The researcher took 20% of the total population using a random sampling technique with a sample of 27 students. The results of this study indicate that students are still confused about identifying parts of speech because some words can function in different parts of speech. Therefore, students' ability in identifying parts of speech is in fair category. In other words, the ability to identify parts of speech has not been maximized. Therefore, it can be seen that the average achievement of all components of a part of speech is 63.85, which can be categorized as fair.
