1 INTRODUCTION
In general, the Islamic boarding school of
Ibadurrahman requires the students’ speaking by
English and Arabic language with others friend for
three months. The rest, students’ will be accostumed
to foreign language in daily conversation to be
habitual speaking. Here, the Islamic boarding school
to show the ability of students’ but half of the
students’ are not able speaking foreign language,
because they fear to give a punishement.
As for the punishement is the vocabulary
memorizing. Everyday, they learn and memorize of
vocabularies more than ten vocabulary. In this
problem, it is needed of character values for
students’ by intensive learning. As Abraham Lincoln
phrase: ”Character is like a tree, and reputation is
like its shadow. A shadow is what we think of it, the
tree is the real thing.” Then, having character as the
potential in students’ English skills with the simply
means is following the rules (Djailani, 2013).
For other reason, the students can not export the
language into the conversation because of
embarrassement. They are also pessimistic when the
other person uses a vocabulary that they do not
know it. To deal with the problem, have to
internalized the character values in english language
which needed a confidence and optimistic in their
speaking english language. Here, the writers will
introduce and doing approach to identity of the
students, to whom they also remind them what is the
goal important of foreign languge especially in
english speaking.
It turns out that less precise schooling is one of
the factors of education failure. On the stated his
book “the Soul of Education” Rachael Kessler
(ASCD, 2000) wrote; Many classroom are
spirititualy empty not by eccident, but by design. As
we look that statement means education not only

