To support the observation, the writer wants to know the character of young children.
According to Wendy A.Scott & Libeth H. Yireberg (2003:2), In Teaching English to
children said:
The character of the young language learner:
They know that the world is governed by rules. They may not always understand the
rules, but they know that they are there to be obeyed and the rules help to nurture a
feeling of security.
They understand situation more quikly and they understand the language used.
They use language skill long before they are a ware of them.
Their own understanding comes through hand, eyes, and ears. Physical world is dominant
at all time.
Young children are enthusiastic and positive about learning.
It means, we all thrive on doing well and being praised for what we do and this is
especially true for kids. It is important to praise them if they keep their enthusiasm and
feel successful from the beginning.
From those characteritic, it can be concluded that young children have habit to improve
their innate capacity by hearing what the people said. They learn language word by word
through social interaction. As according to J.D.O. Cannor (1967:1) in Better English
pronounciation said:
“Language starts with the ear. When a baby stars to talk, he does it by hearing the
sound his mother makes and imitating them “
So, it can be concluded that Language is habit:
Speaking is mouth-action: so, you must use your mouth.
Reading is mouth and eye-action: so, you must use your mouth.
Listening is ear-action: so, you must use your ear.
Writing is hand-action: so, must use your action.
Someone can speak depend on hearing, but just hearing, it is not enough, she or he must
listen to it, and it is not for the meaning but for the sound of it. It means that language is
habit.
B. Function
Language is very important for human life. English language is one of the
tools of communication in international community. Therefore, English is needed
here because not only English is used to communicate in international community,
but also the fact that this language is mostly needed in transferring the knowledge of
modern technology, scientific publications, books, newspaper and magazine.
In learning a language especially in writing, it is needed a good ways. In the
other word, learning English can be begun early when children still in elementary
school, in a good writing can be learned by over learning either in school or at home,
minimally, the children can write in their diary about experience, school, and friends.
