Abstract

When Indonesian students learn the Chinese language, they could possibly make errors in using conjunctions. This paper discusses the types of errors made by Indonesian students in learning the Chinese language. Above is my analysis result in Conjunction Application Errors in the Chinese Language for Indonesian Students. From the quantitative result, we can conclude that there are errors in the understanding of Conjunction Application for Indonesian students. While using single conjunction word in a sentence we found that there are 22% of errors; the rate of errors in using the word "so" is 70.6%, and the rate of error in using fixed causal conjunction "because ... ... so ... ..." is 14% which is the lowest; On the contrary in the use of "because ... ... so ... ..." and "because ... ... and ..." the error rate is as high as 76%. All in all, the average error rate of Indonesian students using single causal conjunctions is as high as 41.41%. The average error rate of causal conjunctions with fixed collocation is as high as 56.39%. Thus, causal conjunctions are difficult for Indonesian students to master, in the course of the usage, inevitably there will be errors.
