Abstract

This study explores Indonesian Sentence Construction Errors for students of the Universitas Nasional Jakarta (UNAS) from the aspect of syntactic level analysis. This study uses a descriptive qualitative method to describe the linguistic facts contained in the data. The analysis was carried out by using Dubois’ theory which describes the elements and intricacies of word structure or the internal structure of words, syntax studies the relationship between one word and other words in forming a larger structure, namely phrases, clauses, and sentences. Research objectives are formulated; 1) to detect the form of errors in Indonesian sentences written by Unas Jakarta students, and 2) to describe the construction aspects of phrases, clauses and sentences at the syntactic level. The results of this study indicate that errors in Indonesian sentence construction at the syntactical level based on the tracking data are clearly visible in the form of phrases, clauses and sentences. This is because students are less aware of sentence construction according to standard Indonesian language rules. The benefits of this research can be used as a basic reference material in research on sentence construction in a wider range of data.
