Mastering idiomatic expression is the ability of students to comprehend the element of


idiomatic expression and have good accuracy of idiom comprehension increases during
childhood and adolescence and improves in adulthood. Reading comprehension is a skill to
get specific information from the text. This research aimed to find out
the correlation between students’ mastery of idiomatic expression and their reading
comprehension in the second semester of the tenth grade of SMAN 1 Way Pengubuan in the
academic year 2023/2024. The design of this research was Correlational Research. The
population of the research was the second Semester students at tenth grade which consisted of
128 students in four classes. The sample of this research was 64 students. The technique for
taking the sample used in this research was Cluster Random Sampling and the data were
collected by the test of idiomatic expression and reading comprehension which consisted of 20
item for idiomatic expression and 20 items for reading comprehension after the validity of item
[Link] researcher used SPSS 25.0 to analyze the data. Based on the data analysis, it was
found that there was high correlation between the students’ idiomatic expression and the
students’ reading comprehension at the tenth grade of SMAN 1 Way Pengubuan in academic
year 2023/2024. The reason for high correlation because the result of computation by using
SPSS obtained 0.986 and it was on high criteria. Based on this result it could be concluded that

CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION

A. Title Confirmation
Firstly, to understand the research title and avoid misunderstanding, the researcher explained the
research title. This research was entitled “The correlation between students’ mastery of idiomatic
expression and their reading comprehension in the second semester at the tenth grade of SMAN 1 Way
Pengubuan in the academic year 2023/2024”. For the description, some terminology was contained in
the research title.
1. Correlation
Correlation measures the strength of a relationship between two or more variables.0 The
correlation in this research refered to the measure between students of idiomatic expression and
their reading comprehension achievement.
2. Mastering Idiomatic Expression
Mastering idiomatic expression is the ability of students to comprehend the element of
idiomatic expression and have good accuracy of idiom comprehension increases during
childhood and adolescence and improves in adulthood.0 This research focused on measuring
students mastering idiomatic expression in recount text by students tenth-grade. Idiomatic
expression is indispensable to the daily speech of the people and to the language of newspaper
and books, televisions and movies.
3. Achievement
Achievement is the result of what an individual has learned from some educational
experience.0 In this research achievement refers to student’s achievement in reading
comprension.
4. Reading Comprehension
Reading comprehension is the reader's ability to comprehend the text they read. The reader
needs a lot of effort to understand the text because everyone has different background
knowledge. There are some people would have a piece of broader background knowledge,
while others do not.0
Based on the description of the title confirmations above, this research focused on
The Correlation between students’ mastery of Idiomatic Expression and Their Reading
Comprehension in the second Semester of The tenth Grade of SMAN 1 Way Pengubuan In the
Academic Year 2023/2024.

B. Background of the Problem


In reading comprehensively, especially in recount text, some idiomatic expressions are still
difficult to understand. Some sentences that are often found in reading make it difficult for students to
understand the text. The use of idiomatic expression in any kind of material often requires Indonesian
students are difficult to find out and translate idiomatic expression from their language into English
and vice versa. The idioms can be found in all languages. There are large number of idioms, and they
are used very commonly in all languages, especially in recount text. Idioms are the building blocks of
a language and civilization that provide exciting insights into the use of words, languages, and

speakers’ thought processes. It is estimated that there are at least 25,000 idiomatic expressions in the
English language.0
Mainly the students are challenged and make a wrong in interpreting the idiom, so what
makes the idiom difficult? The answer is its meaning. Idioms are not easy to understand, especially
for non-native speakers, because their meanings are usually metaphorical. This idiom characteristic
makes English learners strange and difficult to understand. English Second Language learners will
need to familiarize themselves with the meaning and usage of each idiom. Using common idioms and
expressions will make English Second Language learners sound more native. Thus, it is a good idea
to master some of these expressions. Idioms comprehension is particularly challenging for students
whose first language is not English. L2 idioms proficiency presents a distinctive challenge because
idiomatic expressions comprise stereotyped structures with conventionalized meanings, allowing only
limited usage variability.0
The frequent occurrence of idioms in everyday language has made the comprehension of
idioms for English Second Language students essential. Idioms come up in written and verbal forms.
Thus, idioms have an important pragmatic function in the language because learning a language is not
simply developing a linguistic system and familiarizing it with the meaning of each word. According
to Gass and Selinker, the significance of idioms, considering that nonnative speakers are included to
find lexical errors more unsettling than grammatical errors when communicating with a native
speaker.0 This would be possible if there were an awareness of the processes and the factors involved
in comprehending idioms. Such awareness can help language teachers, language practitioners, and
material developers in decision-making, which would, in turn, lead to the development of a better
curriculum.
The English language is full of idioms and other figurative aspects. Therefore, mastery of
English idioms enables students to learn the English language quickly. Understanding the lexicon of
English demands more than just knowing the denotative meaning of words. It also requires its reader
to understand the connotative word and, more importantly, figurative language, especially in reading
recount text. According to Nippold Idiomatic expression is a language style that native speakers of
English usually use to communicate naturally. It is a kind of expression that cannot be understood
from the literal meanings of the words of which they are composed. 0 An idiom is a group of words in
a fixed order with a particular meaning that differs from the meanings of each word understood on its
own. Considering that importance, the researcher assumed that students must learn idiomatic
expressions. However, the problem is that it is not easy to make English as foreign language learners
understand and comprehend the text by using an idiomatic expression in recount text.
Reading is one of receptive skills. A receptive skill is a passive skill. Meanwhile, reading is
not totally passive, because reading requires a reader to receive the messages, process in the brain,
and make understanding on what has been delivered by a researcher. This skill is not easy because it
requires many knowledge and comprehension. If the reader fails to comprehend the message, she or
he also fails in reading.0Reading, arguably the most essential skill for success in all educational

contexts, remains a skill of paramount importance as we create assessments of general language


ability.0
The students face several problems in mastering idiomatic expressions, especially in recount
text. Usually, the students appear to misunderstand reading recount text; they interpret the meaning of
idioms by translating word by word that had a different meaning from the actual meaning of words.
For example, keep in touch, hang out, down to each, Etc. This misunderstanding can bother their
reading comprehension because complete comprehension can be reached when the students know and
understand the meaning of sentences constructed from some words, including idioms.
Moreover, this case may happen when the students are not aware of the idioms that they read
in the text. This emphasizes that idioms need a note in reading because it also influences reading
comprehension. The genre was used to refer to particular text types, not traditional literature varieties.
It is a type or kind of text defined in terms of its social purposes0
Haris in LidyaCasteliana argues that approximately 6.7% of sentences in reading materials
use idioms.0An idiomatic expression is one of language aspects in learning English. Sridhar and
Karunakaran state that idiom is “a group of two or more wordswhich are chosen together in order to
produce a specific meaning or effect in speech or writing”. 0 In other words, an idiom is an expression,
which is a term or a phrase whose meaning cannot be deduced from the literal definitions and the
arrangement of its parts, but refers instead to a figurative meaning that is known only through
common use. To understand idioms is difficult because the words in idioms cannot be figured out
from the individual words. So, to avoid mistakes and understand the reading well, a reader should be
able to develop his or her knowledge of idiomatic expression.
They are based on the pre-research at SMAN 1Way Pengubuan by interviewing the students of
eleven grade and English teacher Mrs. Maria, [Link] she was given augmented about students'
problems in understanding the sentence or text that consisted of idioms. They often do idiom
misunderstanding reading materials. They interpret the meaning of idioms by translating word by
word that has a different meaning from the actual meaning of words. This misunderstanding can
bother their reading comprehension because complete comprehension can be reached when the
students know and understand the meaning of sentences constructed from some words, including
idioms.

