SOAL & JAWABAN

1. Context of learning (false concept) can be one of the sources of language error possibly
made by the learners. Whatever does the context of learning refer to? Mention them and
explain each of them sufficiently. (score 15)
= Context refers, for example:
a. The classroom with its teacher
b. The material in the case of school learning, or
c. The social situation in the case of untutored second language leaning.
Context of Learning:
 Teacher/Classroom/Material (induced errors, false concept, misleading
explanation)
 Untutored (Sociolinguistic)

2. When a learner cannot produce/express He didn’t speak the truth, s/he changes it into
He is a liar, but it is not semantically correct. What learning strategy does s/he apply?
Why does s/he choose to produce/express He is a liar? Explain correctly and give the
appropriate logic. (score 15)
= The learning strategy or communication strategies that s/he apply is Avoidance,
because learners of a second language may learn to avoid talking about topics for which
they lack the necessary vocabulary or other language skill in second language.

3. He doesn't knows my name. The sentence contains a grammatical error. What type of
error does it belong to? How can the learner produce such an error? What background
knowledge/understanding/competence may influence the emergence of the error?
Explain your answer as well as possible. (score 15)
= The type of error is Addition errors, and the sample of error in language is Double
marking. Double marking such assessments has been seen as a way of improving the
reliability of the mark.
Ex: I was really hate it (hated)

4. Developmental errors are errors similar to those made by children learning the target
language as their first language. Explain adequately the statement. (score 10)
= A developmental error is one that occurs as a result of the learning process (it is
happening when the learners hypothesize the target language based on their limited
language). For example, the majority of speech sound errors made by internationally
adopted children are common developmental errors.

5. There are three interrelated aspects/features of words, namely form, meaning, and
distribution. When we learn vocabulary, especially content words, we have to consider
all of them with no exception. How are they interrelated in a word? Explain them well
with illustration/examples. (score 15)
= Form (of words):
a. sound segment, stress, pitch, amount (food, gift, to)
b. It depends on the form of the situation, the speed of speaking, the position in the
sentence, the position of the accent.
Meaning (of words)
a. The meaning is the same in all languages. Languages differ only in the forms used
for these meanings.

b. Meaning is culturally determined or modified and varies from culture to culture

c. Meaning of word as word = lexical meaning, e.g. tree, building, horse (vs.
morphological meaning)
DISTRIBUTION (of words)
1. grammatically constrained, such as water used as both a verb and a noun parts of speech
2. Languages that are geographically and socially indicated (ain't)
3. stylistically constrained, such as words used in poetry and everyday speech

6. When we compare vocabularies of two languages (Indonesian and English), what

possible problems may we encounter? Explain your answer correctly. (score 15)
= Bahasa Indonesia keeps it simple in the way it describes an object of which there is
more than one: merely repeat the work, as in buku buku or anak anak; or add a plural
determiner, such as banyak lukisan, para penonton and sejumlah toko. As for English
plural forms are a bit more complicated. Firstly, they are divided into two categories:
regular and irregular nouns. The former simply gains an -s or -es, like books, paintings,
potatoes and glasses – that’s the easy part.
Adjective phrases in the two languages are in opposite order. In English, the adjective
comes before the noun, but in Indonesian, the noun is mentioned first: red car / mobil
merah

7. In learning the sound system of a foreign language (English) one finds sounds that are
physically similar to those of the native language, that structure similarly to them, and
that are similarly distributed. Explain the statement (idea) as well as possible. (score 15)
= One finds sounds that are physically comparable to those of the original language, that
structure similarly to them, and that similarly disseminate simple transfer without
difficulty when learning the sound system of a foreign language. \In comparison, one can
discover that the reverse is more slowly learned and difficult to convey.
