Abstract

Language is a means of communication. With language, people can express their ideas, thoughts, and feelings. English, in this case, has become an international language that is used in many countries. In Indonesia, English is a foreign language. When learning a foreign language, people often face interference. Errors in articles are quiet regularly made. Review, one of the genres in writing, has been taught in senior high school.One of the significant lexicogrammatical features of review writings is the use of articles. Therefore, the writer would like to find out the students’ learning problems of articles in review writings and kinds of error that they make. This study is descriptive in native. The data used in this study are articles and error analysis; the types of error on the use of articles, the types of articles on which the errors occurred, and the sources of the errors.