There was the score of students reading comprehension in the mean score description on the
below:

Table 1.1

The Totals The Mean

3 XC 33 51.45
4 XD 35 40.24
Total 138
Sources: Documentation of English teacher at SMAN 1 Pengubuaan

Based on the table of mean score students reading Comprehension it can be seen from the 128
students they were got the mean score in lower of standar competences as follows 70, it can be seen
that the students reading comprehension are still lower. Moreover, this case may happen when the
students are not aware of the idioms that they read in the text. This emphasizes that idioms must be
noted in reading because it also influences reading comprehension. The result of the students
interviewed is that they mostly cannot understand the reading text because it is difficult for them to
know the meaning of each word, and lack of vocabulary is the problem. On another side, they usually
know the meaning but cannot know the true meaning of each sentence in the text.
As Maria defined, students mastering idiomatic expression is one of the factors affecting for
students reading comprehension achievement because, if idiom comprehension is related to general
abilities in processing linguistic information, skilled text comprehends should also be better at
comprehensive and idiomatic expression than children with poorer text comprehension skills. In other
words, a child's comprehension skills should be strongly related to the students’ reading ability. 0 It
means the idiom mastery must be directly proportional to the aim of reading comprehension. It can be
said that students who master idioms well get better in reading comprehension.
In this research, the researcher chose recount text because this text usually written in informal
sentence, so that it is indicated that there must be idiom contained in recount text. Idiomatic
expressions are basically phrases where the meaning of the entire phrase does not necessarily
perfectly match the meanings of the words that make up the phrase. 0 Then, recount text is a text that
talks about daily story that had happened. The writer of recount text was probably writing the text
with some idioms. Students could learn informal sentence in form of idiom from recount text.
Therefore, recount text was match for the case of finding correlation between idiomatic expression
and reading comprehension.
Based on the phenomenon this research conducted with the titled “The Correlation between
Students’ Mastery of Idiomatic Expression and their Reading Comprehension at the second Semester
of the Tenth Grade at SMAN 1 Way Pengubuan in the Academic Year 2023/2024”

C. Identification and Limitation of the Problem


Based on the background of the problem, this research identified the problem as follows :
1. Idiomatic expression is difficult for EFL students
2. Students mostly feel difficult to understand the specific meaning of the text
3. Students mostly have difficulty interpreting the meaning of an idiomatic expression
4. Students still challenging to understanding idiomatic expression in recount text
Based on the identification of the problem, this research limited the problem to know the
correlation between students’ idiomatic expression in understanding the idiomatic in the text and their
reading comprehension in recount text of the tenth grade at SMAN 1 Way Pengubuan in the academic
year 2023/2024.

D. Formulation of the Problem


Based on the limitation of the researcher formulated the problem in this research as follows:
1. Is there any correlation between students’ idiomatic expression and their reading comprehension
of the tenth grade at SMAN 1 Way Pengubuan in the academic year of 2023/2024?

E. Objective of The Research


The purpose of the research was to find out the correlation between students’ idiomatic expression and
their reading comprehension of the tenth grade at SMAN 1 Way Pengubuan in the academic year of
2023/2024.

F. Significance of the Research


This research is expected can give contributions to:
1. English language Teachers
This research can contribute to teachers who are still tricky and have trouble teaching
reading comprehension, especially in report text that can be used to measure students idiomatic
mastery and the need to improve their skills in the classroom..
2. Future English Teachers
This research consisted of a correlation between students’ idiomatic mastery and reading
comprehension. The researcher expects that the future English teacher can learn more about the
aspect of reading comprehension skills and other skills of English because it can help them teach
and prepare English classrooms in good condition.
3. Future Researchers
This research hopes that this research can inspire and motivate the future researcher who
have desire to conduct researchers on the same topic or make another innovation based on
research.

G. Relevant Research
1. The first relevant research by Cain, Oakhill and Lemmon investigated “The Relation between
Children reading comprehension level and their comprehension of idioms there were 56 idioms
used in this study namenly, 14 for each type namely” transparent, real opaque, novel transparen,
t and novel opaque, the participants were 28 causian children from urban schools, and the
majority of them were from lower middle-class families. The children were tested individually.
The findings revealed that children were slightly more likely to recognize more likely to be
interpected nire correctly than the novel expressions. 0

2. Another study about the Advantages and importance of learning and using idioms in English by
Eliana Edith the purpose to share the results of a small-scale project based on guding students in
the use of idioms through dialogues and readings. In otder to improve students speaking skills.
The project was applied and the data findings demonstrated that by learning a dusing some
idioms, the learners were abel to increase their knowledge about idioms. They learned new
vocabulary, and improve their communication skills. 0
3. The third relevant research by Nasution entitled “The Correlation between students mastering of
idiomatic and their reading comprehension achievement” this study used correlation research
design in quantitative tu measure the correlate between two variables. The instrument used were
observation and documentation to collected the data. Based on the research finding the result
there is positive correlation between the student’s idiomatic mastery and their reading
achievement. 0
4. The next previous research by TA Andriani entitled the relationship between idiom mastery and
students reading comprehension. This research aimd to measure the relation between both
variabels, by using interviewed and documentation as the instrument. Based on the data finding
it can be seen that there was significance correlation between idiomatic mastery and their
reading comprehension.0
5. The last previous research by Laela entitled “Students Understanding of Idiom and their reading
comprehension of recount text, this research used correlational study in quantitative, the aimd to
measure the correlated of both variable. To collected the data this research used the test and
documentation. Based on the analyzed of the data it can be concluded that there is has
correlation between understanding idiom and their reading comprehension in recount text. 0
Based on the relevant research that had been explained, the similarities between this
research and all of the relevant research were in the first relevant research looked up the
correlation between idiomatic mastery and students’ reading comprehension of children
students, and this research focused on the same variables but in the different subject, this
research measured for twelve students’ senior high school. The second relevant research
measures the same topic to measure idiomatic but just to know the advantages and
disadvantages, it has differences with this research that focused to measure the correlation
between students' mastery idiomatic and their reading comprehension. The third relevant
research focused to know the correlation between students' idiomatic expression and their
reading achievement, the differentiation was in the instrument this research used a reading
comprehension test and idiomatic expression test, but the relevant research used the
questionnaire. The next relevant research has similarities with this research on the topic and
variables, but this research was measuring at senior high schools students that different from the
relevant research that focused on collage students, the last relevant research was conducted to
measure the relationship between two variables and this research also did that but this research
was conducted at senior high school.