goverments’ responsibility but with parents,
educational institutions, relegious organizations, and
communities will be participating in chararacter
building personality.
Rules at Islamic boarding school help its students
in building their characters through five pillar in
principles, they are: Sincerity, Simplicity,
Independency, Brotherhood guided by the spirit of
relegion, and freedom.(Fahham, 2013) Another
study investigating, Faiziyah, N. and Fachrurrazy
(2017) was found that there were character values
integrated in lesson plan studied. The lesson plan
integrated the values of confidence, logical thinking,
creativity, innovativeness, open mindedness,
responsibility, politeness, activeness, respect,
dicipline and cooperative. From the five of principle
was complete on that statement, because have
combined be comprehensive understanding in the
five pillars of principles.
Rules have a character values and it is requires to
habituation, exemplary, and supportive environment.
Good habituation is obtained from perseverance in
practice, and exemplary can also be showing from
the behaviour of teachers in boarding school, and
supportive environment, will be better under
supervision and avoid negative influences outside
Islamic boarding school. One of the well-known,
Billy Graham (1966) says; when wealth is lost,
nothing is lost. When health is lost, something is
lost. When character is lost, everything is lost. Here
means everyone will get used to the good
habituation. Then at Islamic boarding school does
foreign language, especially English and Arabic
language in speaking daily conversation all days.
The writers choose thesis for quantitative at
Islamic Boarding school of Ibadurrahman for the
fifth grade students, because it help to the students
know their English spaking ability and will be
evaluating on discussion above. The other reason is
because this writers wants to find the new things in
the relationship between daily speaking rules at
boarding school with the students ability on their
speaking.
2 LITERATURE REVIEW
2.1 Speaking Ability
Florez (1999) and Joyce (1997) stated that Speaking
is defined as an interactive process of constructing
meaning that involves producting, receiving, and
processing information. Manser (1995) in Oxford
Leaner’s dictionary speaking defined as:
1) Say things; talk or address about the planning
2) Be able to use language
3) Make a speech
4) Make a known express say the truth
5) Speaking terms known, somebody well enough
to speak to him
6) Speak one is mind express one is opinion
openly
7) Speak for somebody in purposing
8) Give somebody views, etc.
For the definition above, the writers concluded
that speaking is a form of expressing something for
to other people get some information or messages. In
order to make understanding of wishes to another
person. According to Brown (2007) basic of types in
speaking ability were five assessment, there are:
1) Imitative it is simply the ability to parrot back a
word or phrase or a sentence.
2) Intensive it is the production of short stretches
of oral language. Examples include directed
response tasks, reading aloud, sentence and
dialogue completion, limited picture-cued tasks.
3) Responsive is the tasks include interaction and
test comprehension but at the limited level of
short conversations, standard greetings, small
talk, requests and comments.
4) Interactive is the length and complexity of the
interaction are more in interactive tasks than in
responsive ones. The task sometimes includes
multiple exchanges and multiple participants.
5) Extensive is the tasks include speeches, oral
presentations and story-telling. Its called
monolouge too. Oral interaction from listeners
is eigther highly limited or ruled out all
together.
Speaking ability involves many aspect which can
be analyzed into the elements of speaking skills and
the overal speaking profiency or speaking for
functional purpose. According to Leipzig (2001)
states that speaking requires word recognition,
comprehension, and fluency. It means speaking is
not only daily conversation which be necessary in
our life, but also be ability to understand the content.
In addition, a lot of information quickly, accurately
and easily is not able to absorb it without the ability
to understand the content.
To identify the comprehence in the speaking
skill, then it is needed indicators of speaking ability.
the indicators of speaking may help to the teacher
look on their competence in the students speaking
ability. According to Brown (2003), and David
(1969) with the element of speaking ability which
included on the indicators of speaking assessement.
The Influence of Daily Speaking Rules towards the Students’ Speaking Ability at the Eleventh Grade of Islamic Boarding School
27
The indicators of speaking are generally recognized
in analysis of speech process;
1) Pronounciation, it is the act of manner of
pronouncing something, articulate utterance. It
is used for full communicative competence
which phonomes and allophones, Rhythm,
stress and intonation as bottom up competence
and simply as the mastery.
2) Vocabulary, it is the context and function words
of language.
3) Fluency, is as simply the ability to speak well,
not so fast and not be slowly. Speed is a factor ,
but it is no means the only or even the most
important one.
4) Grammar, is body of ruler for speaking, writing
and for a given language. Science that to teach
how to speak fluenlty and accuracy.
5) Comprehension, is quite complete at a normal
rate of speech. It is the ability to understand
something, in this speaking ability. in other
means the students should be understanding
what they will talk in their conversation
(Douglash, 2001).
2.2 Daily Speaking Rules
As Kilpatrick and Lickona (1993) realized that there
is a universal moral absolutes which are sourced
from various religious in the world, which he called
“the golden rule” such as telling the truth, helping
people, respect their parents and responsibility. At
Islamic boarding school of Ibadurrahman to
internalize the religious into academic education in
learning process in Foreign language are Arabic and
English speaking more be habitualy in conversation.
At boarding school of Ibadurrahman, speaking in
foreign language is an official introduction in the
fields of education, teaching, and conversation. In
education and teaching, the foreign language is most
influences of introductory appeal in the learning
process. As the for language of conversation, the
students have to speak forein language (Arabic and
English language) as a daily conversation.
In daily speaking rules, Islamic boarding school
of Ibadurrahman also pay attention to the aspects in
