<p class="Abstract">Writing is a proficiency which is very difficult and complex. This is&nbsp;<span style="font-size: 1rem;">because the learner needs many aspects to master, such as lexical&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">aspect, grammatical aspect, the ability to present facts and express&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">their thoughts, etc. According to the results of the final review of the&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">4th semester students, we found that students have encountered a lot&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">of grammatical errors in the course of writing. As a result, we search&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">for analysis to identify this problem and find solutions. Therefore, the&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">problem proposed in this research is: 1) what type of error is often&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">done by students in the course of writing? (2) What is the grammatical&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">error which is found a lot depending on the result type? (3) What are&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">the solutions to solve them? In order to find answers to this problem,</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">we did a descriptive qualitative research with qualitative method by analyzing of the errors. We found&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">that: 1) the dominant type of error is the grammatical error, 2) the most significant type of grammatical&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">error is the error of the adjective. So, in order to solve the problems, students must have a good&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">grammatical skill in the first half; we have to make the students know their grammatical errors even if it’s&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">very simple, give more exercises in the students so that they are used to write correctly</span></p>

This research aims to determine the types of grammatical errors that students make the most and least frequently, as well as the causes of those errors, using the Surface Strategy Taxonomy that was identified in students' recount text translation. The participants in this study were SMAN 1 Pringsewu first-graders in the academic year 2020/2021. This research adopted a descriptive qualitative method by using a translation task and questionnaire for the instruments. According to the Surface Strategy Taxonomy, the students made all types of errors: omission, addition, misformation, and misordering. In recount text translation based on Surface Strategy Taxonomy, the most common error made by students was misformation, whereas the least frequent error type was misordering. Problems with the target language, mother-tongue interference, a lack of eagerness to learn the target language, a lack of confidence, and the absence of error feedback from the teacher were all possible causes of those errors. This indicates that the students’ English grammar understanding was still limited. Therefore, the English teacher is expected to solve it by providing appropriate teaching methods and materials to reduce errors.