REVIEW OF LITERATURE AND HYPOTHESIS

A. Theoretical Framework
1. Idiomatic Expression
Idiom (also called idiomatic expression) is an expression, word, or phrase that has a figurative
meaning conventionally understood by native speakers. This meaning is different from the literal
meaning of the idiom's individual elements.0In other words, idioms don't mean exactly as the
words literal meaning. They have, however, hidden meaning.
According to Geines idiomatic expression give English its color and vitality. Idiomatic
expressions are indispensable to the daily speech of the people and to the language of newspaper
and books, televisions and movies. 0 Mastering idioms requires a great deal of listening, studying,
practice and usage. We cannot ignore this part of the language, idiomatic expressions and more
formal grammar should be given equal time.
Moreover, Abbas and Nahid argue that an idiom is a phrase or sentence whose meaning is not
clear from the meaning of individual words and which must be learnt as a whole unit. 0 In other
words, the meaning of an idiomatic expression is not the sum of the individual words. So to
understand the meaning of idioms, the reader cannot translate or separate the words into a single
part of semantic unit because the meaning of the idiom can be interpreted by interrelate of its
words.
Idiom takes many different forms or structure. An idiom can have a regular structure, an
irregular or even grammatically incorrect structure. 0These are the special features of some idioms,
but the other idioms are completely regular and logic in their grammar and vocabulary. Because
of the special features of some idioms, learners have to learn the idiom as a whole and cannot
change any part of it.
Many definitions about idioms mentioned above, they can be concluded that an idiom is an
expression, phrase, or group of words that has different meaning from the individual word as part
of it. It cannot be translated word by word, but the meaning of idiom is the meaning of a whole
word. Idioms are sometimes irrational and ungrammatically, but another idioms are rational and
fixed grammatical. It can be understood by guessing from the context. Below are the examples of
idiomatic expression that often uses for daily communication:

Idiomatic Expression0
Idiomatic expression Meaning Function
Bad apple Bad person People can use this idiom to describe
someone who is not nice and maybe even
criminal.

Be cold-hearted Uncaring If people decide to be “cold-hearted,” they


are making a deliberate decision not to care
about someone or something.

Behind you Supportive When you are “behind” someone, you are
saying that they have your support.

Break the ice Start a conversation When you start a conversation stranger with
the end goal of making new friends.

Chasing rainbow Persuing dreams When you try to follow your dreams. The
implication here, however, is that you might
be better off forgetting your dreams.

Clear as mud Hard to understand When you are confused about something or a
situation.

Crystal clear Easy to understand When you say that something is “crystal
clear”, you are saying that it is understood.

Meanwhile, Ball in the book explained that idiom have features of language in idiomatic
expression as follows:
1) Ordinary grammatical usages
This kinds of feature of idiomatic that is use the tenses in the sentences as follows:
It is time we went home
The mean of that sentences if someone come tomorrow, I will pay you back the dollar I
owe you.
Went is a past tense, come is a present tense, and both frefer in their contexts to future
situation.
2) Deviation from strict grammar
Many colloquial uses are strictly speaking ‘ungrammatical.’Example: We
normally say, “It’s me” (him, her, them) and not “it is I” (he, she, they). We say, “It is
ages since we met”, “he is a friend of mine” (not “of me”), and, quite often, “which do
you like best?” although only two things are being compared.
3) Allusive expression
A kind of expression appears to have uncomplicated interpretation, but idiomatically
means something quite different. It is usually impossible to its meaning
Example: That will do. (That is enough)

idiomaticity in potentially idiomatic expressions. In Proceedings of the Workshop on the Cognitive Aspects of the
Lexicon 2020, (pp. 72-80) available on [Link]
10

That is enough for the time being. (That is enough for now)What are they up to? (There is
something odd, what are they planning?) Let’s call it a day. (Let’s stop work now)
4) Conventional phrase of many kinds
Most of these are phrases, which people use carelessly but the meaning is quite
unusual Now then, my friend, you can not stand there all night, you know.” (The phrase
“Now then” is used when we call someone’s attention to an activity which we want him
to stop, or, with a different intonation, the continuation of an argument.)
Then there are phrases “now and then” and “every now and then” with the meaning
occasionally, or from time to time.
5) Many uses of the phrasal verb
Examples: I can’t make out what he is doing (= understand) Don’t let on I told you (=
tell anybody, reveal
I can’t put up with it any longer (= endure it)
He laid on a band for the next events (= arranged for a band to play).
6) The phenomenon of English word order
The words are the same but a small change in word order makes a big difference
in meaning:
a) It’s time to go, isn’t it? (Answer expected “yes”) It
isn’t time to go, is it? (Answer expected “no”)
b) It may well be ahead of time. (It may well be- probably is)
c) It may be well ahead of time. (Well ahead- well in advanced of schedule time.)
d) You’ve got to say thank to Ms. Tjoo for it. (Got to thank = must thank.) You’ve
got Ms. Tjoo to say thank for it (Got Ms. Tjoo to thank = hold her responsible for
something, maybe something not good happened)
7) The picturesque and metaphorical types of idiom
Idiom is synonymous with the picturesque phrase and the more heavily stimulating
their conversation is with the better they are [Link] of this type of idiom are:
To burn one’s boat (= to make retreat impossible)
To hit nail on the head (= to reach the right conclusion)
To be in clover (= to be lucky, or happy conditions).0

2. Idiomatic expression Mastery


According to Eugene and Charles, mastery is defined as complete knowledge, great skill,
and control.0 Furthermore, they also defined mastery refers to the audhitory of master domination,
the upper hand in a contest or competition, superiority, ascendancy, and posicition or display or
great skill or technique and skil or knowledge that makes one master of a subject. 0
In another side Hasanah defined mastery as a comprehensive knowledge or use of subject
or [Link] means that mastery is learning or understanding something vompletley and
having no difficulty in using it. 0 In mastering idiomatic, the students not only study about the
meaning of words, but they also study the interpreting the specific meaning of each idiom.
From the explainations above, it can be concluded that mastering idiomatic expression means
complete knowledge or great skill of a list of words for a particular language including the

meaning, phrasal and compound idioms.


There is a common assumption that the more words a learner knows, the larger the learner‟s
vocabulary knowledge. However, there is another dimension to vocabulary knowledge that
should be considered, namely how far a learner knows the combinatory possibilities of a word.
Some linguists call them “lexical phrases” or “lexical items”, others prefer the term “multi-word
chunks” or just “chunks” of language. It is the development of permanent sets of associative
connections in long-term memory and the process which underlines the attainment of
automaticity and fluency in the language. Whatever the term, they are an important feature both
in language use and language acquisition. These multi-word chunks or expressions are namely:
idioms, proverbs, sayings, phrasal verbs, and collocations.0
Ideally, vocabulary shouldn’t be learned in a vacuum, and this is especially true for idioms.
There are a variety of idiom dictionaries for those who wish to learn more about idioms.
Newspapers and magazines, radio programs, television shows and films also sources of idioms.
Role playing, writing and interactive activities such as matching the parts of idioms are some
activities that can help foreign learners expand their knowledge and use of idioms.
Even though complete mastery of idioms may be nearly impossible, every language learner
must be prepared to meet the challenge because idioms occur so frequently in spoken and written
English such as textbooks, novels, and conversation. Researchers agree that the accuracy of idiom
comprehension increases during late childhood and adolescence and improves in adulthood.
Nippold claimed that idiom acquisition is a continuous process with no specific developmental
point when idioms are completely mastered. Nippold and Martin and Prinz pointed out that the
ability of idiom comprehension is still incomplete when learners are 18 years old. Brasseur and
Jimenez indicated that 51% of their 18-21 year-old subjects could correctly interpret at least 13
out of 20 target idioms.0
Moreover, Liu Yongjin stated that the senior high school students are expected to be master
about 300-400 phrases and idioms and 2500 words of vocabulary. 0 This is useful for the reading
requirements. Whereas they should learn the author's purpose and the main idea of the text. So,
when they read something, they should understand why the author writes something or they
should be able to grasp the main idea of some text. Also, they are required to make inferences
according to the clues of the text.
Previous developmental research has focused on various factors affecting the student’s
mastery and the comprehension of idioms such as context, idiom familiarity and idiom
transparency.0
Context facilitates interpretation of idioms since it provides the necessary semantic
information the learner needs. Familiarity and transparency are two important factors that have
been used to describe characteristics of idioms. They may influence the difficulty a learner
encounters in mastering an idiom. Familiarity has been defined as how frequently an individual
encounters an idiom. For example, have a soft spot, is a high-familiarity idiom which is used very
often in the English language, but take a powder is a low- familiarity idiom which is used rarely.
Transparency is particularly concerned with the relatedness between the literal and figurative
meanings of an idiom.

