Abstract

Learning English is so challenging especially to native speakers whose language sounds inventories are different from English. It will have been worst when learners are not aware of their problems. This article aims at formulating pedagogical implications of the phonological problems faced by the EFL learners in pronouncing standard English. The data in this research were obtained from the pronunciation test towards 30 EFL learners, 10 from each local language background (Sasak, Sumbawan, and Bimanese). The explanation begins with describing the pronunciation problems faced by the EFL Learners during the process of acquiring English and then followed with presenting the pedagogical implications that the learners can do to cope with the problems. The first pedagogical implication is the pronunciation training of changing voiceless bilabial stop [p] to make voiced and voiceless labiodental fricative [v] and [f] of English. The second is the pronunciation training of changing voiced and voiceless dental stops [D] and [T] to make voiced and voiceless alveolar stops [d] and [t], and the third is the pronunciation training of changing front middle sound [E] to central middle sound [ə] and [ɛ]. These pedagogical implications must be under a systematic and intensive training requiring the students’ awareness.

Abstract

Students’ awareness is one of the challenges in language learning, one of which is aware of strategies used and the problems in pronunciation to be able to correctly produce and pronounce the sounds in the target language. This study aims at analysing how concerned students are with pronunciation problems of English, the problems in English pronunciation, and the strategies used by students in coping with pronunciation problems. Mixed method, both quantitative and qualitative method is applied in this study. There are 20 students of English department in University of Mataram taken as sample in this study. The data reveals that, with the detail 11 items, most of the students are concerned, and 4 more items are the things that they are not concerned about. Meanwhile for the pronunciation problems, dental fricatives were the most common errors made by the students and followed by vowel sound and alveolar fricative as the second most error sounds, also pronunciation type of alveolar plosive, postalveolar fricative, retroflex plosive, affricative, and labiodental fricative were the least mispronounced. Thus students were also interviewed for pronunciation strategies, the result shows that most students used more than one strategies. This resulst is expected to give the students further information about new alternatives of strategies in coping with pronunciation problems to improve English speaking skill and enhance the theories and methods in the teaching of pronunciation.
