Abstract

The purpose of this study was to assess the capacity of Khairun University English Language Education students in their fifth semester to use independent and dependent clauses in complicated sentences. The emphasis was on distinguishing between intransitive and transitive independent sentences, as well as adverbial, adjectival, and nominal dependent clauses. A descriptive qualitative research approach was used with 33 fifth-semester students. A written test was used to collect data, with an interview serving as additional assistance. The average score for student' ability to use independent clauses was 59.64, which was classified as fair. In comparison, the average score for dependent clause usage was 60.27, which was classified as good. Overall, the students' average score for employing independent and dependent clauses was 62.12, indicating strong overall aptitude. Based on these data, Students demonstrated a stronger ability in identifying dependent clauses compared to independent clauses. Therefore, further research is needed to explore effective techniques, methods, or learning media that can enhance students' ability to identify clauses, particularly independent clauses

Abstract

Developing grammatical competence is crucial to mastering the English language because it enables learners to construct precise and meaningful sentences in both written and spoken contexts. The verb to be is one of the most significant grammatical elements since it can serve as a primary verb, an auxiliary verb, or a copula. However, EFL learners frequently struggle to use it appropriately, which frequently leads to errors in sentence construction, tense formation, and subject-verb agreement. Both their general language acquisition development and their academic writing abilities may suffer as a result of these persistent problems. In light of these issues, this study investigates the grammatical competence of university-level EFL (English as a Foreign Language) learners, focusing specifically on the misuse of the verb to be. The research employs a quantitative approach involving grammar tests and written analysis from fourth semester of English education students of Sekolah Tinggi Keguruan dan Ilmu Pendidikan Abdul Mujib Laewang Dampal Selatan. Results reveal frequent errors in subject–verb agreement, tense usage, and sentence structure, with misformation and omission being the most common error types. The findings suggest a need for more targeted grammar instruction and continuous practice in academic writing.
