Description | ||||||
Error Analysis is one of the important themes in foreign language acquisition research‟s field. This study aims to analyse errors in writing assignments of 83 BA III German Specialization Students for the module GER 3102A (B1.1) and to improve students' writing skills by knowing and correcting their mistakes or errors. In this study, the most common errors found in their writing assignments and the reasons why these errors occur in the writing assignments are presented. For most of these students, Myanmar is their mother language and English is their first foreign language. Using an error classification way, 2 assignments concerning about a personal letter and an application letter by 83 students were analyzed and classified into 17 types of errors according to German Linguist Karin Kleppin. Learners' errors are firstly identified, classified and finally explained as Corder claimed. As results, 17 types of errors can be found in both assignments. Moreover, case, spelling mistakes and choice of word are the most common errors in their written works and according to the findings, students are weak in grammar e.g. in German case form and then, their carelessness and ignorance of correct spelling make them difficult in learning vocabulary. Moreover, they make the mistakes in choice of word because they are still influenced by the existence of particular system in their first foreign language English and their mother tongue Myanmar. | ||||||
