This study is to determine the similarities and differences aspects of
syntax between Malay language as the first language and Thai
language as a foreign language among students of public higher
educational institutions in Malaysia. Both of the aspects are among
the factors that influence the process of learning Thai language
among students. Students always make mistakes and errors in the
oral and verbal activities in the class. Therefore, the objectives of the
study are to identify the similarities and differences in the aspects of
syntax for both the Thai and Malay language and to identify the types and causes of the errors and mistakes in learning Thai language
among students of University Putra Malaysia (UPM) and University
Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM). To achieve these objectives the
researcher uses contrastive analysis and error analysis theory.
Sample consists of 100 UPM students and 82 students from UKM
learning Thai language from basic to advanced level in both
universities. Findings of the study indicate that 97.1% of the
respondents made mistakes due to the differences found in both Thai
and Malay sentence structures. In addition, it is also discovered that
the students made mistake in the Thai language learning due to
influence of L1 system. Therefore, the researcher forwards a few
approaches and suggestions in the teaching and learning of Thai as a
foreign language in Malaysia. |
