    ABSTRACT

    Asna Widadi (10701400110) AN ANALYSIS ON STUDENTS ERRORS INUSING CAN AND MAY. A Case Study at the Second Grade Students of MTs

    Negeri Parung Bogor. Skripsi of English Education at the Faculty of Tarbiya andTeacher s Training of State Islamic University Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta, 2014.

    Key Words : Errors, Can and May

    This study is aimed to find empirical evidence of major errors in using canand may which the Second Grade students of MTs Negeri Parung, Bogor made inthe even semester of the 2010- 2011 academic year.

    The sample of this study consisted of 40 students of VIII-2 class. The data

    were collected through test and interview. The collected data was analyzed byusing descriptive analysis by describing students errors and quantitative analysis

    by the formula of the percentage.

    The results of this study are as follows: (1) Based on the explanations onresearch findings, so the errors made by students consisting of word choice withthe percentage 81.31% , verb tense with the percentage 10.20%, and addition withthe percentage 8.49% . (2) The reason why students make errors in using can andmay caused by inter-lingual transfer in which the systems, rules, and patterns ofthe students native language distract their target language with the percentage65.78%. Next, the students make the errors caused by context of learning in which

    either the teachers, textbooks, or the patterns are improperly contextualized withthe percentage16.50%. At last, the students make the errors caused by intra-lingual transfer in which the students create the hypotheses which are not relatedto their first and target language with the percentage 17.72%.

    grammar. In other they did not make error in their using, but practically.

    Although all students have learned grammar sometimes they still made error

    to make sentence in their using.

    The writer concludes that making errors during the process of second

    language using is considered as a natural process. The teacher should

    beware of these errors by analyzing the learners error itself.

    Grammar is one of the language aspects which is taught to every

    learner. It is the basic knowledge and important role in understanding the

    English language. As Robert explained that grammar is a body of

    generalization about how people says thing in order to make generalization,

    we must agree on the meaning of terms for the thing we wish to talk about,

    grammar accuracy is only part in delivering our message, where grammar is

    merely a tool. 3 By using grammar we can delivery our message clearly and

    precisely.

    In grammar, the rules are taught to construct a good sentence, then it

    makes someone will be confident do communication with other people.

    People who have good grammar automatically they have a good idea to

    communicate. Ur noted that grammar is defined as words are put together

    to make correct sentences it does not only affect how the units of words are

    combined in order to make correct sentences but also affect their meaning. 4

    Without the knowledge of grammar the students will find many

    problems to build up the sentence and express their idea in communication

    activities. This is directly the same as Fernald ideas that grammar is the

    treatment of connected words as they are used for the expression of

    thought. 5

    As we know there are eight parts of speech in English grammar, there

    are noun, pronoun, adverb, verb, adjective, conjunction, preposition, and

    interjection. One of parts of speech is verb. When we study a verb, we will

    also study a Modal Auxiliaries. Modal Auxiliaries are of auxiliary verb

    (or helping verb) that can modify the grammatical mood (or mode) of a

    verb. Modal auxiliaries is a verb such as can, may or will that is used with

    another verb (not a modal) to express possibility, permission, intention, etc. 6

    These auxiliaries add to the verb a special semantic component such

    as expressing ability, possibility, permission, advice, necessity, lack of

    necessity, prohibition, asking for assistance, making logical conclusions,

    giving instructions, making suggestions and stating preferences. English

    learners need to be able to express the various meaning of modals as soon as

    possible in their communication with others.

    Modal auxiliaries have special grammatical features such as no

    infinitive after verb, and have no- s after the third singular. Most modal

    verbs have not only a grammatical function, but also a dictionary meaning,

    for instance, could can mean past ability, but that is not its only meaning.

    Another meaning of could is possibility.

    The writer is interested in discussing Modal Auxiliaries because based

    on her observation in the class, students get difficulty in using Modal

    Auxiliaries especially can and may in their sentences or paragraph. They do

    not understand what modal auxiliary is used. This difficult make causes

    them to errors in their writing.

    In using Modal Auxiliaries, the students have to know the kind of

    modal auxiliaries that used in the right way in the particular situation what

    they mean, and the form of modal auxiliaries. Because of the problem,

    therefore, the students think that modal auxiliaries are difficult. They have

    to memorize each meaning of Modal Auxiliaries and understand the form of

    its.

