This is the reason why our government points out that English is the main subject in our education system. Errors are not only caused by differences between two languages, but also by the complex system of the target language itself. Just as Carder states that "Errors are significant in three ways, (1) they tell the teacher how far the learner has gone, (2) they provide the researcher with evidence of how language is learned, (3) they serve as feedback to the teacher of the hypothesis they use.
This is because the grammar of the language requires that the verb and its subject agree in person. In this case, parents consider the error to be something natural, although it is considered something that must appear in the development of children. The scope of problems is an analysis of coherent error in composition by second year MA student Al-Mawaddah.
An error is a noticeable deviation from the native speaker's adult grammar that reflects the students' interlinguistic ability. On the other hand, the result of retardation is hesitation in the language, random ungrammatical, in another, which appear in speech.
Person
Number
In languages in which grammatical gender plays a significant role, there is often agreement in gender between a noun and its modifiers. In the case of verbs, gender agreement is less common, although it can still occur. For example, in the French compound past tense, the past participle agrees with the subject or with an object in certain circumstances (see passé composé for details).
In Russian and most other Slavic languages, the form of the past tense in gender corresponds to the. A distinction of form in a verb to express distinctions of time or duration of the action or state it indicates .. a: a set of inflectional forms of a verb expressing distinctions of time b: an inflectional form of ' a verb that expresses a specific time. distinction Examples of Time. This means that in the learning process, a learner tends to make mistakes, but he has to overcome them.
The Source of Error
This kind of error arises from the interference of the learner's native language or the other language he has learned. To gain more clarity, the causes of the language and development error are discussed. Ignorance of a rule constraint is the learner's type of generalization when using a previously acquired rule in a new situation.17.
In this case, analogy and role learning may be the common sources of the rule restriction type errors. In the two sentences, he makes the mistakes about the use of preposition to and about. In the two sentences, the errors are some from the use of the object him and it.
The errors may be caused by ignorance of the object's rule constraints. In the first sentence, he does not use the question word (what) and the auxiliary word (do). In the second sentence he does not use an auxiliary (did).. a) Which films do you like, tragedy or comedy?.
They just continue the end of the teacher's question without following the rules. However, the writer in this study will only observe written data in the form of English composition. In the last case, the errors refer to the students' mistake in using agreement, namely the agreement of person, number, gender and tense.
This method is used to analyze quantitative data, namely to calculate the frequency of the concord error and the percentage of each component.
Concord An Agreement
In the first and second person singular, and in all persons of have: (I, you, we) have. It refers forward in sentences beginning with it is or it was to make a part of it more prominent or emphatic. In a descriptive sentence and in a sentence with a deictic pronoun (to name something for the first time or demonstrative pronoun), both the subject pronoun and the verb agree in number with the normal predicate.
This rule is not limited in English, where we often find a plural subject with a singular verb, or a singular verb with a plural subject. a) Plural nouns with a singular predicative verb. Eg: Governments are determined to resist aggression. e) The collective nouns: cattle, clergy, police, almost always take a verb in the plural. Between a noun or pronoun denoting persons or animals and another noun denoting something belonging to them.
It occurs between a noun or pronoun and of pronouns in the third person singular. Gender is mainly a matter of the choice of one; of the three personal (or possessive) pronouns in the third person singular refer to an antecedent noun (referring to gender). So it is hardly possible to say whether such a noun is masculine, feminine or neuter.
It usually occurs between the finite verb in the main clause and that in the object clause of a compound sentence reporting a statement or question (indirect style). The adjustment that occurs when a statement is generally converted from direct to indirect style, the same as in other languages.
Writing
The Nature Of Writing
In the modern world, written language serves a number of functions in everyday life, including the following:.
The Teaching of Writing
Writing has evolved in society as a result of cultural changes that create communicative needs that cannot be readily met by spoken language. It can thus be concluded that writing must be taught systematically, and the linguistic aspects must be included functionally.
Writing Assessment
Screening and Identification: to identify students who are eligible for special language and/or content support programs. Placement: to determine students' language skills and content area competencies in order to recommend an appropriate educational program. Reclassification or exit: to determine whether a student has achieved the language skills and content necessary to benefit from classroom instruction (ie from all English programs).

RESEARCH METHOD
- Research Design
- Subject of The Study 1. Sample
- Instrumentation
- Data Collection
- Data Analysis
- General Data
There are four categories of concord error that will be analyzed in this research, namely error in agreement of person, agreement of number, agreement of gender and agreement of person. Sutrisno declares that sample atau contoh sebagai individu yang diteliti dari omengama individu peresinikan.30 (Sample is a part of individual that's researched from the whole of individual of the research). The sample of the research is the second year student of MA Al-Mawaddah in academic 2013/2014.
Choosing an appropriate one in a study is an important issue and using one of them depended on the purpose, characteristics and importance of the study. In this study, the researcher used an unstructured interview so that students are not nervous when answering the question. Besides interviewing the students, the researcher also interviews the English teacher. if the second students of MA Al-Mawaddah The researcher asks about the learning process of the teacher, the active students in the class and the passive students in the class, etc.
In this study, the researcher uses documentation to obtain the data of MA Al-Mawaddah. The researcher in this research used documentation is to get the outline of MA Al-Mawaddah, the amounts and the name of the students of the second year students of MA Al-Mawaddah in academics. Pesantren Al-Mawaddah daughter is a special Islamic educational institution established to educate young women on the 9th of Dhul-Qo'dah 1409 H / October 21, 1989 as the realization of the ideas and ideals of the past.
Pesantren al-Mawaddah is the realization of an idea of a character education and struggle (KH. Ahmad Sahal) in the education and promotion of women. This is one system that differentiates between Princess Pesantren al-Mawaddah with Pondok Modern roommate that is purely private (roommate Plus). The respondents of the research are fifteen students of the second year of MA Al-Mawaddah in the academic year 2013/2014.
NR = Number of Respondents A = Person Matching B = Number Matching C = Gender Matching D = Time Matching. It can be known that the number of errors in the use of the person concord is 36 (it is 35, 5% of all errors). Cn : Number Matching Cp : Person Matching Ct : Tense Matching Cg : Gender Matching.
CLOSING
Conclusion
The total errors on the use of agreement of gender is 4, 9% of all errors. The total errors on the use of concord of time is 17, 64% of the entire errors. From the list above it can be deduced that the errors on the use of concord of number have the highest percentage which is 42, 16%.
Suggestions
In addition, the teacher and people involved in teaching the learning process try to find an alternative method to improve the students' knowledge of knowledge to apply concordance, especially in making a good composition. Based on the data analysis and conclusion of this study, the following suggestions are made regarding the study of concord error. The teacher should pay attention to the concordance part that the students have not mastered.
When teaching errors, the teacher should pay attention to the subject, especially the agreement of the number, because most of the agreement errors made by the students are the agreement of the number. The teacher should give more insight into the agreement error in teaching composition, give more explanation for the agreement of the number, and give more motivation and practice to the students, so that they will be more motivated to study hard and more to practice. It is important that the students pay attention to the part of the concordance that they do not understand.
