Abstract

This study aims to analyze Indonesian errors in Indonesian speakers from Japan. This study used the descriptive qualitative method. The data analysis technique in this study was in 4 stages. The stages are included collection of a sample, identification of errors, description of errors, and explanation of errors. The data sources in this study were Indonesian speakers from Japan's videos. This research showed that Indonesian speakers from Japan made Indonesian errors at the linguistic level; the details are as follows. There were 43 phonological errors:  17 adding phonemes errors, five reduction phonemes, and 21 replacing phonemes. There were ten morphological errors. These errors were five errors of omitting prefixes, two errors of omitting suffixes, one error in the aspect of omitting confixes, and errors in using inappropriate prefixes. There were nine syntactic errors:  4 errors in unsubjected sentences, two errors using prepositions, and three incorrect sentence structure formations. These results are discussed among other results from this study.
