Abstract

Abstract: This research was motivated by students who had difficulty
remembering Japanese vocabulary. Therefore, this research was conducted with the
aim of finding out the initial vocabulary abilities of class XII Bahasa students. This
research uses descriptive research with a quantitative approach. The population in this
study was SMAN 1 Dayun with the selected sample being class XII Bahasa. This
research was conducted from in August. This research only explains how the initial
Japanese language vocabulary skills of class XII are. The results of the research are
that based on the results of the tests carried out by students, the average pre-test score
was 47.85 in the very poor category. Of the total students, there were 2 people who got
a score in the good category, 2 people in the fair category, 1 person in the poor
category and 25 people got a score in the very poor category. If you look at the overall
student scores, the most scores in the very poor category were obtained by 25 students,
this proves that the average vocabulary ability of class XII Bahasa students is still
very low.