    Here are the examples of students error in using Modal Auxiliaries

    6

    She can to help me.

    The above sentence is wrong because the students use to infinitive

    after auxiliary can, whereas according to English structure auxiliaries are

    not followed by to infinitive but followed by infinitive without to , so the

    right sentence is:

    She can help me.

    And in other sentence:

    She cans swim well.

    The above sentence is wrong because the students add s after

    auxiliary can, whereas modal auxiliaries have no s on the third person

    singular, so the right sentence is:

    She can swim well.

    The writer concludes that one of the reasons of errors is the difficulty

    to understand the form of the modal auxiliaries for Indonesian learners,

    because Indonesian language does not have modality to express ability,

    possibility, probability, etc. as English does.

    After finding some problems mentioned above, the writer concludes

    that the problem is that the students are not aware of how to use modal

    auxiliaries correctly. The writer sees that there are so many errors that the

    students have made. The students dont u se these auxiliaries properly andare still being confused to use or choose the right auxiliaries in writing and

    communicating.

    Therefore, the writer tries to analyze the students errors in using

    modal auxiliaries especially can and may , so the writer makes a research

    entitled AN ANALYSIS ON STUDENTS ERROR IN USING CAN

    AND MAY (A Case Study at the Second G rade Students of M Ts Neger i

    Parung, Bogor).

  • 8/11/2019 Asna Widadi New

    18/75

    5

    The writer chooses can and may because most of students still confuse

    in using can and may and most of materials about modal auxiliary in

    English textbook are using can and may.

    B. The Limitation of the Study

    In this study, the writer focused on analyzing the students errors in

    using modal auxiliary can and may . To be more focused, the problem is

    limited on analyzing the students errors in using modal auxiliary can and

    may that are based on Betty Azars grammatical error classification. Here

    are the classifications: singular-plural, word form, word choice, verb tense,

    add word, omit word, word order, incomplete sentence, spelling

    punctuation, capitalization, article, meaning not clear, and run on sentence. 7

    C. The Formulation of the Study

    Based on the background of the study, the writer would like to

    formulate the problems as follows:

    1. What grammatical errors did The MTs Negeri Parung, Bogor s Second

    Grade Students make in using can and may?

    2. What are the sources of the students grammatical errors?

    D. The Objective of the Study

    This study is aimed to find empirical evidence of major errors in using

    can and may which the Second Grade students of MTs Negeri Parung,

    Bogor made in the even semester of the 2010- 2011 academic year.

    CHAPTER II

    THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK

    In this chapter, the writer explains some theories that still relate to the topic.

    First, the writer explains the definition of error analysis that consist of the

    understanding of error analysis, goal of error analysis, types of error, sources of

    error, and differences between error and mistake. Second, she explains definition

    of Modal Auxiliary, kinds of Modal Auxiliary, and Modal Auxiliary can and may.

    A. ERRORS

    Errors are the flawed side of learner speech or writing. They are those parts

    of conversation or composition that deviate from some selected norm of mature

    language performance. 1 Making errors is an inevitable part of learning. It is

    impossible that learners never make any errors in language learning process.

    Students can make errors when they write or speak and it is natural. The errors

    that they make are even potentially important for the understanding of language

    and it is as a part of learning process.

    The study of errors is carried out by means of Error Analysis (EA). In the

    1970s, error analysis supplanted contrastive analysis , which sought to predict the

    errors that learners make by identifying the linguistic differences between their

    first language and the target language. 2

    B. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ERROR AND MISTAKEWhen we talk about error it is always connected to mistake. Some people

    even think that the term of error and mistake are the same and they commonly

    cannot see the distinction between both of them. Error and mistake are different.

    Jacek Fisiak in his book; Contrastive Linguistics and the Language Teacher mad

    a distinction between them: Error are systematic, consistent deviances

    characteristic of the learners linguistic system at a given sta ge of learning.

