Abstract

This ponder pointed at exploring how regularly Indonesian EFL learners utilized moment dialect (L2) communication techniques and how their instructing influenced both their independence in talking and talking accomplishment after treatment. A few 33 understudies of the English Office, Universitas Lampung, Indonesia, were included in this ponder employing a one-group pretest-posttest quasi-experimental plan. The information of this think about was collected through talking tests and surveys. The collected data were analyzed utilizing graphic measurements and matched test t-tests. Comes about appears that, to begin with, we recognized six L2 communication techniques (circumlocution, guess, comparison, representation, word coinage, and foreignizing) utilized by the learners. Moment, in common, there was an expanded utilization of the techniques in, or the positive impact of the procedures on, their learning independence in talking and their talking accomplishment. These discoveries are practically noteworthy primarily to supply instructors with input within the Indonesian school setting to apply communication techniques that suit understudies conceivably.
