Grammatical errors in writing narrative texts in English are quite diverse and often occur in new or experienced writers. The purpose of this study was to analyze grammatical errors in writing narrative texts and find the main causes of eleventh grade students at SMA Negeri 1 Siantan often making grammatical errors when writing narrative texts.
