This was evidenced by the data that has been analyzed that the percentage of students who categorized words into the correct part of speech only reached an average of 40%. Besides, the results of multiple choices showed that the most comprehended part of speech was pronoun. It was around 21.6% - 22.7% of the errors found in the students‘ answers and the least comprehended part of speech was adverb and preposition that reached the correct answer around 25.8 %– 29.9%. Thus, it was suggested that the students should learn more about parts of speech. The lecturer must pair the topics taught in class with part of speech so that students became familiar with it and can ultimately differentiate.