In transparent idioms, the literal and figurative meanings are closely related. For example, in
go by the book, the figurative meaning – to follow the directions exactly – is closely related to the
literal meaning, whereas in keep your shirt on the figurative meaning –remain calm – is unrelated
to the literal meaning –to continue wearing ones shirt.

a. Strategies for understanding idiomatic expression


Strategies also contribute to the pragmatic understanding. According to Wray learning foregn
language idiomatic expression is difficicult so hat it needs a special treatment.
There are some strategies that can be used to understanding the idiomatic expression as
follows:
1) Metalinguistics skills
Metalinguistic ability is defined in terms of the development of two language skill
components—the analysis of linguistic knowledge and the control of linguistic
processing” language is defined as a “complex and dynamic system of conventional
symbols that is used in various modes for thought and communication” meaning that can
change over time and is arbitrary depending on the culture and context that uses it.
Neurological analysis of language can include specific abilities such as memory, network
organization, and control over executive functioning (EF). EF includes cognitive
processes such as planning, flexibility of thought, inhibition of thought and response,
fluency, and working memory.
2) Literal translation strategy
Literal stransation is use tounderstanding idiomatic use the natural forms of the receptor
language both in the grammatical constructions and in the choices of lexical items. A
truly idiomatic translation does not sound like a translation. It sounds like it was written
originally in the receptor language. Therefore, a good translator will try to translate
idiomatically.
3) Guessing thorugh the context
Contextual guessing is making a guess based on the context of the passage the students
are reading. It means that when the students read a text, they often guess word meaning
without consulting a dictionary.0
b. Important of idiomatic expression mastery
Accorind to Thawabteh illustrated that idioms are one of the universal aspects of all
languages; they are considered to be an intrinsic part of human communication. Further, they
baffle beginner learners to a great extent. They may cause not only linguistic but also cultural
and technical problems for non-native speakers; hence, these problems might affect
communication negatively.0
Moreover, Dixon stated that idioms are essential to successful communication, whether
in listening, speaking, reading, or writing. 0 it means that the accurate and appropriate use of
idioms is a distinctive mark of native-level command of the language, and it is a reliable
measure of the proficiency of foreign learners. It is a fact that ignoring idioms would cause a
learner various problem. The authors added that foreign language learners must learn not only
the grammatical structures and vocabulary of the target language but also the idioms to
integrate into the culture of the target language.
Furthermore, Lundblom & Woods emphasised the importance of understanding idioms. 0

They believe that idioms are clearly presented in academic settings; consequently, failure to
comprehend idioms could affect academic performance, written composition, reading
comprehension, and vocabulary, especially because the occurrence of idioms in classroom
language increases as students advance in age and grade. 0 Several language researchers have
common believe that a sound knowledge of idioms is required or English language
proficiency and fluency, and a lack of such knowledge can cause significant
misunderstanding Thus, it becomes clear that idioms are very important in EFL/ESL contexts
where L2 learners’ language proficiency might be assessed on the basis of their
understanding of idiomatic expression. This means that the more idioms one knows, the more
native-like one’s English will sound.

3. Reading Comprehension
Comprehension is the center reading.0According to Caldwell, comprehension is the
ability to understand completely and be familiar with a situation and fact. Comprehension starts
from move the words on the page to the meaning in the mind, recognize individual words using
memory and knowledge of letter and sound patterns, match the resulting pronunciations with
meanings, and finally connect these words into idea units. 0 It means a person's ability to
understand context based on what is read or heard.
Reading comprehension is intentional thinking during which meaning is constructed
through interactions between text and reader. 0It means that reading comprehension is a process in
which the reader constructs meaning using material, information in the text and the reader's
knowledge.0
According to Woolley, reading comprehension is the process of making meaning from
text. Therefore, the aim is to gain an overall understanding of what is described in the book rather
than getting meaning from isolated words or sentences0
It can be said that reading comprehension is the process to make sense as a whole what is
described in the text. Based on the explanation, it can be concluded that reading comprehension is
a process of interaction between the reader and the text, understanding the meaning and purpose
contained in the text.
a. Components of Reading comprehension
Brown classifies eight aspects of reading comprehension, namely:
1) Main idea
This is the ability of students in interpreting main idea in the text.
2) Expression/idiom/phrases in context
The expression/idioms/ phrases in the text
3) Inferences (implied detail)
The students understanding about the inferences in the text
4) Grammatical features
5) Vocabulary
6) Detail (scanning for a specifically stated detail)
7) Excluding fact not written (unstated details).0

Based on the explaination above it can be concluded that the students knows about
main idea, expression/idiom/phrases in context, inferences (implied detail), grammatical
features, detail (scanning for a specifically stated detail), excluding fact not written (unstated
details), supporting ideas, and vocabulary in context.
b. Basic Skills in Reading Comprehension
Reading is very important thing because reading is basic skill before speaking, and
writing ability, there is communication between the reader and the writer when someone
reads. The writers deliver the message in written from and the readers could understand the
content of messagess. So, the reading became active in reading. According to Klingner,there
are fundamental skill in reading comprehension as follows:
a. Word Reading The ability of the reader to get to know the word and understand a
reading, and Students must know how to read or decode
b. Fluency The ability of the reader to recognize the word and understand the reading at
the same time.
c. Vocabulary Understanding vocabulary means comprehend what the words mean.
When vocabulary mastery improves, comprehending will be deeper. Since
comprehension is ultimate goal of reading. With understanding vocabulary knowing
what the words mean in context.
d. Word Knowledge having sufficient background knowledge to benefit from reading
text.0
One of them is to make it easier for readers to understand the text. Based
on the explanation above, the researcher concludes that reading needs to be
equipped with basic understanding reading skills or fundamental skill in reading
to make it easier for readers to understand the texts.
c. Factors of Affecting Reading Comprehension
According to Vaughn and Thompson comprehension is the active constructing meaning
from text. It involves accessing previous knowledge, understanding vocabulary and concepts,
making inferences, and linking key ideas. Comprehension cannot be learned through rote
instruction, but requires a series of strategies that influence understanding of text. Reading
comprehension includes:
1) Applying one’s knowledge and experiences to the text. b. Setting goals for reading
and ensuring that they are aligned with the text.
2) Using strategies and skills to construct meaning during and after reading.
3) Adapting strategies that match the reader’s text and goals.
4) Recognizing the author’s purpose.
5) Distinguishing between facts and opinions. 0
Drawing logical conclusion. In line with the explanation above, we know that reading
comprehension is the ability to take information from written text and do something with it in
a way that demonstrates knowledge or understanding of that information.
d. Levels of Reading Comprehension
Reading comprehension is a process of making sense of written ideas through
meaningful interpretation and interaction with language. Reading comprehension is best
viewed as a multifaceted process affected by several thinking and language abilities.
1) Level of Comprehension
In teaching reading comprehension, the teacher should be aware of levels of
comprehension, so that they have some criteria by which to judge the materials they use in
the classroom, and also the level of comprehension uses by the students at any particular

time. Levels of comprehension divided into three categories:


2) Literal comprehension
Literal comprehension represents the ability to obtain a low-level type of understanding
by using information explicitly stated. This category requires a lower level of thinking
skill than the other levels. Answer to literal questions simply demand that the pupil recall
what the book says Literal comprehension is the understanding of the written meaning of
a passage: the definition of words, the context of the writing, the main idea of the passage,
and the sequence thought chosen by the author. In short, literal comprehension is what is
actually stated. Like fact and details, role learning and memorization, and surface
understanding only.
3) Interpretive comprehension
Interpretation is the text step in the hierarchy. This categories demand a higher level of
thinking because the questions are concerned with answer not directly stated in the text
but suggested or implied. To answer question at the interpretive level, readers must have
problem solving and be able to work at various levels of obstruction. The interpretive level
is the one at which the most confusion exists when it comes to categorizing skills. All the
reading skills in interpretation rely on the reader’s ability to “infer” the answer in one way
or other. However, by grouping all the interpretive reading skills under inference, “some
of the most distinctive and desirable skills would become smothered and obscured”7.
4) Critical comprehension
Critical comprehension is more than evaluating the quality of the text or stating an opinion
about it. Critical comprehension requires reader to make judgments about what they are
reading based on an evaluation of several text-grounded factors, such as the quality of the
writing, the determination that it is fact not opinion, the objectivity of the author, and
whether the text is believable. In short critical comprehension is analyzing, evaluating,
and personally reacting to information presented in a passage.0

4. Text
Siahaan and Shinoda stated that a text is meaningful language in a contexts, it is both a spoken
and write text.0 Therefore text is a writing form or result of the writer result. Write text is any
meaningful write text. The writer assumes that text is some sentences in write text and the readers
can get information from the text.
a. Kinds of text
Text is when these words are put together to communicate a meaning, a piece a text is
created. Pardiyono said that there are 9 kinds of text that must be taught by students.
1) Descriptive text
Descriptive is the type of text that describes an object.
2) Recount text
Recount text is the type of text about information in the past event.
3) Narrative text
Narrative text is the type of text about problematic story that has a climax and document as a
solution in the end of the story. The story can be a fiction such as legend, fairytale, myth,
and fable.
4) Procedure text
Procedure text is the type of text to describe how something is accomplished through a
sequence of actions or steps.

5) Explanation text
Explanation text is the type of text to explain the processes involved in the formation or
workings of natural or socio-cultural phenomena.
6) Report text
Report text is the type of text to describe the way things are, with reference to a range of
natural, man-made and social phenomena in our environment.
7) Exposition text
Exposition text is the type of text about argument or opinion of someone to perceive the
problem.
8) Discussion text
Discussion text is the type of text to present (at least) two points of view about an issue.
9) News item
News item is the type of text about events of the day which are considered newsworthy or
important.0
Based on the explanation above this research focus to measure students reading
comprehension in recount text, recount text is the type of the text that tells the factual story, truly
story the context of this study is measure to now the students’ reading comprehension in the text.

b. Recount text
Many experts tried to define the meaning of recount text. According to Knapp and
Watkins, the Recount text describes an event that has accrued in the past. 0 It means that Recount
is a kind of text that retells events or experiences in the past. According to Anderson, recount
text is speaking or writing about past events or a piece of text that retells past events, usually in
the order in which they happened.0 Recount text means the form of the text talking about
someone's experience in the past, therefore the experience of the readers themselves, such as
their adventure and days activities. It means that recount text is a text which retells the event in
the past. Moreover, according to Knapp and Watkins, the purpose of recount text is to
reconstruct past events in the time order in which they occurred.0
Reading recount text usually can make the reader imagine the incidents which the writer
tells. The purpose of recount text is to retail a series of events, usually, in the order, they
occurred. In another word, the purpose of recount text is to inform the readers about something
that has already happened. There is a generic structure that is in recount text:
1) Orientation: the orientation supplies the background information. It establishes the time,
setting, and who or what participating.
2) Series of events: sequence events that happened from the beginning until the end.
3) Re-orientation: this is an optional stage and is often used to complete the writing by
rounding off the series of events.0
Based on the explanation above, it can be concluded that recount text is a text that talks
about something that happened in the past to give information about what has already
happened. Recount text consist of three parts, namely orientation, series of event, and re-
orientation. orientation mentions when the events happened, who was involved, what
happened, and where the events took place. Series of events text what happened in sequence.
Reorientation is the ending of the story.

1)Types of recount text


According to Beverly, there are three types of recount text. There are personal recounts,
factual recounts, and imaginative recounts:
a) Personal recount
The personal recount is something that the writer or speaker has experienced
personally. It means that a personal recount is a story that tells about activities
whereas the writer or speaker involves or does by her or himself. This type uses first
pronouns (i, we). Some examples of personal recounts include family holidays and
diary entries.
b) Factual recount
Factual recount records the details of the particular incident. A factual recount is
concerned with recalling events accurately. This type uses the third person pronouns
(he, she, it, and they). Some examples include accident reports and historical
recounts.
c) Imaginative recount
Imaginative recount gives details of what might have happened in the past. It
means that an imaginative recount describes an imaginary role and gives details of
imaginary events.0

2)Language features in a recount


The language features usually found in a recount as follows:
a) Nouns and pronouns to identify people, animals, or things involved: firstly, my father
refused my request and promised that he would teach me two or three years later, but
I still whimpered.
b) Past action verbs to refer to the events: he just gave me some advice and since that
accident.
c) Past tense to locate events concerning speaker’s or writer's time: he began to teach
me to ride the motorcycle around a field in my village.
d) Conjunction and time connectives to sequences the events: finally, my father
surrendered and promised to teach me.
e) Adverb and adverbial phrases to indicate place and time: one day later, when I was
alone at home, I intended to try my riding ability.
f) Adjective to describe nouns: I realized my ability to ride a motorcycle. 0

B. Frame of Thinking Reading


Reading is considered as the skill that has to be learned firstly before the other skills. It is
because in the actual life, the students may find the actual reading materials such as a newspaper,
magazines, booklets, social media (Facebook, twitter, Youtube, etc.) and so on. On the cases of
school subject, a written text is being used as a vehicle for the introduction of new vocabulary and
structures.
Reading is not just read the words. It needs comprehension to understand what the writer
wants to deliver to us. Reading needs skill to comprehend text. When students comprehend the text,
students also analyze the structure, grammar, and word knowledge of the text. Words unite and form
a sentence, sentence forms a paragraph, and paragraph forms a passage.
There are many vocabularies in a passage. Some of them are multi words, namely idiom.
Idiom consists of two or more words that have a new meaning. In reading, students frequently
translate word by word to understand the text, but when they translate idiom, it differs from translate
word by word. Idiom can be understood by translating as a whole word and by guessing from the
context. To understand the text, idioms should be known their meaning to get a complete

comprehension. The more students getting know about idiom and master it, they also get better in
reading comprehension. Because idioms almost appear in every English text, so students must be
aware and familiar with idiom to help them in comprehending the [Link] figure describe the frame

CHAPTER III
RESEARCH METHOD

A. Time and Place of the Research


1. Time of the Research
This research was conducted at the second semester in the academic year 2023/2024
2. Place of the Research
This research was conducted at SMAN 1 Way Pengubuan. It is located on St. Siliwangi
Kampung, Banjar Ratu, Way Pengubuan, Kabupaten Lampung Tengah, Lampung 34581,
Indonesia.

