Abstract

Simple present tense adalah basic tense yang perlu dikuasai siswa. Siswa yang berbeda memiliki berbagai tingkat kemahiran menulis dengan simple present tense. Selain itu, simple present tense digunakan dalam menulis teks deskriptif. Teks yang menjelaskan ciri-ciri orang, barang, atau lokasi tertentu disebut sebagai teks deskriptif. Dalam penelitian ini, peneliti menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dan deskriptif sebagai desain penelitian ini. Tujuan utama penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis jenis kesalahan yang dilakukan siswa, kesalahan yang paling sering dilakukan, dan sumber kesalahan dalam teks deskriptif mereka yang ditulis dalam simple present tense. Peneliti memilih siswa kelas VII SMP N 4 Lahewa Timur sebagai subjek untuk pengumpulan data, kemudian peneliti memberikan tugas kepada siswa untuk menulis teks deskriptif dalam simple present tense. Peneliti telah menggunakan klasifikasi kesalahan yang disarankan oleh Dulay, Burt, dan Krashen (1982; Ellis dan Barhuizen, 2005) untuk mengidentifikasi data untuk analisis kesalahan. Menurut temuan penelitian, kesalahan penghilangan menyumbang 31 kesalahan, atau 44,92% dari semua kesalahan analisis. Misinformasi adalah yang paling umum berikutnya, menemukan 16 kesalahan dengan tingkat akurasi 23,18%. Empat belas kesalahan peringkasan terjadi, dengan persentase penemuan data sebesar 20,28%. Kesalahan pemesanan terjadi terakhir, dengan delapan kesalahan dengan total 11,59%.