the rules of their conversation, they are:
2.2.1 The Mastery of Language
According to Elham (1994) as the Clair at Islamic
Boarding School of Ibadurrahman says in the books
of Khutbatul Iftitah that when the basic of language
have been mastered, then to increase, expand and
deepend of language, God will there will not be too
many difficulties. Then, the mastery of language
especially in speaking ability is more intensive to
explore in teaching and learning process at Islamic
boarding school of Ibadurrahman.
2.2.2 Discipline
Discipline is a characterized by a particular, unique
academic and social style (Strand, 2007). It is
allowing to people will be obidienced on the rules or
vice versa. Discipline is seperates human
accomplisement from human failure. It is what
distinguishes bad from good, and it is all about not
giving up, trying the same right thing over and over
until get it right (Booker, 2003).
2.2.3 Spoken Grammar
Spoken grammar is more important than ever before.
Because that learning is a way to teach with
improving students’ overall fluency in the face to
face conversation. As the state of Cullen and Kuo
(2007) said that unlike writing in English language
that spoken English is usually spontaneous and
unplanned and produced in real time with no
opportunity for editing (Hillard, 2014). That spoken
grammar consist to sic features, they are:
1) Ellipsis
Means is found in both spoken and writen English
omitting items that are apparent, given the imediate
situation. which disapear the words or item in the
complete sentences but does not change the meaning
of the question. Example:
“Do you have any questions?” (No Ellipsis)
“Any Questions?” (Ellipsis-subject and verb
omitted)
2) Heads
Means is a way to introduce and orient listeners to
the topic before giving information on the topic. It is
called to left-dislocation. Example:
The Soccer game last night, it was really exciting”
(with head)
“The soccer game last night was really exciting” (no
head)
3) Tails
It is a comment that are added to the end of a phrase.
It is called to right-dislocation. For example:
“ Our Teacher is really beautiful” (No Tail)
“yeah, she is” (With Tail)
4) Fillers
Are word and utterances like “er”, “well”, “hemm”,
and “umh”. That do not have a specific meaning
rather fill time and allow the speaker together on his
ELITE 2019 - English Linguistics, Literature, and Education Conference
28
tought (Wilis, 2003). In other means is called that
make a pause as to think the next word. Usually the
speaker would be quite or talking by the word for
the suit the words.
5) Backhannels
On the other hand, there are words and utterances
like “uh-huh”, “oh”, “oh-yeah!”, and “I see” that
used to acknowledge what the speaker is saying and
encourage him or her to continue (Stenstrom, 2004).
Using backhannels word is when there is something
make the speaker is agree in their topic and saying
be one word make a sign will be sure and understand
the conversation. Then, using backhannel is the
same of the person agree what they are listening on
the topic conversation be continue.
6) Phrasal Chunks
According to Krishna Murti (2002) Chunks is a
processing makes communication faster, more
effecient and easier for mutual comprehension. That
also think about what to say under the constraints of
real-time conversation. For example:“A bit and a
little bit” “you know and I mean
2.3.4 Drilling
As Senel (2006) states that the technique is very
useful for teaching prununciation, because it can
increase accuracy in pronunciation. That drilling is
not same the meaning with training. Drilling is part
of method which is done repeatedly and the source
of practice. Training is part of drilling and not done
repeatedly. Here, at the Islamic Boarding school of
Ibadurrahman using drilling for increase their
vocabulary mastery. (Khutbatul ‘Arsy, 2017)
They are memorizing some vocabularies
repeatedly. In other hand they make a sentence every
get vocabularies. Here is the drilling technique
where the students will be familiarized with the
language. As the Clair Islamic boarding school
Ibadurrahman, KH. Elawansyah Elham (2000) said
that “make it the right habit and do not justify the
habit.”
2.3.5 Practically
According to Ibnu Khaldun (1332-1406) that he
believes merely memorizing a language does not
ensure profiency and fluency. Accuiring the
language therefore requires constant practice and
understanding. Hence, Practice is also much related
to drilling and how give the act will be good
respond.
As for being disciplined in the language where
the rules of Islamic Boarding School Ibadurrahman
stated, they are;
1. Leave the local language and using by foreign
language it is Arabic and English language as
introduction in teaching learning and daily
activities. If forced to use Indonesian then it is
permissible to whisper.
2. Get rid of shameness and emberassment when
give action in speaking.
3. No problem in saying anything.
4. Foster self-confidence and high awarness.
5. Increasing their ability with drilling and
practically.
6. Have a dictionary, daily conversations’ book,
and notes book for the sentence of vocabulary to
the students.
Basically, the rules made by humans are of
course hiddens intentions from the results of
ambition speculation. It means which presents the
cause and effect on the rules, might be there is a
good consequences of the students ought to
obidience the rules and its will be educating for the
students.
The influence of rules with daily activities has
closely related to Language Education, especially in
English speaking. Because with the speaking is
proves that becomes a symbol of human existance.
According to Clark and Clark (1939) suggests that
every humans’ perspective are influence in the
structure of language, also could affect his behavior.
Besides, at Islamic Boarding school of
Ibadurrahman also holds a relegious argument which
to enforce the rules with a good system that the word
of Allah says in surah Az-Zumar Verse 39
Paragraph said:”They like to listen to words, then
follow what is best among them...” In the word of
Allah aswered that with the existence of the rule
created also for the common good. Then, in learning
process at Islamic boarding school of Ibadurrahamn
is not only attending for academic but here also
attending of rule in spiritual.
3 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
The current study is quantitative research which data
obtained through questionnaire, oral test and
documentations. The subject of this research is the
students of eleventh grade at Islamic boarding
school of Ibadurrahman. It consists 56 students from
31 males students and 25 for the female students. By
using purpossive sampling which different their

