Keywords:
Consonant, error analysis, phonological error, pronunciationAbstract
This study was based on phenomena observed in vocational high schools. Students have poor pronunciation abilities. They have difficulty pronouncing English words with the segmental characteristics of English phonemes that contain consonants. The researcher focuses on the consonants /v/, /θ/, /ð/, /ʃ/, /ʒ/, /ʧ/, and /dʒ/, which do not exist in Indonesian, so students are unfamiliar with these sounds. As a result, this thesis focuses on analyzing sound pronunciation errors made by students at SMK N 7 Bandar Lampung. This study aims to classify the types of errors made by students when pronouncing consonant sounds and to pinpoint the location of sound errors in pronunciation. This study used qualitative descriptive analysis. The research subjects were female students from SMK N 7 Bandar Lampung, and the sample size was 13 students in class 12 majoring in marketing, selected using purposive sampling techniques. To collect data, this study asked students to say several words chosen by researchers based on words they frequently heard. The researcher then used Kenworthy's theory to analyze the student's pronunciation recording to determine the type of sound error the student made. After analyzing student recordings, we discovered 16 errors made by students. The most common mistakes are substitutions. The sixteen types of deviations include replacing [v] with [f] and [p], replacing [ð] with [d], [t], and [θ], replacing [θ] with [t], [d], and [th], replacing [t∫] with [c] and [∫], replacing [dʒ] with [j], [d], and [g], and replacing [ʒ] with [j], [∫], and [dʒ]
