Abstract

Language is a very essential in human life, moreover English as foreign language. Since English language is used almost all countries around the world as the international language. However, people often get difficulties in practicing it and producing some errors. The most common speech error is slips of the tongue. Therefore, this research aimed to analyse and observe the types of slips of the tongue and the possible condition which caused the international students produce slips of the tongue in their oral presentations at Universitas Islam Negeri Maulana Malik Ibrahim Malang. Thus, if second language learners know about slips of the tongue, they will avoid to produce the same errors on slips of the tongue. The researchers used descriptive qualitative approach since the data were derived from speakers’ utterances which were transcribed. This research applied the theories proposed by Fromkin about eight types of slips of the tongue, and Clark and Clark about the factors which influenced the slips of the tongue. The result showed that there were 127 slips of the tongue found in international students’ utterances. The researchers found the fact that the typology of slips of the tongue mostly produced by Africa speakers was substitutions which occurred 30 times in total, while the typology of slips of the tongue mostly produced by Asia speakers was deletions which occurred 27 times in total. Furthermore, the most possible condition which might influence slips of the tongue in international students’ utterances was situational anxiety. Due to the fact that they felt tired because of their activities and assignments. Thus, it might influence them to produce slips of the tongue when they did the oral presentations.
