A contrastive analysis study on the influence of first language (L1) in writing English essays among form two secondary school students
description <p>This study aims to investigate the interference of L1 in the writing of L2 tenses with</p><p>specific reference to the interference of Bahasa Melayu (L1) in English (L2).</p><p>Furthermore, this study is also influenced either positively or negatively, by the first</p><p>language. This study also seeks to identify ways to minimize the influence of L1</p><p>(Bahasa Melayu) into L2 (English) tenses writing. This is a qualitative case study. The</p><p>data collection instruments were document analysis and interview. The data was</p><p>analysed using content analysis. Total of 69 essays with the title my family, my holidays</p><p>and If I were a millionaire respectively were analysed from 23 students in terms of</p><p>grammatical errors especially in the usage of simple present tense, simple past tense,</p><p>and simple future tense. From the findings, it was found that first language highly</p><p>interferes in students writing in simple present tense, and simple past tense. It is found</p><p>that students committed more than two errors which were 82.7% in using present simple</p><p>tense, 69.6% for simple past tense, and 30.3% for simple future tense. In fact, the</p><p>teachers who were interviewed suggested that the government should revert to the</p><p>previous curriculum, which focused on grammar drills and using grammar translation</p><p>method. In addition, there are a few methods recommended by the students were</p><p>cognitive in nature in improving their tenses using reading, writing and listening skills.</p><p>For instance, reading novels and listening to songs. The study has come to conclude</p><p>that there is a considerable influence of first language in the writing of English language</p><p>among the students. The implication of this study suggested that teachers can</p><p>implement new ways to improve students writing skills in term of correct usage of</p><p>grammar. However, additional research should be conducted on other skills especially</p><p>speaking skills.</p>
