Abstract

Abstract This research is aimed at finding and describing the intonation of English declarative sentence produced by English Department students of Universitas PGRI Yogyakarta. The intonation is analyzed  based on contour approach through the movements of pitch. The researcher uses three students as his respondents. The data are analized through three steps, firstly, data are collected through listening and recording process, secondly, the recording data are converted to soundwave and pitch diagrams using PRAAT software, at this point, PRAAT text grid is applied to make the pitch diagrams easy to understand, and finally, the researcher draws conclusion according to the contour of pitch in the diagrams.  The result of this research illustrates that the respondents tend to rise the pitch at end of English declarative sentence which correspondingly changes the mood of the sentence into an interrogrative sentence. English declarative sentences generally have falling intonation and native speakers of English do not rise the pitch at the end of declarative sentences. However, this research shows that students of English have inadequate knowledge about suprasegmental features in English particularly intonation.   Keywords: intonation, declarative, sentence

Abstract

Although English students (English-L2) are allowed to retain their local accent when speaking English, they may not be intelligible if they use inappropriate stress in communication. This research is intended to find out how English-L2 produce stress in English morphological derivation words. The respondents of this study are 10 students of English Department (PBIUPY) Who are native speakers of Indonesian. PRAAT software is applied to analyse the recordings, including measuring the pitch of each word, the highest pitch indicates the primary or strongest stress in each word. The instruments of this study are 5 morphological derivation words which have different level and variation of stress. The result illustrates that English-L2 produce inappropriate stress alternation in English morphological derivation words. Most English-L2 are not able to distinguish between strong and weak stressed syllables. It is proved by the pitch which they produce have a broadly simillar pattern.

Abstract

Generally, word stress tends to be ignored and is not considered a serious problem in Indonesian EFL; most teachers only focus on lexical and grammatical aspects of English. In fact, the prosodic features existing in English greatly affect meaning. This research, therefore, is intended to find out how Indonesian Learners of English (ILE) produce the English word stress. The stressed syllables were identified by using the highest pitch in each word. This research involved 20 respondents whose mother tongue is Indonesian. PRAAT software was applied to analyze the recordings, including measuring the pitch of each word. Word stress is indicated by the highest pitch of each word. The lowest pitch indicates weak stress. The result illustrated that ILE produces inappropriate word stress in second language learning. Most of them are not able to distinguish between strong and weak stressed syllables. This is because in their native language, prosodic features, such as word stress, do not prevail. Thus, English word stress production was heavily influenced by Indonesian features of stress. From the 36 words that become the instrument of this research, less than 50% were pronounced correctly, in most cases, and the highest pitch fell on last syllables. The absence of prosodic features in Indonesian language and limited knowledge on English phonetics drive the ILE to pronunciation error.

Abstract

The role of linguistic intelligent in learning a foreign language particularly in writing skill has received increased attention across a number of disciplines in recent years. This study aims to investigate the correlation between linguistic intelligence and students' ability to write descriptive texts. This quantitative research was conducted at a vocational high school in Central Java, Indonesia in January 2022. The data was collected through a questionnaire instrument and a descriptive text writing test of 80 samples from 394 populations. The data analysis technique employed product moment and descriptive analysis using SPSS. The result of the study shows the significance value obtained from the product moment correlation = 0.528 and the significance value 0.000 < probability 0.05, which means the hypothesis (H0) was rejected and the hypothesis in this study (Ha) was accepted. Based on the statistical analysis, this study concluded that there was a correlation between students’ linguistic intelligence and the ability of writing descriptive text.