    Mistakes are deviations due to performance factors such as memory limitations

    (e.g. spelling pronunciations, fatigue, emotional strain, etc. they are typically

    random and are readily corrected by the learner when his attention is drawn to

    them. 3

    Mistakes are skin to slips of the tongue. That is, they are generally one-time-

    only events. The learner who makes a mistake is able to recognize it is a mistake

    and correct it if necessary. On the other hand, an error is systematic. That is, it is

    likely to occur repeatedly and is not recognized by the learner as an error. The

    learner in this case has incorporated erroneous form from the persectives of the

    target language into his or her system. 4

    Hubbard et al. also make difference between error and mistake. Errors

    caused by lack of knowledge about the target language English or by incorrect

    hypothesis about it; and unfortunate mistake caused by temporary lapse of

    memory, confusion, slip of the tongue and so on. 5 In other words, Ellis stated

    that Error is a lack of knowledge and mistake is the students posses knowledge

    of the correct form and it is just slipping up. 6

    Brown also gave the similar opinion about error and mistake. According to

    him, an error is a noticeable from the adult grammar of a native speaker, reflects

    the competence of the learner. And a mistake is slip, a failure to utilize a known

    system correctly. An error cannot be self corrected, while mistake can be self

    corrected if the deviation is pointed out to speaker. 7

    Based on the opinions above the writer summed up that error caused by lack

    recognize it unless other people or their teacher corrected them and it cannot be

    self corrected. While mistake happened because temporary laps of memory and

    also slip of the tongue, actually the students have known about what they write

    but they just slip up and they can correct and recognize their own mistakes.

    C. ERROR ANALYSIS

    1. The Understanding of Error Analysis

    Learning a target language (English) is different from learning

    ones mother tongue. There are some opinions about error analysis.

    Brown in his book stated that Errors can be observed, analyzed, and

    classified to reveal something of the system operating within the learner,

    led to a surge o f study of learners errors, called error analysis. 8 It

    seems this concept is the same as the one proposed by Crystal Error

    Analysis is a technique for identifying, classifying, and systematically

    interpreting the unacceptable forms produced by someone learning a

    foreign language, using any of the principles and procedures provided by

    linguistic 9 Ellis explained in her book that Error analysis was one of

    the first methods used to investigate learner language. 10

    From the definitions above, the writer summarize that error

    analysis is an activity to identify, classify, and interpreted or describe the

    errors made by someone in speaking or in writing and it is carried out to

    obtain information on common difficulties faced by someone in

    speaking or in writing English sentences.

    2. The Procedure of Error Analysis

    There are some procedures in analyzing the learner errors. Corder

    suggests in Ellis the following steps in error analysis; collection of

    8 Brown (1987), op.cit ., p.259 9 D. Crystal, The Cambridge Encyclopedia of Language, (Cambridge: Cambridge

    University Press, 1987), p. 78 10 Ellis (2008), op.cit., p.68

  • 8/11/2019 Asna Widadi New

    23/75

    10

    sample of learner language, identification of errors, description of

    errors, explanation of errors and evaluation of errors. 11

    First, collection of a sample of learner language. It is deciding

    what sample of learner language to use for the analysis and how to

    collect these samples. We can identify three board types of error analysis

    according to the size of the sample.

    Second, identification of errors. After the learner language has

    been collected, the errors have to be identified. To identify errors we

    have to compare the sentences learners produce with what seem to be

    normal or correct sentences in the target language which correspond

    with them. 12

    Third, description of errors. When the errors have been identified,

    they can be described. There are several ways of doing this. One way is

    to classify errors into grammatical categories. Another way might be to

    try to identify general ways in which the learners utterances differ from

    the reconstructed target language utterances. 13 As Ellis stated that The

    description of learner errors involves a comparison of the learners

    idiosyncratic utterances with a reconstruction of those utterances in the

    target language .14

    Fourth, explaination of errors. After the errors have been identified

    and described, the next step is to try to explain them. Explanation is

    concerned with establishing the source of the error, i.e. accounting for

    why it was made. 15

    At last, evaluation of errors. Because the purpose of the error

    analysis to help learners learn second language, so there is a need to

    evaluate errors. It involves a consideration of the effect that errors have

    11 Ellis (2008), op.cit., p. 4812 Rod Ellis, Second Language Acquisition, (New York: Oxford University Press, 1997),

    p.1613 Ibid p. 1814

    Ellis (2008), op.cit , p. 5415 Ellis (2008), op.cit, p. 57

  • 8/11/2019 Asna Widadi New

    24/75

    11

    on the person (s) addressed. 16 The design of error evaluation studies

    involves decisions on who the addressed (i.e. the judges) will be, what

    errors they will be asked to judge, and how they will be asked to judge

    them. 17

    Based on the explanation above, the writer summarize that the

    procedure of error is the several steps to carry out an error analysis.

