Abstract

Studies on grammar teaching suggested that grammar is one of the most challenging language aspects. Foreign language learners are said to have a lot of difficulties in learning and applying grammar rules. Indonesian students, unlike many other foreign language learners, encounter similar difficulties in applying English grammar rules. In this study, the writer would like to focus on the cognition of conjugation because there has been lack of studies about students’ cognition of conjugation. This study was aimed at examining students’ understanding of conjugation and their ability in applying conjugated verbs in daily use. More specifically, this study intended to The purposes of this study were to investigate the Faculty of Language and Arts’ students’ cognition of conjugation, to discover whether the students who know conjugation very well can apply the conjugation or not, and to see differences between the students’ cognition of conjugation and its application. The purposes of this study were to investigate the Faculty of Language and Arts’ students’ cognition of conjugation, to discover whether the students who know conjugation very well can apply the conjugation or not, and to see differences between the students’ cognition of conjugation and its application. is study is a quantitative study. The data collected through the pretest (the knowledge of conjugated words) and the post-test (the application of conjugated verbs). Based on the analysis, the results from conducting 2 tests showed that there was significant difference between the first and the second tests. The results of the first test did not affect the results of the second test. This can be concluded that the students who knew conjugation well do not necessarily mean they were also able to apply the conjugation in a context. Most participants were unable to conjugate when the sentence was a complex sentence, a compound sentence, and a sentence that contains a subject-verb agreement sentence.
