Abstract

In the process of learning English as a foreign language, learners may face many difficulties and produce some errors in pronouncing consonants especially fricative sounds which occur because there are some factors affecting the learners. The aims of the research were (1) to know the students' ability in pronouncing English fricative consonants, (2) to investigate the phonological errors made by the students in pronouncing English fricative consonants, (3) to describe the most frequent phonological errors made by the students in pronouncing English fricative consonants, and (4) to figure out the causes of phonological errors made by the students in pronouncing English consonants. The subject of this research was the Tenth Grade Students of SMA Negeri 1 Tanjung Batu. The writer used descriptive qualitative method in conducting this research. In collecting the data, this research applied pronunciation tests and interviews. The data were analyzed using Error Analysis and Kenworthy's theory (1987). The writer found that the ability of the Tenth Grade Students in Pronouncing English Fricative Consonants was fair. The phonological error was the substitution and omission. The errors occurred in all kinds of fricative consonants, namely labiodental /f/ and /v/, dental /θ/ and /ð/, alveolar /s/ and /z/, palatal-alveolar /ʃ/ and/ʒ /, and glottal /h/. Each of them has the following percentage: the /f/ sound 18%, the /v/ sound 63%, the /θ/ sound 90%, the /ð/ sound 85%, the /s/ sound 13%, the /z/ sound 33%, the /ʃ/ sound 50%, the /ʒ/ sound 98%, and the /h/ sound 17%. The factors affecting the errors are the native language and the amount of exposure. Meanwhile, age and motivation and concern for good pronunciation do not significantly reflected in the result of this research.