    There are collection of sample of learner language, identification of

    errors, description of errors, explanation of errors and evaluation of

    errors.

    3. Goal of Error Analysis

    The most typical use of the error analysis is the teachers. It is

    designing teacher pedagogical material and strategies. Analysis is as a

    tool for investigating how learners acquire a second language and to

    provide the feedback value for the teacher.18

    Dullay stated that studyingstudents errors serves two major purposes: 19

    a. It provides data from which inferences about the nature of the

    language learning process can be made.

    b. It indicates to teachers and curriculum developers which part of the

    target language students have most difficulty producing correctly and

    which errors types detract most learners ability to communicate

    effectively.

    4. Types of Error

    Each student has different types in making errors when they write

    paragraphs. According to Azzar in his book, types of errors fall into

    up.

    Furthermore, based on surface strategy taxonomy, there are four

    types of error; 21

    a. Omission

    Omission errors are characterized by absence of an item that must

    appear in a well-formed utterance. Omission can occur morphology.

    Learner often omits the third person singular morpheme s, the

    progressive ing, the plural marker s and the past tense inflection-ed. A

    learner could say, for example: A strange happen to me yesterday . In

    syntax, learners may omit certain elements, which are obligatory, for

    example: Must say also the names? instead of Must also say the

    names?

    b. Addition

    Addition errors are characterized by the presence of an item which

    must not appear in a well-formed utterance. There are three types of

    addition where errors have been observed in the speech of L1 and L2,

    namely double markings, regularization, and simple addition.

    1) Double markings

    Double markings are two items rather than one that is marked for

    the same feature. Dulay states that This error is the defined as the

    failure to delete certain items which are required in some linguistic

    21 Dullay (1982), loc.cit.

    27/75

  • 8/11/2019 Asna Widadi New

    28/75

    15

    2) Archi-form

    Archi-form is the selection of one member of a class of forms to

    represent others in the class. For example in the sentence: I ve many

    questions to ask him .

    3) Alternating form

    As the learners 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. It means that the more

    grammar that the learners get, the high frequency of error that the

    learner made. For example: I like he . This sentence is example of

    errors in using pronoun.

    d. Misordering

    Misordering errors are characterized by the incorrect placement of

    morpheme or group of morpheme in an utterance. For example: what

    daddy is doing? the correct one is what is daddy doing?

    5. Sources of Error

    Brown claims that there are three major sources of error. He labels

    interlingual transfer, intralingual transfer, and context of learning. 22

    a. Interlingual transfer

    Interlingual transfer happened because the native language or mother

    language interference. In these early stages, before the system of second

    language is familiar, the native language is the only linguistic system in

    previous experience upon which the learner can draw. 23 This opinion is

    supported by Richards et, al. that Interlingual error is an error which

    results from language transfer, that is, which is caused by the learners

    native language. 24

    22 Brown (1987), op cit., p.22323 Ibid p. 22424

    Jack C. Richard, Platt John, and Plat Heidi, Longman Dictionary of Language Teachingand Applied Linguistic, Second Edition, (New York: Longman, 1992), p. 185

  • 8/11/2019 Asna Widadi New

    29/75

    16

    b. Intralingual transfer

    Intralingual transfer (the transfer within the target language itself).

    Researcher have found that the early stages of language learning are

    characterized by a predominance of interference (interlingual transfer),

    but once learner have begun to acquire parts of the new system, more

    and more intralingual transfer generalization within the target language

    is manifested. 25

    Richards et. al. gave the same opinion that An Intral anguage error

    is one which results from faulty or partial learning of the target

    language, rather than from language transfer. 26 Intralangual errors may

    be caused by the influence of one target language item upon another. For

    example a learner may produce He is comes , based on a blend of the

    English structures He is coming or He comes.

