Abstract

During language acquisition process, the learner will do try and error of the learning language. In Japanese class at the elementary level; the first-year student at first semester, they learned vocabularies, hiragana, katakana, and sentence patterns. For six months they learned and absorbed Japanese language skill; as language acquisition process. The next semester (a first-year student at second semester), they will try to use the Japanese Language (which they are learning before) by produce the utterance, make sentences, and write a simple essay. Writing class at the elementary level in Japanese call Sakubun Shokyu. When examining the student writing, I found the interesting Japanese language usage of the numeral quantifier. By using an error analysis, the results show if the students commonly using ungrammatical pattern. The reason they did, because of Indonesian language interference, and the lack of Japanese sentence pattern at the learning process. This paper will describe the usage of Japanese numeral quantifier by the students. This research using the qualitative method. The error analysis not explained about the fallacy language usage, but this analysis will describe grammatical and ungrammatical of language usage. This analysis can become a self-evaluation, or suggestion for the lecturer to evaluate the language learning in class.
