Based on the table 4.3 above, the most errors occurred in number 6 with 26 students made errors in that number. First , student committed errors in irregular
verb, such as Amran has singed wonderful song for his mother in mother’s day
since yesterday Romina has bringed a new book in the school since yesterday Annisa has buyed new flower for her garden for one hour.
The student put –ed in the end of the words without considering the rules
in changing to irregular form; it means that the student overgeneralization in forming plural noun with adding
–ed. For [sing], the verb irregular must be
changed [sung]. The words sing, bring and buy are irregular verb. In present
perfect and present perfect continuous tense, the verb must be changed into past participle verb. For irregular verb has its own rule for being changed into past
participle verb. It might happen because the students did not know the rules in changing
to irregular verb, so they just added –ed make irregular verb the irregular form of
sing should be sung, not singed
