In analyzing the data, error analysis was used in which there were four steps: transcribing the students’ pronunciation into the phonetic transcriptions, grouping the students’ errors in pronouncing English vowels into separate divisions, employing the percentage descriptive analysis to count all error and interpreting the result of the data analysis
Finally, the result of the analysis shows that students are considered “Excellent” in pronouncing English vowels. The total percentage of various errors in pronouncing English vowels is 23.33%. There are five types of dominant errors. There are vowel [i:] (5.31%), vowel [æ] (6.22%), vowel [a:] (6.67%), vowel [ :] (6.67%), and vowel [ ] (0.76%).
To help the students improve their pronunciation proficiency, the writer suggests that they should be given a lot of drills and practices relating to the pronunciation so that they can acquire the habit of using the correct pronunciation of English words containing English vowels correctly regardless of language skills they are dealing with. judul skripsi bahasa inggris
