Indonesian phonological errors by South Korean youtube influencers
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study examines phonological errors made by South Korean speakers when speaking Indonesian as a foreign language. This study uses qualitative methods. Data were collected using the listening and recording method, and analyzed using the language error analysis technique proposed by Ellis. From this study, it was found that the most common pronunciation errors in Indonesian spoken by South Korean speakers were the addition of phonemes [ə], [e], [h], and [y], the reduction of phonemes [t], [h], [r], the change of phoneme sound [ə] to phoneme [e], the change of phoneme sound [r] to phoneme [l] or vice versa, the change of phoneme sound [u] to [o] or vice versa, and [e] to [i] or vice versa. This study contributes to interlanguage phonology by offering specific insights into how Korean phonological features impact Indonesian acquisition, with implications for improving Indonesian language teaching for foreign speakers, particularly in BIPA programs.
