This research entitled (title) aims to describe students' mistakes in using affixation when creating text. Affixation errors are in the form of prefixes (prefixes), infixes (insertions), suffixes (endings), and confixes (combinations) contained in students' argumentative texts.

This research uses a qualitative approach, descriptive methods and content analysis techniques. The data collected was the work of students in the form of argumentation texts for class. To analyze this work, this research used an instrument in the form of an affixation error analysis table. From the results of this analysis, there were 144 errors in the use of affixation. Based on the details, there were errors in prefixes (prefixes) in 54 words, suffixes (endings) in 3 words, confixes (combinations) in 57 words, and there were no errors in infixes (insertions).
