The Impact of Listening Phonological Errors on Speaking : A Case Study on English Education

Abstract

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.
