Phonological
errors in communicating will let the listener gain a different meaning and
communication becomes impeded. The students’ errors are due to their lack of
understanding of the sound system of language, as their second-language
acquisition. The problem in this
research is what type of phonological errors are made by students when they are
listening to the short story and will impact on their speaking. The data is
conducted in the language laboratory of The National University in Jakarta by second-semester students in the subject of
Spoken English. in the Faculty of Letters, English Department. The purpose of
this research study is to learnthe
difficulties of students when learning Basic Spoken English. The method used is
descriptive with content analysis techniques. The result showed the most the biggest of surface
structure taxonomy of phonological errors created by the students when
they are listening to the short story and has impacted on speaking is global
errors in diphthong (61,29%). This is because in Indonesian there is no sound
of a diphthong. These global errors will have an effect on good communication. The
students should study the phonological system in the target language,
especially diphthong sound, in addition
to vowels and consonants. It is expected that the lecturer often guides
students’ pronunciation based on the point and
the manner of articulation and improve if they are not able to.