class because the system at boarding school is full in
the role of relegion educational. According to
Rasyid Ridha (1865-1935) is bad thing to male and
females blend in one class for learning and it may
demage the moral of the students. Then, the students
must to study until they rich adulhood. That is a way
for the reason to students of Islamic boarding school
of Ibadurrahman which not coeducational class in
teaching learning. For Data Analysis, the collected
data were managing, classifying, describing,
interpreting by Likert Scale, and Scoring by Product
moment Karl Pearson to answer the research
problems formulated.
4 FINDINGS
This research was conducted in correlation between
two variables for seek the influence both them,
which daily peaking rules as the independent
variable (X) and the students’ peaking ability as oral
test the dependent variable (Y).

The writers used statistic calculation of the Pearson
Product Moment formula to analyze the data of daily
speaking rules in the questionaire by (X) variable
and their speaking ability in English language by (Y)
variable. The writers made a table with seven
columns; they were (Respondent), (X), (Y), (XY),
(X²), (Y²), and (Total) sum in values.

Table 3 shows that the column (X) was for
questionnaire score of the sample, column (Y) was
for speaking in oral test score of the sample, column
(XY) was for the results of multiplying score (X)
and (Y), (X²) was for quadrate of each score in
column (X), and (Y²) was quadrate for each score in
column (Y). These are the table of the explanations
above: The sum of daily speaking rules (variable X)
is 2162 and the sum of the speaking ability (variable
Y) is 2210. The sum of multiply score of both
variables (XY) is 190996. The sum of quadrate score
of Rules (X²) is 187800 and the last, the sum of
quadrate of speaking ability (Y²) 197884.

significance 5% is 0.413. The result of data analyzed
was obtained that value of r-score is -0.087. It
indicated that r-score < r-table, in which (-0.087 < -
0.413). It can be seen from that calculation of t

The hypothesis testing was done from the left
side curve. The curve above showed that the t-test is
the area where H0 is accepted and automatically Ha
is rejected. Consequently, there is no significant
relation between students’ daily speaking rules and
their speaking ability at the eleventh grade Islamic

In summary, based on the analysis above, for the
average of data in this research from “r” values is
very low. There is no significant which influences
the students’ daily speaking rules towards their
speaking ability but it is very low by the t-

< and t-
table
is 2.068. Then, for the hypothesis (Ho) is
accepted and the alternative (Ha) is rejected.
5 DISCUSSION
The discussion consists of interpretation of the data
obtained in this research, relation of the data
obtained with the theories from each variable, and
the relation or comparison of this study with the
previous research. The result of the data was
obtained from the 25 students’ eleventh grade at
Islamic Boarding School of Ibadurrahman Teluk
Dalam L3 Blok C Tenggarong Seberang.
Based on the data description above, it can be
interpreted which there is no influence of students’
daily speaking rules with their speaking ability. The
average score (mean) of students’ daily speaking
rules is 86.48 and the students’ speaking ability in
average is good. The mean score of students’
speaking ability is 88.40.
According to the results of the calculation above,
the score of correlation coefficient (ttest) is -0.413. It
shows that the correlation value is on very low level
based on the table XVI. It can be indicated that rules
determines students’ speaking ability but it is not
have correlation both them. By the reason, the rules
are formed in accordance with mutual agreement.
It is a very low score following the rules in daily
activities towards their speaking ability. When the
influence of the rules is at the low level, it because
the rules stand by themselves and it made by mutual
arrangement. In generally, they obey the rules until
it can be forced and turn into compulsion. It will run
to depression but they be able to speaking ability. it
is not give any affect into their speaking.
These cases indicate that there is a negative and
very low correlation between students’ daily
speaking rules and their speaking ability. Based on
the result, the value of the data is negative which
means student who had high score in the
questionnaire got high speaking score. The means
score in the questionnaire is 86.48 and oral test is
88.40. for t-test is 0.413 < and t-table is 2.068. It
means that is so far the rules have no relationship
with the students speaking ability, but have a little
attachment.
6 CONCLUSION
The result of coefficient correlation (𝑟
) is -0.413. It
means that there is negative significant relate the
students’ daily speaking rules with their speaking
ability at Islamic boarding school of Ibadurrahman
Teluk Dalam Tenggarong Seberang. Additionally,
this result (-0.413 < -2.068) in significant level 5%.
It showed that the null hypothesis (H
0
) “there is no
significant correlation between students’ daily
speaking rules and their speaking ability” is
accepted, and the alternative hypothesis (Ha) “there
is significant correlation between students’ daily
speaking rules and their speaking ability” is rejected.
There is a negative significant correlation
between students’ daily speaking rules and their
speaking ability in English at the eleventh grade at
Islamic boarding school of Ibadurrahman Teluk
Dalam L3 Blok C Tenggarong Seberang in academic
year 2018/2019. It means by the the rules is string on
the personal person, and not on one’s ability. When
the rules is applied, then students’ speaking ability
will follow and be named in a process learning. So
far the rules have no relationship to the students
speaking ability, but the rules become a very
important role in language movement.