    c. Context of learning

    Context refers, for example, to classroom with its teacher and its

    materials in the case of school learning or the social situation in the case

    of untutored second language learning. In a classroom context the

    teacher or the textbook can lead the learner make faulty hypotheses

    about the language. Students often make error because of a misleading

    explanation from the teacher, faulty presentation of a structure or word

    in a textbook, or even because of a pattern that was rottenly memorized

    in a drill but properly contextualized. 27

    As quoted by Hubbard, Corder point out that there are three major

    causes of error. Those are mother tongue interference, overgeneralizations,

    and errors encouraged by teaching or method. 28

    a. Mother- tongue interference

    Although young children appear to be able to learn a foreign

    language quite easily and to reproduce new sounds very effectively,

    25 Ibid, p.18626 Ibid., p. 18727

    Brown (1987), op.cit , p. 26628 Hubbard (1983), op.cit , p. 140 142

  • 8/11/2019 Asna Widadi New

    30/75

    17

    older learners experience considerable difficulty. The sound system

    (phonology) and the grammar of the first language impose themselves

    on the new language and this leads to a foreign pronunciation, faulty

    grammatical patterns and occasionally to wrong choice of vocabulary.

    b. Overgeneralization

    The mentalist theory claims that the learner processes new

    language data in his mind and produces rules for its production, based on

    evidence. Where the data are inadequate or the evidence only partial,

    such rules may well produce the following patterns. Where you went

    yesterday? , and where did go yesterday?.

    c. Error encouraged by teaching material or method

    Errors appear to be induced by the teaching process itself. Error is

    evidence of failure of ineffective teaching or lack oil control. If the

    material is well chosen, graded and presented with meticulous care, there

    should be any error. It is fairly easy to accept this in the early stages of

    language learning when controls are applied in the shape of substitution

    tables, conversion exercises of a mechanical nature and guided sentence

    patterns, but more difficult at later stages. However, i t might be salutary

    for as bear in mind the possibility of some of our students error being

    due to our own teaching.

    D. MODAL AUXILIARY

    1. The Understanding of Modal Auxiliary

    Modals express special meaning such as ability, necessity, and

    permission. Because English learners need to be able to express the various

    meanings of modals as soon as possible in their communication with others,

    modals are among the first grammar topics taught in most English language

    courses. 29

    29

    18

    Meanwhile, Azar stated that modal auxil iaries generally express a

    speakers attitudes or moods. For example, modal can express that a

    speaker feels something necessary, advisable, permissible, possible, or

    probable; and in addition, they can convey the strength of these attitudes. 30

    In addition, according to Janet Ross and Gladys Doty explained that

    auxiliary verbs called modals are used with the simple form of the verb to

    express hypothetical conditions and conjectures as well as attitudes. 31

    Based on the opinions above the writer concluded that modal

    auxiliaries are functional words that help verbs to express specific meaning

    such as ability, probability, possibility, obligatory, etc. Such modal

    auxiliaries are can, could, may, might, will, would, shall, should, and ought

    to.

    2. Kinds of Modal Auxiliaries

    According to Azar the types of modal auxiliaries can be divided into

    two types. First, modal auxiliaries can, could, had better, may, might, must,

    ought to, shall, should, will, and would . Second, similar expressions: be able

    to, be going to, be supposed to, be to, have to, have got to, used to. 32 Modal

    auxiliaries express concepts or attitudes relating to recommendation,

    obligation, necessity, and prohibition; permission and refusal; possibility,

    expectation, probability and certainty; promise and intention; ability and

    willingness. 33

    Swan stated that modal verbs have several points in common whichmake them quite different from other verbs:

    University Press), 1971. p. 3

  • 8/11/2019 Asna Widadi New

    32/75

    19

    a. Modal verbs are not used (except sometimes in the negative) to talk

    about things which are definitely happening, or have definitely happened.

    They are used when we say that we expect things to happen, or that

    events are possible, or necessary, or improbable, or impossible, or when

    we say that things did not happen, or that we are not sure whether they

    happened.

    e.g.: I cant swim .

    She could be in London or Paris or Tokyo- nobody knows.

    I may come tomorrow if I have time.

    You might have told me Frances was ill.

    What would you do if you had a free year?

    I think they should have consulted a doctor earlier.

    b. Modal verbs have no s on the third person singular; questions and

    negatives are made without do; they are followed by the infinitive

    without to of other verbs (except for ought).

    e.g.: You neednt look at me like that.

    He must be here by nine oclock.

    Can your mother drive ?

    That ought to be enough.

    c. Modal verbs have no infinitives, and other expressions are used instead,

    when necessary.

    e.g.: Id like to be able to skate .

