Considering that the difference between the correct clauses and the intended clauses was 56 or 27, 18, the difference between those two clauses was
said to be significant. In other words, although the distribution frequency of SVOA clause pattern was high, it did not mean that students were able to use this
pattern well with regard to the low frequency of the correct clauses. Therefore, students’ mastery over SVOA pattern was said to be insufficient. The Distribution
of SVOA pattern can be seen in Table 4.3.

c. Students’ Mastery over SVC Pattern
SVC pattern was in the third sequence of the basic clause patterns’ distributions. Here are the examples of the clauses which use SVC pattern.
Different from the distribution frequencies of the correct and intended clauses of SVA and SVOA pattern, SVC’s frequency of the correct clauses was bigger than
the intended one. The correct clause is in example 64, while the intended one is in example 65.
64 Her name is Clara. 65 All people very happy.
Out of the 148 or 17,92 distribution frequency of SVC pattern, the correct clauses, of which the frequency was 96 or 64,86, occurred more
frequently than the intended clauses, of which frequency was 52 or 35,13. Furthermore, the comparison of the difference, which was 44 or 29,73, was said
to be significant. Therefore, the distribution of SVC pattern showed that students’ mastery over SVC pattern was good in consideration to its significant comparison
although the distribution frequency of this pattern was in the third sequence. The distribution of SVC pattern is presented in Table 4.4.

d. Students’ Mastery over SVO Pattern
The forth distribution sequence was for SVO pattern. The distribution of this pattern was on average high with its frequency of 113 or 13,68. Within this
distribution frequency, the comparison between the correct clauses and the intended clauses was not very significant. The correct clauses’ frequency, which
was 52 or 46,02, was a bit lower than the frequency of intended clauses which was 61 or 53,98. As a result, the difference between them was not so far, that
was 9 or 7,96. The distribution of SVO pattern can be seen in Table 4.5.

Since the frequency of correct clauses and intended clauses was almost the same, it could be concluded that students’ mastery over SVO pattern was fair. In
addition, the examples of the correct and intended clause are shown in the example 66 and 67.
66 We ate opor ayam. 67 We loves the night life.
