Abstract

The purposes of this research paper are finding out types of errors, dominant types of errors and the source of errors made by the second year student of SMP Negeri 3 Gondangrejo. The data are taken from the erroneous passive sentences of the test given by the researcher to the students of SMP Negeri 3 Gondangrejo in class A that consists of 40 students. In analyzing the data, the writer takes document as technique of collecting data. The data are classified based on the surface strategy taxonomy including the grammatical rules. The writer calculates the frequency of errors for each type and also counts the percentages of errors in the form of table to determine the dominant type of errors. Finally, the researcher analyzes the source of errors. After analyzing the data, the researcher found 396 error passive sentences. Those errors fulfill four categories of surface strategy taxonomy. There are omissions (190 errors or 47.97%), addition (16 errors or 4.64%), misformation (58 errors or 14.65%) and misordering (132 errors or 33.33%). Therefore, the omission error has the highest frequency (190 errors or 47.97%). It proves that the students do not understand the pattern of passive sentence since they often ignore to put an item needed in the well-formed passive sentence, particularly in omitting to be in the passive sentence. In this research, the writer found that those errors are caused by interlangual tasnfer and intralingual transfer. Interlangual transfer is the errors caused by the mother tongue influence. While, intralingual transfer is the error caused by the target language influence.