    You are going to have to work earlier.

    d. Modal verbs have no past forms. Could and would are used with pastmeanings in some cases (but never to say that particular events actually

    happened on define occasion).

    e. Modal verbs can be used with perfect infinitives to talk about things

    which did not happen, or which we are not sure about, in the past.

    e.g.: You should have told me at once.

    20

    Her car may have broken down .34

    Actually, there are two groups of auxiliary verb. The first includes the

    functional auxiliary verbs be, do, have and go. 35 They do not really have

    meanings of this kind when they are used as auxiliary verbs. 36 All of

    these verbs can also serve as main verbs as well as auxiliaries.

    Examples: I do not understand your question.

    We are going to visit my uncle. 37

    The second includes the modals auxiliaries can, may, might, must,

    should, and so on. They differ from the other auxiliaries ( do, be, have, and

    go ) in that they have no s-forms, or ing -forms, or participles. Furthermore,

    they so called past forms of modals sometimes express the same meaning as

    the present or simple forms. They also occur in statements which refer to

    future time. Thus, the form of a modal does not necessarily indicate the time

    reference of the sentence in which it is used. 38 There serve both as structural

    signals and have a meaning of their own. They are never used as main

    verbs.

    Examples: We can see the zoo some weekday.

    Can we see the zoo some weekday?

    You shouldnt try to go there on Sunday.

    Should we try to go there on Sunday? 39

    According to Cowan , modals can be classified according to form and

    meaning. The form of modals can be categorized into three categories; pure

    modals, marginal modals, and semi modals .

    Prantice Hall of India, 1977), p. 23439 Hall (1993), loc cit.

  • 8/11/2019 Asna Widadi New

    34/75

    21

    The first category, pure modals, is comprised of verbs such as can,

    could, and may. It display all four the characteristics mentioned such as

    contraction, inversion, repetition, in resorts and tags, and invariant form. 40

    Nine central modal auxiliary verbs are used to express modality: can, could,

    may, might, shall, should, will, would, must. These are invariant forms

    taking the role of auxiliary; they precede the negative particle not in

    negation and precede the subject in yes-no questions. They are followed in

    the verb phrase by a bare infinitive verb. In general, modals cannot co-occur

    with each other in the verb phrase; however, some regional dialects allow

    modals in series (such as might could or might should ).41

    The second category, marginal modals, has only three members- dare,

    need, and ought to. They are classified as marginal because they display

    only two of syntactic characteristic of pure modals.

    The modals in the third category, semi modals 42 (other terms used for

    these expressions are quasi -modals and periphrastic modals) 43, are fixed

    idiomatic expression beginning with have , had , or be for example, have

    to, had better , and be going to .44

    In addition, there are several multiword expression, such as be able

    to, be obliged to , and be willing to , that have meanings similar to those of

    modals. 45

    Modals are all defective verbs in the sense that they do not have all

    the principal parts of English verbs. They also have meanings of their own,which separates them from the functional auxiliaries. The modals have a

    dual use. First, they have meanings of their own; and second, they also are

    35/75

    22

    used like the functional auxiliaries to form negatives and questions. 46 All of

    these modals can also be grouped according to the meanings they express.

    Many modals have meanings in addition to basic meanings related to these

    groupings. In Basic Meaning of Modals, modals can be categorized into

    three groups according to meaning.

    a. Modals of ability, permission, and possibility. This group includes

    the modals can, could, may and might.

    b. Modals of advice and necessity. This group includes must, should,

    dare, need, have to, had better, had best, have got to, ought to, and be supposed to.

    c. Modals for expressing future time. This group of modals includes

    shall, will, would, and be going to .47

    3. Modal Auxiliary C an and M ay

    a. Can

    Can is one of modal auxiliaries that use to assist verbs to expressability, possibility, permission, offering, request and order and it is followed

    by the bare infinitive. The past tense form of can, namely, could. Can is

    used informally to request permission, especially if the speaker is talking to

    someone she/he knows fairly well. 48

    Like other modal auxiliaries can is usual placed before the predicates

    of the sentence in positive sentence, for example: He can swim. In negative

    sentence, modals need not between the modal and the verb, for example:

    He can not swim. In interrogative sentences, they precede the subject of the

    sentence, for example: Can he swim?.

