- Abstract
Sundanese language as a local language consists of the indigenous knowledge which needs to be taught from elementary school. Many factors influence the success of the teaching of this language, one of which is the Sundanese language competence and performance of the school teachers. This research investigates the language competence of elementary Sundanese language teachers. The data is the corpus of the teachers’ written production obtained from a writing test in which the teachers were asked to write down their experiences in teaching Sundanese using Sundanese language. Data analysis involved Antconc software to observe the frequency of words that the school teachers produced. The result shows that the teachers did not use varied expressions in their texts. This finding suggests the teachers need to improve their language performance to give more benefits to the students in acquiring new words as new vocabularies.
