Abstract
The research is an attempt to find out the common morphological and syntactical errors made by the second semester students in Writing II subject in the English Education Department of Yogyakarta State University. The research study is a case study on the production of morphological and syntactical errors in English Education Department students’ English compositions. The data are collected from 20 compositions which were written by the second semester students, who were in C class. The researcher uses writing composition as the instrument. In this case, all categories of morphological and syntactical errors types are classified and described based on the Politzer and Ramires in Dulay, Burt and Krashen on theory of Linguistic Category. Based on the result of the analysis, there are 192 errors found in the students’ writing composition. In the morphological area, there are 27 (14.06%) errors. Meanwhile, in syntax area, there are 165 (85.94%) errors. The result of the analysis shows that morphological and syntactic errors comprise big number of errors in this study and the occurrence of syntactic error is higher than the morphological one. There are two main causes of the students’ errors. They are the influence of their mother tongue and the lack of grammatical competence of the target language. The two major causes of errors result in interlingual errors and intralingual errors.