    Can used to express:

    1) Ability

    Cowan (2008), loc cit. 48 Azar (1989), loc cit.

  • 8/11/2019 Asna Widadi New

    36/75

    23

    Can is used to indicate the possession of ability in general,

    or being in a position, in particular circumstances, to perform

    the activity denoted by the main verb. 49 Can means be able to

    do something, or know how to do something. 50 Can express

    the ability to do something in the immediate present or in the

    future.

    a) Present ability

    e.g.: George can read English quite well now.

    b) Future ability

    e.g.: I can help you next week.

    2) Permission

    Can is used in statements implying permission as well as

    ability. 51 It is used to request permission to do something. Can is

    possible and can be used for the present or future and can is the

    most informal, and is actually better than may in requests for

    permission involving the negative. 52

    The following details are the use of can to express

    permission.

    a) Asking for permission

    e.g.: Can I see your railway time-table? 53

    b) Giving permission

    e.g.: You can go home now.3) Possibility

    24

    Another meaning of can is to show possibility of

    something.

    e.g.: He can ski on the hills. 54

    4) Offering

    Can is also often used to offer something to another

    people.

    e.g.: I can lend you a pound till Wednesday, if that will

    help.

    Can I carry your bag?

    5) Request and orders

    Can is also used to make someone to do something, or to

    orders someone to do as they are orders. For example, in

    restaurant, when customers make an order, they may ask waiters

    to bring them meals, drinks, desert, cigarette, etc.

    e.g.: Can you come here, please?

    b. May

    May is one of modal auxiliaries that used to express possibility. The

    past tense form of may, namely, Might. In Formal style, it is also used in

    statements that give authoritative permission. 55 It expresses permission in

    formal usage or to indicate that something is allowed. Present or future time

    is indicated.

    According to Jannet Ross and Gladys Doty (1975), may sometimes

    indicates conjecture about the future. When used in this sense, the past tense

    is indicated by may have, for example: It may rain tomorrow. (There is a

    strong possibility) and It may have rained while we were gone. (The speaker

    is not sure whether it did or not). 56

    Like other modal auxiliaries may is usual placed before the predicates

    of the sentence in positive sentence, for example: You may go now. In

    negative sentence, modals need not between the modal and the verb, for

    example: You may not go now. In interrogative sentences, they precede the

    subject of the sentence, for example: May you go now?.

    May used to express:

    1) Possibility

    e.g.: He may tell his wife. 57

    2) Permission

    e.g.: The children may play here. 58

    From above explanation, it is obviously clear that can and may ,can carry many functions or meanings. Can may be used to express

    ability, to express permission, to show possibility, to offers something, and

    to make a request or orders, and may can be used to express possibility and

    permission.

    RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

    This chapter presents the research of methodology which is consist of the

    place and the time, the method, the population, the sample of the research,

    technique of data collecting and also technique of data analysis.

    A. The Research Methodology

    1. The Place and Time of the Research

    The writer did the research at MTs Negeri Parung which is located on Jl.Raya Lebak Wangi, Parung- Bogor. The research was carried on May 6 th

    may 20 th 2011.

    2. The Method of the Research

    In this research, the writer used descriptive analysis method and used the

    procedures of errors analysis itself. This method is purposed to analyze the

    students errors by interviewing and giving them the test to collect the data. Next, it involved accumulating, analyzing, and classifying data with various

    techniques, also interpreting data. On the final step, the writer had to conclude

    the result of research.

    3. The Population and Sample

    The population of this research was the second grade students of MTs

    Negeri Parung Bogor. There are 193 students which are divided into five

    classes; VIII-1, VIII-2, VIII-3, VIII-4, and VIII-5. The writer used purposive

    a. The test

    The writer gave the test to know the frequency of errors in using

    modal auxiliaries can and may. The test which consisted of 30 items.

    There are 20 questions of multiple choices and 10 questions of fill in

    the blank. The test was divided into two parts, 15 items were about the

    meaning and the function of modal auxiliary can and may. And the

    tests were about the verb which could be used in modal auxiliaries

    sentence or called the form of modal auxiliaries. The distribution of

    test could be seen in the table below.