B. Research Design
The research design in this study was a descriptive quantitative which used correlational design.
According to Cresweel correlation is a statistical test to determine the tendency or pattern for two or
more variables or two set of data to vary constantly. In the case of two variables, it means that two
variables share common variance, or they co-vary together.0
It was employed to find out and measure the relationship between two variables covering an
independent variable idiomatic expression and their reading comprehension of the tenth grade at
SMAN 1 Way Pengubuan. The researcher used the test to collecting the data. In doing the research,
the researcher following some procedures as follows:
1. Asked permission to the Headmaster and English teacher at SMAN 1 Way Pengubuan
2. Determined the sample of research
3. Came to the class to explain the purpose of research to the students
4. Came to the class to give idiomatic expression and reading comprehension to the students
5. Took the data of research
6. Analyzed the data of research by using SPSS version 25
7. Concluded the result

C. Population , sample and Sampling Technique


1. Population
Population is the whole subject of the research. Sugiyono stated that population is
generalization area that consists of object and subject that have certain quality and character to
be learned and to be concluded.0 So the population is not only about the people, but also objects
and other natural objects. Population is also not just the amount that exists on the subject/object
studied but includes all the characteristics or properties possessed by the subject/object itself. In
this research, the researcher chose the tenth-grade students ar SMAN 1 Way Pengubunan with
the totals 128 students from four classes.

2. Sample
Sample is taken from the population. Sample is portion of population. the sample of this
research is taken to facilitate the accommodation of the research. sample taking must be careful
because samples are used to generalize the population. 0 A correlation study should be taken for
at least 64 participants0; the smaller sample than 64 may give inaccurate the degree relationship

among the variables.


However, it is suggested that the greater the sample the better for the quantitative research
because the bigger the sample the more it represents the population. The sample this research was
64 students.

3. Sampling technique
In getting the sample of population in this research used cluster random sampling. Fraenkel
and Wallen stated that the selection of groups, cluster of subjects rather than individuals is
known as cluster random sampling.4
D. Definition Operasional Variable
Based on the explanation above, the operational definitions of variable can be identified as
follows:
1. Idiomatic Expression Mastery(X)
Idiom (also called idiomatic expression) is an expression, word, or phrase that has a figurative
meaning conventionally understood by native speakers. This meaning is different from the literal
meaning of the idiom's individual elements. In other words, idioms do not mean exactly as the
words literal meaning. 0 It means that an idiom is a phrase or sentence whose meaning is not
clear from the meaning of individual words and which must be learn as a whole unit of
languages.
2. Reading Comprehension (Y)
Reading comprehension is intentional thinking during which meaning is constructed through
interactions between text and reader.0It means that reading comprehension is a process in which
the reader constructs meaning using material, information in the text and the reader's knowledge.

E. Data Collecting Technique


In collecting the data this research used test achievement. Tests were divided into two tests
Reading comprehension and included idiomatic test. The test of reading comprehension which
consisted of idiomatic expreesion and reading comprehension. For the test was consisted of fourty
items of multiple choice uqestiona and measured students reading comprehension. Below were the

CHAPTER IV
RESEARCH FINDING AND DISCUSSION

A. Research Finding
The researcher asked permission to the headmaster and the teacher did the research at tenth
grade of SMAN 1 Way Pengubuan. Furthermore, the researcher had chosen randomly the class
which the researcher did for the research. After getting the class, the English teacher brought the
researcher to the class and introduced the researcher to the students.
This research was conducted in two classes which consists of 64 students. The researcher
gave idiomatic expression and reading comprehension with 20 items. Furthermore, the
researcher told to the students if the researcher did the test in their class about students’
idiomatic expression and students’ reading comprehension. Next, the researcher asked to the
students about the definition of students’ idiomatic expression and students’ reading
comprehension. Almost all of the students know what is students’ idiomatic expression and
students’ reading comprehension, but they convey their understanding about students’ idiomatic
expression and students’ reading comprehension by their own knowledge. In the end, the
researcher got the score and calculated it to know the correlation between students’ students’
idiomatic expression and the students’ reading comprehension.

1. The Students Score for Idiomatic expression and Reading Comprehension


There were two kinds of scoring in this research. Firstly, the score was taken from idiomatic
expression and the second one was reading test (see appendix 6). The result of statistical
computation by using SPSS 25.0 as follows:

2. Normality Test
In this research, the researcher used SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Science) to count
the data of research. Normality test aimed to know whether or not the data have normal
distribution. The researcher analyzed the data from the score of idiomatic expression and reading
comprehension.

With the criteria as follows:


Ho = the data have normal distribution.
Ha = the data do not have normal distribution.
The criteria of acceptance or rejection of the hypotheses for normality test were:
Ho is accepted if Sig. (Pvalue) > α = 0.05
27

Ha is accepted if Sig. (Pvalue) < α = 0.05

Based on the output data from SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Science) by using One
Sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov Test, it showed that the data have normal distribution because sig
> α = 0.05 (0.200 > 0.05).

3. Linearity Test
Linearity test aimed to know if there was any relation between X (Idiomatic Expression) and
Y (Reading comprehension) variable. In the research, the researcher used the statistical
computation by using SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Science). The test of linearity and the
criteria as follows:

The variables have linear relation if sig > α = 0.05


The variables have no linear relation if sig < α = 0.05

Table 4.2
The Linearity Data

Based on the data above, it can be seen that the result of linearity was 0.142 it was higher
than significance 0.05. Therefore, the variables have linear relationship. (see appendix 9).

4. The Correlation between idiomatic expression and reading comprehension


This research aimed to find whether there was correlation between students’ idiomatic
expression and their students’ reading comprehension. The data was obtained by using SPSS
version 25.0. The researcher used Product Moment formula to find the result of correlation. The
result can be described as follows:

*Correlation is significant at the 0.05 level (2-tailed).

