. Coordinate conjunction has the most errors with 25 errors, then is followed by subordinate conjunction with 22 errors and the last one is correlative conjunction with only 2 errors. In short, it can be concluded that omission error is the highest error made by the student and coordinate conjunction has the most errors among the other conjunction types. It means that the students need to focus more on learning coordinate conjunction in writing their analytical exposition text.