    5. The Technique of Data Analysis

    After collecting the data from the test, the writer analyzed the students

    errors by using descriptive analysis technique (percentage) and quantitative,

    because the writer describes some students errors and uses numerical data in

    this skripsi which is described in the table of percentage the writer used this

    formula: 1

    P = F x 100%F + C

    P = Percentage

    F = Frequency of Errors

    C = Correct Answers

    changing the result of errors into percentage. By calculating the errors, she

    knows the students score. Then, she does the interview not only to the students

    who get the bad and the good score but also to the English teacher of class

    VIII-2.

    2. The Analysis of the Data

    After the writer did the research, she got fr equency of students errors of

    modal auxiliaries can and may; he would like to analyze what errors existing

    on all items, and why errors occurred in multiple choice and fill in the blank.

    The table below explaining the errors explanation in entire parts, as follows:

    Table 4.2

    Table of Number of Classification of Errors Explanation

    From the table 4.4 above, there are 335 errors committed in word choice

    with 81.31% because the students put inappropriate words to be used in a

    sentences. There are 42 errors committed in verb tense with 10.20% because

    the students might not know the correct tense in the use of can and may. At

    last, There are 35 errors committed in addition with 8.49% because the

    students add inappropriate words in the form of can and may. Here the

    Table 4.3

    Table of Number of Causes of Errors Explanation

    Based on the table 4.5 above, there are 271 errors caused by inter-lingual

    transfer with 65.78% because the students might be influenced by their mother

    tongue influences in terms of patterns, systems, or rules. Then, there are 68

    errors caused by intra-lingual transfer with 16.50% because the students might

    strive to derive the rules behind the data to which has ben exposed by the

    students, and may develop hypotheses related neither to their mother tongue

    nor to their target language.

    Also there are 73 errors caused by context learning with 17.72% because

    the teachers or the textbooks may lead the students to create faulty hypotheses

    about the language. Students might make errors because of a misleading

    explanation from either to the teachers, textbooks, or patterns memorizing.

    = 79 x 100%79 + 321

    = 7900400

    = 19.75%

    From the data above, the writer can conclude that the average of the

    students errors in using the form of can and may is 19.75%, and it can be

    concluded that the rest is 80.25%, which means that the majority of the

    students did not do errors on the test.

    3. The Interpretation of the Data

    Based on the analysis of the results above, it can be observed that word

    choice errors are the highest with 335 errors and the percentage is 81.31%. it

    means that the most students choose words that should not be put in sentence

    on the test. Next, there are 42 errors in verb tense with 10.20% and 35 errors in

    addition with 8.49%.

    In addition, it can be concluded that inter-lingual transfer is the cause of

    errors that interference the students most with 65.78%, which occur due to the

    CHAPTER V

    CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTION

    This chapter presents about the conclusion of the research and the

    suggestion for the teachers and the students.

    A. The Conclusion

    Based on the explanation on research findings, so the errors made by

    students in using can and may consist of word choice with the percentage 81.31%,

    verb tense with the percentage 10.20%, and addition with the percentage 8.49% .

    The reason why the students make errors in using can and may caused by

    inter-lingual transfer in which the system s, rules, and patterns of the students

    native language distract their target language with the percentage 65.78%. Next,

    the students make the errors caused by context of learning in which either the

    teachers, textbooks, or the patterns are improperly contextualized with the

    percentage16.50%. At last, the students make the errors caused by intra-lingual

    transfer in which the students create the hypotheses which are not related to their

    first and target language with the percentage 17.72%.

    B. The Suggestion

    Based on the students errors in using can and may, the writer would like

    to give some suggestions as follow:

    1. For the teacher:

    a. Teachers should give motivation for students in learning can and may

    because most students assume that English is one of the most difficult

    subject matters in their study.

    b. The English teacher should explain the rules of grammatical form

    especially modal auxiliaries can and may clearly until student understand

    the material they learn.

    c. Teachers should give more exercises and practices to students in learning

    can and may especially each meaning of its.

  • 8/11/2019 Asna Widadi New

    54/75

    41

    d. Teachers sometimes teach English by using games in order for students to

    understand more and they will feel funny when studying English,

    especially about modal auxiliary can and may .

    2. For students:

    a. The Students have to study more about Modal auxiliaries to make it easy

    to understand.

    b. The students not only have to listen to the teachers explanation but also to

    practice what the materials have already been explained in their home.

    c. The Students have to know and memorize each meaning of modal auxiliry

    especially can and may.
