Indonesian is very important in everyday life because it is the official language of the country and the main language for communication. Language errors still often occur, both orally and in writing. In this article, we will see how semantic and syntactic rules are used in Indonesian. It also covers some common mistakes that often occur, such as incorrect sentence structure, unclear meaning, and the use of words that are not in context. This article not only provides examples and analyzes errors, but also discusses the factors that cause these errors. Failure to understand sentence structure, the influence of regional languages, and the habit of using non-standard language on social media are examples of factors that cause these errors. The purpose of writing this article is to raise awareness of good and correct language, especially among students and prospective educators. With a better understanding of syntax and semantics, readers are expected to be more careful in constructing sentences and choosing the right words, so that communication becomes clearer and more effective. Good language shows talent and patriotism.    

This study aims to analyze the errors in word usage in the children’s fabels “Seekor Kancil yang Selalu Ingat Tuhan” by Atisah, with a focus on how these errors impact the educational value of the story. The fabels, intended for elementary school readers, carries significant moral lessons but presents linguistic challenges due to certain errors in vocabulary, grammar, and sentence structure. These errors include the use of technical terms, uncommon words, and overly formal expressions that may hinder comprehension for young readers. Using a descriptive quantitative method, the research collects data through documentation and error classification based on linguistic theories in morphology, syntax, and semantics. The findings reveal that while the fabels employs imaginative storytelling to convey moral lessons, some linguistic inconsistencies, such as redundant phrases, inappropriate vocabulary, and lack of contextual explanations, reduce its effectiveness. Recommendations include simplifying language, ensuring alignment with children’s cognitive levels, and providing contextual definitions for complex terms. These efforts aim to enhance the readability and educational value of children’s literature while fostering linguistic development.

The background of this research is students’ mistakes in writing review texts based on linguistic level studies. This research analyzes the fields of phonology, morphology, semantics and syntax in the review text of the film entitled Alive. This research aims to obtain results of language analysis errors in grade 8 students at Shuffah Al-Jamaah Tasikmalaya Middle School. The research method uses analytical descriptive research. The sample selection method in this study used a simple random sampling method. The data collection method used is (1) accumulating the results of students’ review texts at school as a data source, (2) reading carefully all data sources, (3) marking and assigning classification codes to the data, (4) classifying data based on the form of error. Language use, (5) presenting and describing data based on forms of language use errors. The instrument used is data analysis. Based on the results of data analysis, the most dominant errors that emerged were errors in the field of phonology, namely the omission of phonemes. Apart from that, it is also often found in the field of morphology regarding reduplication, namely the use of the word repeat with a square sign. The deletion of phonemes and incorrect reduplication of writing occurs, which is done by students to shorten the writing of a word so that the writing process can be completed more quickly without paying attention to good and correct linguistic rules. Students need to concentrate and be more careful in the process of writing activities. Apart from that, teachers also need to provide direction in the form of knowledge and insight regarding the basics of good and correct linguistics to minimize the occurrence of language mistakes and mistakes.
