Abstract

This study aims to see the phonological problem deviation of English fricative and affricate sound produced by Thai and Indonesian English learners. This sound is interesting to study since the fricative and affricate sounds system among English, Thai and Indonesian are different. Moreover, some English sounds do not exist in the Thai and Indonesian language system. Respondents of this study were Thai and Indonesian students of IAIN Kediri taken purposively since this study is a case study. The result of this study shows that the deviation of fricative and affricate sounds produced by respondents really varies. This study also found that the deviation of the sound was because phonological problem encountered by respondents was a mistake, not an error. Therefore, generalizing a rule of the phonological problem is impossible to do since the deviation is overlapped and irregular.
