CHAPTER V CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTION
A. Conclusion
In relation to the findings of the this study on the students’ ability of using
idiomatic expression in speaking skill at SMP Negeri 87 Jakarta conclusion might be drawn as follows:
1. Three 3 students or 8.83 of thirty-six students are on the lowest list of
respondents with both the learning of basic two-word idiomatic expressions and speech. They have to be trained more. They have to
practice much more with their peers or their English teachers and use the basic two-word idiomatic expressions they already used. Hopefully, as
the saying goes ―practice makes perfect‖. These students can also be said to be able to speak fairly good, i.e.
in this case a skill to speak English in an accepted and casual manner. In other words, they can use, to a certain degree, some basic two-word
idiomatic expressions in their speech. Accordingly, they can also speak in an accepted and casual manner to a certain degree too.
2. Twenty-eight 28 students or 77.77 out of 36 students speak English in
a more casual manner. They master more about the basic two-word idiomatic expressions, hence they speak better and easily.
Therefore, the respondents with this achievement should and have to upgrade their knowledge over and over. This is the first grade in junior
secondary school, which there is a lot of time and long duration for them to go. In other words, they still have ample time to upgrade themselves so
that they can keep up their achivement and reach the best one. 3.
Eleven 11 students or 13.88 out of 36 students speak in a more natural way, and verbal communication is at ease with him. What they
have master the basic skill how have an informal way of speaking. It seems their mastery comes to be their navigator in their speech.
These students should still and have to improve their productive skills, i.e both sentences and speech besides maintaining what they have
learned. This is because they cannot solely rely on what they have learned only right here and right now.
This respondents need to maintain their skill and keep learning more and more on further and higher idiomatic expressions and also other
aspects of English language, since there are too many other things every English learner need to learn, if they want to be fluent in English.
These respondents is a good model for others to copy and follow. They learn basic two-word idiomatic expressions perfectly and speaks
natural English. This is an indicator that mastering the basic two-word idiomatic expressions influence her speaking, both fluently and naturally.
Their fluency is the one that should then be upgraded, for fluency is one the most significant parts in communication.
4. Last but not least, the general result is not that bad. The lowest score is
fair, which indicates that the gap of the respondents is still small. In other words, the average knowledge of the respondents about the basic two-
word idiomatic expressions is still fairly good.
