Talking is talking is so much a part of everyday life that people take it for granted. According to Brown in Jaya Nur Iman (2016), speaking is a productive skill that can be observed directly and empirically, these observations are invariably colored by the accuracy and efficiency of a test-taker's listening skill, which necessarily compromises the reliability and validity of a oral production test. Speaking is also a multi-sensory activity because it involves paralinguistic features such as eye contact, facial expressions, body language, pace, pauses, changes in voice quality and pitch variation, which affect conversational flow (Thornbury 2005).
From the definition above, it can be concluded that speaking is expressing idea, opinion or feeling to others by using words to inform or entertain. According to Boyd in Sari (2013), speaking is an activity of presenting information from the speaker to the listener. As a skill that enables people to produce utterances when they are truly communicative, speech is lustful (and purpose-driven), for words they really want to communicate something to achieve a certain goal.
Although speaking is quite natural, speaking in a language other than our own is anything but simple. Tarigan in Shohib (2012) defines that speaking is a language skill that is developed in children's life which is preceded by listening skill and during that period speaking skill is learned.

A picture is an excellent medium in which this can be done. pictures arouse playfulness in students because pictures are interesting.
The teacher can easily find the picture, for example, in books, magazines, newspapers, etc. This means that by using the picture, the teacher can involve all the students in his class. This means that by using the picture, the teacher can easily explain the new vocabulary words to the students, which prevents misunderstandings between the students.
The function of describing a picture for learning to speak is to practice describing things and using the preposition and position yes. The positive attitude of students towards what they are learning and towards the process itself can be improved.