From the calculation about the correlation between the students’ idiomatic expression and
the students' reading comprehension at the tenth grade of SMAN 1 Way Pengubuan obtained the
result that rxy 0.986, significant (2-tailed) 0.000 and the number of subjects was 64 (see
appendix 10).
However, the statistical hypothesis on this research:
Ha : sig.2 tailed < 0.05 (there was a correlation between the students’ idiomatic expression and the
students' reading comprehension at the tenth grade of SMAN 1 Way Pengubuan)
Ho : sig. 2 tailed > 0.05 (there was no correlation between the students’ idiomatic expression and the
students' reading comprehension at the tenth grade of SMAN 1 Way Pengubuan)
The result of the computation showed that the coefficient of correlation between students’
idiomatic expression (X) and students’ reading comprehension (Y) was 0.986. Then the
significant was 0.000 lower than 0.05 (sig. 2 tailed 0.000 < 0.05). Therefore, H a was accepted. It
can be concluded that there was correlation between students’ idiomatic expression and the
students' reading comprehension at the tenth grade of SMAN 1 Way Pengubuan. The
interpretation about the rate of the correlation coefficient was formed by certain rule, were as
follows:

Table 4.5
The Index of Correlation
N Coefficient Interval Level of Correlation
o
1 0.800-1.000 High Correlation
2 0.600-0.800 Sufficient Correlation
3 0.400-0.600 High correlation
4 0.200-0.400 Low Correlation
5 0.000-0.200 Very Low Correlation

Based on the computation, it was known that the value of rxy= 0.986. It was
categorized by using coefficient correlation criteria above. It was obtained that 0.986 and
classified interval 0.800 – 1.000 on the high correlation.

B. Discussion
Idioms refer to expressions or phrases which are peculiar to a given language and which
carry either a literal meaning or a non-literal meaning depending on the intent of the writer. In
other words, idioms as the term are used here, are ambiguous, and to be understood must either
29

be known as a unit or deduced from the context. That is, the intended meaning cannot be arrived
at by literal analysis. 'He kicked the bucket' can literally mean just that, but it usually conveys its
idiomatic meaning: 'he died'.
Students tend to take longer to finish the test of idiomatic expression questions because they
interpret one by one the word at a time so that in the end they are confused about the meaning of
these words, even though students should not interpret one by one the word at a time but must
understand the context of the text they are reading. It is supported by Cain et al that if students
understand the context of a story, they will be able to interpret the idioms contained in the text. 0
it is clear that idiomatic expression has relation to reading comprehension.
There are several texts in the idiomatic expression questions and the researcher provided
questions regarding idiomatic expressions such as hit the sack, a bird in the hand is better than
two in the bush, like fish out of water, make a long story short, and so on. It can be seen that the
students took longer to finish on idiomatic expression questions than reading comprehension.
The researcher monitored and asked the students a little why they looked confused. Students
answered that they had never worked on specific idiom questions like this because usually there
were only one or two questions in English regarding idiomatic expressions, so they were not
used to working on this many questions. That was why they need more time than usual.
This research was about finding the answer whether there was correlation between the
students’ idiomatic expression and students’ reading comprehension. The researcher took the
data of research in two classes which consisted of 64 students. First, the researcher gave
research permission to the school, then conducted research in a not so long period of time,
approximately one week. The researcher gave 20 questions about idiomatic expressions and 20
questions about reading comprehension as well.
After carrying out both idiomatic expression and reading comprehension tests, the
researcher then analyzed the scores obtained by the students. It can be seen that scores on
idiomatic expressions tend to be lower than reading comprehension scores. It can be seen that
the highest score obtained by students on the idiomatic expression test was 90. Although it was
not too different from the reading comprehension score, which was 95, in order to understand
idiomatic expressions students looked very confused and often asked different questions to the
researcher than when they were working on reading comprehension questions.
This research was completed with two types of completion. The first test was about reading
comprehension. The first test was given directly to students at school and the second was
through the Google form. This was because the school does not allow researcher to linger on
research at school due to limitation of time. The school does not want students to be disturbed
by researcher. When the students did idiomatic test, the researcher could no longer control the
situation since she had no idea whether they cheated to look for the answer on internet or not.
The researcher could not control the students while the test online, but when viewed from
the range between the scores between students who took the test using the Google form, they got
almost similar score to students who took the test directly in class. It can be concluded from
these factors that if students are able to take the idiomatic expression test, it will automatically
be easy for them to take the reading comprehension test.
These factors imply that the students’ activity and frequency in students’ idiomatic
expression gave a useful contribution to enlarge their students’ reading comprehension. 0 It
means that if the student understands idiomatic expression, it could increase their reading
comprehension skill to be better. From the findings and the discussion above, the researcher
concluded that there was high correlation between students’ idiomatic expression and their

students’ reading comprehension at the second semester at the tenth grade of SMAN 1 Way
Pengubuan Lampung. Therefore, the null Hypothesis (Ho) was rejected and the alternative
hypothesis (Ha) could be accepted.
In other words, the more students deepen their knowledge of idiomatic expressions the
easier it will be for them to learn reading comprehension questions because idiomatic expression
questions are considered difficult for students, so if the most difficult questions can be solved it
will be easy for students to work on normal level questions. Even though idioms are not often
found in a text, they can interfere with understanding if students do not understand their
meaning. It is in line with a theory stated by Abbas and Nahid in previous chapter that the
meaning of an idiomatic expression is not the sum of the individual words. 0 Therefore, to
understand the meaning of idioms, the reader cannot translate or separate the words into a single
part of semantic unit because the meaning of the idiom can be interpreted by interrelate of its
words.
Based on the results of the research which showed that students took longer to complete the
idiom test than reading comprehension, the students should be taught to recognize idioms. It is
the same as theory stated by Titone et al that in mastering idiomatic, the students not only study
about the meaning of words, but they also study the interpret the specific meaning of each
idiom.0 In other words, mastering idiomatic expression means complete knowledge or great skill
of a list of words for a particular language including the meaning, phrasal and compound
idioms.
Is it possible to train students to discern idioms by the use of 'context clues', or through an
understanding of metaphorical language. Students can also learn idiomatic expressions from
various sources. The best source for learning idiomatic expression is by watching foreign talk
shows such as Ellen Talk Show and western films such as Harry Potter, Spiderman, Batman etc
where all actors and actress are native speakers. Therefore, the students will get used to hearing
and remembering the idioms they have watched.
In the end, the researcher concluded that one of the factors affecting students' reading
comprehension achievement is their ability to express themselves idiomatically. If idiom
comprehension is related to general abilities in processing linguistic information, then students
who are proficient in text comprehension should also be more adept at comprehensive and
idiomatic expression than students who are less proficient. In other words, a student’s reading
aptitude and understanding abilities should be closely associated. It means the idiom mastery
must be directly proportional to the aim of reading comprehension. It can be said that students
who master idioms well get better in reading comprehension.

CHAPTER V

CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION

A. Conclusion
Based on the result of the research, the researcher provides the conclusion as follows:
There was high correlation between the students’ idiomatic expression and the students’ reading
comprehension at the tenth grade of SMAN 1 Way Pengubuan in academic year 2023/2024. The
reason for high correlation because the result of computation by using SPSS obtained 0.986 and it was
on high criteria.

B. Recommendation
Based on the conclusion above, it is recommended that in students’ idiomatic expression and in
students’ reading comprehension as follows:
1. For the students
1) Students are advised to watch and understand a lot about idiomatic expressions that can be
found in western films for example from film Harry Potter, Batman, and Spiderman and from
talk show such as Ellen Talk Show because they use everyday conversations from native
speakers. So that when there is a test of idiomatic expressions students will not work on it for
too long.
2) Students are advised to practice looking for idioms contained in a text such as in recount text
because this text describes about daily accident, so that it frequently contains of some idioms. In
a text there will only be one to two idioms so it will not be difficult for students to practice
understanding them.

