Abstract

This study aims to determine the pronunciation errors of phonemes produced by students of Muhammadiyah University of Bulukumba. This study applies a qualitative paradigm. The subjects of this study were second semester students of the Department of English Education with low proficiency levels at the University of Muhammadiyah Bulukumba. Students were asked to pronounce 24 consonant sounds at the beginning, middle, and end of the word to find the data. Students' pronunciation was then phonologically analyzed based on the classification of pronunciation errors found by Moulton, W. G. (1962).The results shows that errors in the pronunciation of English consonants are found in stop voicess, fricative, africative, nasal and semi-vowel consonants. The types of errors in the pronunciation of consonant phonemes are allophones, phonemics and phonetics errors. Allophone error is found in the stop voiceless consonants /p/, /t/, and /k/ which were found at the beginning of the syllable. Phonemic and phonetic errors are found in the pronunciation of voiced /v/, voiced /z/, voiceless /θ/, voiced /ð/, and voiceless /ʃ/. The same error is also found in voiceless /ʃ/ which was pronounced without using the sound /h/, as well as phonetic errors that was pronounced using the sound /t/. Phonetic errors are also found in the pronunciation of fricative sounds /tʃ/ and /dᴣ/, nasal /ƞ/ and semi vowel sounds /j/ which were pronounced not in accordance with the actual sound, thus other meaningless sounds are formed.

Abstract

Pronunciation is one of the speaking elements that must be mastered by foreign learners. However, students still found difficulties when pronouncing English words. Therefore, tongue twister was thought to be one effective technique to help students articulate the English words. The research applied pre-experimental design with only one experiment class. The class consisted of 15 participants from English Education Departement Program of Universitas Muhammadiyah Bulukumba and was chosen through purposive sampling technique. Statistical technique was applied to confirm the hypotheisis. Based on the test of significance result, it was found out that t test value is higher than the t table value (2.0351.708). This indicates that students’ pronunciation skills improved after students learnt with tongue twister which was combined with some other methods. Furthermore, it is also informed that there were some kinds of pronunciation errors made and the dominant errors found is phonetic errors due to the effect of students’ native language systems.
