Abstract

Abstract Interference is the influence of first language (L1) into second language (L2)(negative interlingual transfer) that generally leads to errors. Thus the mother tongue of first language in fact interferes to the second language. Besides, markedness is the obvious factor contributing the errors as well. This study investigates the interference of Indonesian language (L1) into the English language acquisition commonly made by PMC, Prospective Model Class, students at Effective English Course (EEC) Jombang. More specifically, this study describes the influence of Indonesian pronunciation into English pronunciation acquisition that causes errors and the language-based factors that influence the occurrence of interference. The result of this research shows that the errors related to the interference of L1 are categorized into 12 kinds of errors: pronouncing silent ‘b’, pronouncing silent ‘c’, pronouncing silent ‘d’, pronouncing silent ‘g’, pronouncing silent ‘gh’, pronouncing silent ‘h’, pronouncing silent ‘k’, pronouncing silent ‘l’, pronouncing silent ‘p’, pronouncing silent ‘s’, pronouncing silent ‘t’, and pronouncing silent ‘w’. Keywords: L1 interference, markedness, PMC students

Abstract

Achmad Fanani Irta Fitriana Fakultas Bahasa dan Sastra Unipdu Jombang (akufanani@gmail.com) Abstrak Sistem bunyi (sound system) bahasa Inggris banyak berbeda dengan sistem bunyi bahasa Indonesia. Oleh karena itu sangat dimungkinkan seorang pembelajar Indonesia mengalami kesulitan bahkan kesalahan ketika harus melafalkan kata-kata dalam bahasa Inggris. Misalnya, sering sekali kita mendengar pembelajar bahasa Inggris mengucapkan "knowledge [nɔlədj]" dengan "[knɔlədj]", atau "sight [sait ]" dengan "[saig]". Penelitian ini difokuskan pada identifikasi kesalahan-kesalahan umum dalam pengucapan huruf diam (silent letters) dalam kata-kata bahasa Inggris oleh para pembelajar Indonesia tingkat pemula (novice). Penelitian ini sangat penting karena ratusan kata dalam bahasa Inggris mengandung huruf diam. Namun sayangnya, kebanyakan pembelajar bahasa Inggris tingkat pemula, dan bahkan juga tingkat menengah, salah dalam mengucapkan kata-kata tersebut. Mereka cenderung membunyikan huruf-huruf diam tersebut sehingga seringkali menyulitkan pemahaman lawan bicara. Dengan mengetahui kesalahan-kesalahan apa saja yang sering dibuat mahasiswa, maka akan dapat dirumuskan bahan ajar dan metode-metode pengajaran yang tepat untuk menangani masalah ini, yang tentu disesuaikan dengan konteks pembelajar Indonesia. Kata Kunci: huruf diam, novice high, kesalahan umum

Abstract

English is an international language and is used worldwide. Hence, it must be mastered by anyone who would like to interact and succeed internationally. Learning English is very important to do since early ages (more specifically since elementary school) to have better result. Unfortunately the government has made unpopular decision by removing English subject from the elementary school curriculum because of its potential to reduce the students’ sense of nationalism. In fact, there is no scientific evidence that prove learning English in early age can only reduce the students’ sense of nationalism. Indonesian people have been for long time dealing with foreign languages such as Arabic, Dutch, and Japanese. But the nationalism of Indonesian people in general remains high. In short, there is no need to remove this subject from the curriculum. Teaching English is actually can be used to raise the sense of nationalism. At least there are two ways that can be applied: internalization of nationalism values into the teaching materials and using songs of nationalism. Through these techniques it is expected that not only the children’s English but also their sense of nationalism will increase. Keywords: English, nationalism, internalization of values, nationalism songs Abstrak Bahasa Inggris adalah bahasa internasional dan digunakan di seluruh dunia. Oleh karena itu, ia harus dikuasai oleh siapapun yang ingin berinteraksi dan meraih kesuksesan secara internasional. Belajar bahasa Inggris sangat penting dilakukan sejak usia dini (lebih khusus lagi sejak SD) agar hasilnya lebih baik. Sayangnya pemerintah telah membuat keputusan yang tidak populer dengan menghapus pelajaran bahasa Inggris dari kurikulum sekolah dasar karena berpotensi mengurangi rasa nasionalisme siswa. Padahal, tidak ada bukti ilmiah yang membuktikan pembelajaran bahasa Inggris di usia dini bisa mengurangi rasa nasionalisme siswa. Orang Indonesia telah lama berurusan dengan bahasa asing seperti bahasa Arab, Belanda, dan Jepang. Tapi nasionalisme masyarakat Indonesia pada umumnya tetap tinggi. Singkatnya, tidak perlu mengeluarkan mata pelajaran Bahasa Inggris dari kurikulum. Pengajaran bahasa Inggris sebenarnya bisa digunakan untuk meningkatkan rasa nasionalisme. Setidaknya ada dua cara yang bisa diterapkan: internalisasi nilai nasionalisme ke dalam bahan ajar dan menggunakan lagu nasionalisme. Melalui dua cara ini diharapkan tidak hanya bahasa Inggris anak-anak yang meningkat tetapi juga rasa nasionalisme mereka. Kata kunci: bahasa Inggris, nasionalisme, internalisasi nilai, lagu nasionalisme