2. For the English teachers


1) The teacher is suggested to give many examples of idiomatic expression, because idiomatic
expression is quite difficult to be found in a text. Idiomatic expression can be found in the type
of text such as recount text and script of talk show.
2) Various methods of teaching an understanding of idioms should be explored by the teacher. For
example, is it possible to train students to discern idioms by the use of context clues. The
teacher can use the script of talk show that usually contains of idiom.

3. For Future Researchers


1) This research hopes that this research can inspire and motivate the future researcher who have
desire to conduct researchers on the same topic or make another innovation based on research.
2) This research is expected to give contribution and to verify the theories dealing with theories
about idiomatic expression in the students’ reading comprehension ability and the result of this
research hopefully can be used as reference, information or consideration for teacher to
understand learners type in learning language, especially in reading.
3) It is better for future researchers to conduct the research in the classroom directly because this
research was conducted in two ways namely online and offline. It would be better if the future
researchers conduct the research offline because online research was not effective.

The following text is for questions number 36 to 40.
The Battle of Surabaya was fought between pro-independence Indonesian soldiers and militia
against British and British Indian troops as a part of the Indonesian National Revolution.
The peak of the battle was in November 1945. This battle was happened once in a blue moon. The
battle was the heaviest single battle of the revolution and became a national symbol of Indonesian
resistance. Fighting broke out on 30 October after the British commander, Brigadier A. W. S.
Mallaby was killed in a skirmish. Although the Colonial forces largely captured the city in three
days, the poorly armed Republicans fought for three weeks, and thousands died as the population
fled to the countryside.
The battle and defence mounted by the Indonesians galvanised the nation in support of
independence and helped garner international attention. For the Dutch, it removed any doubt that
the Republic was not simply a gang of collaborators without popular support. They make a long
story short, it also had the effect of convincing Britain that wisdom lay on the side of neutrality in
the revolution; within a few years, in fact, Britain would support the Republican cause in the
United Nations.
Considered a heroic effort by Indonesians, the battle helped galvanise Indonesian and
international support for Indonesian independence. 10 November is celebrated annually as
Heroes’ Day. (Source: [Link]

The Supersemar, the Indonesian Order of March the Tenth, was a document signed by the
Indonesian President Sukarno on 11 March 1966.
It is said that it was giving the army commander Lt. Gen. Suharto authority to take whatever
measures he “deemed necessary” to restore order to the chaotic situation during the Indonesian
killings of 1965 – 1966.
The abbreviation “Supersemar” is a play on the name of Semar, the mystic and powerful
figure who commonly appears in Javanese mythology including wayang puppet shows. The
invocation of Semar was presumably intended to help draw on Javanese mythology to lend
support to Suharto’s legitimacy during the period of the transition of authority from Sukarno to
Suharto.
In effect, the Supersemar came to be seen as the key instrument of the transfer of executive power
from Sukarno to Suharto. (Source: [Link]

Today was a particularly hectic day. Thankfully, Rose was at home to assist me in
washing dishes, making quince jelly, and caring for our newest family member, the boy. This
was yet another ordinary day. Jean came in after we completed our chores and began enjoying
the dinner we had just prepared. Rose was tending to the child. A heavy knock came at the
entrance. I sat there waiting for Jean or Rose to pass. Jean sprang from his seat, knife and fork
both clutched in his hands. “Can’t a guy eat in peace?” he exclaimed. “I’ve come to arrest you
Mr. Jean Clarkson for horse stealing,” a deep voice said when Jean opened the bell. I stood
there watching Jean finish his last bite of dinner. He then told me that he was about to be
arrested. If there was no subpoena, I informed him he didn’t have to go. I screamed at him,
telling him he shouldn’t have let him in. Jean confidently said, “It’s all right, Mum,” in an
attempt to quiet me down.

The bread was taken out of the oven by me. Jean ate the rest of his food from his
bowl with a large slice of thick bread. Constable Fitzgerald was standing nearby. ‘I’ll just go
grab my jacket!” Jean said. I chased after Jean, shouting at him for letting him in when he
shouldn’t have. Rose’s screams could be heard. I dashed back to see what had happened.
Fitzgerald was bullying her, she explained. I charged into the kitchen, grabbed the shovel, and
smacked him in the face. Jean dashed back into the room and tackled him to the ground.
Cathy was right there when the door swung open. Cathy entered the room and took
Fitzgerald’s rifle. Fitzgerald was shot in the wrist by the revolver. “Touch our sister again,
and there will be a bullet in your head,” both boys said as they stood there. My sons made me
proud when they stood up for their sister. (Source: [Link]

Indonesian EFL students face several challenges with idiomatic expressions. They struggle to find and translate idiomatic expressions between Indonesian and English, which makes understanding text meanings difficult. This difficulty is heightened by the students' lack of vocabulary and inability to discern the true meaning of idiomatic phrases within texts .

Background knowledge and vocabulary are crucial for reading comprehension. Individuals with broader background knowledge have an advantage since they can relate personal experiences and knowledge to the text, facilitating understanding. A strong vocabulary is essential as it helps in correctly interpreting words and idioms which are frequently encountered in various forms of text .

Idiomatic expressions are considered building blocks of language and civilization because they encapsulate cultural references and collective shared experiences, thus providing insights into societal values and communication norms. They enrich language by offering non-literal expressions that convey specific meanings understood within cultural contexts .

The researcher concluded that there is a significant positive impact of idiomatic expression mastery on students’ reading comprehension. Students who are proficient in idioms are generally better at understanding texts, as this proficiency reflects an enhanced ability to process complex linguistic structures, thus leading to improved comprehension skills .

Recount text is chosen because it commonly includes idiomatic expressions due to its informal style. This text type often reflects daily life situations and stories, providing a suitable context for analyzing how well students can apply their knowledge of idioms to comprehend meaning and context within the text .

To overcome difficulties with idiomatic expressions, it is suggested that students be trained to use context clues and an understanding of metaphorical language to discern idioms. Additionally, watching foreign media like talk shows and films can help students become familiar with idiomatic expressions in practical use, allowing them to improve comprehension through repetition and context exposure .

Training students to recognize and interpret idiomatic expressions can significantly enhance their reading comprehension skills. By learning idioms using context clues or metaphorical language, students improve their linguistic processing abilities. Resources like watching native English media can familiarize students with the practical use of idioms, which aids in better comprehension of texts that include such expressions .

Idiomatic expressions differ from the sum of their individual words' meanings because they cannot be understood by interpreting each word separately. Instead, idioms convey a meaning interrelated from their constituent words, forming a phrase with a figurative or culturally specific significance that goes beyond the literal interpretation of the words involved .

Comprehension of idiomatic expressions enhances students' general abilities to process linguistic information. Students who are skilled in understanding and using idioms tend to perform better in comprehending texts because this skill is indicative of their broader ability to process and make sense of linguistic nuances, which is crucial for reading comprehension .

The study describes a high correlation between students' mastery of idiomatic expressions and their reading comprehension. Mastering idioms contributes significantly to understanding the meaning and context in recount texts, as these texts often use idiomatic expressions frequently. This skill in understanding idioms directly relates to improved reading comprehension abilities among the students .
