Furthermore, the analysis of grammatical errors of using temporal conjunction text, the writer found the total error is 177 errors.The highest frequency of error in using temporal conjunction happens in omission. It consist of 157 errors or 88, 70%, on the second place is error in misformation that consist of 18 errors or 10, 16%.

Conclusion

Based on the finding of analysis, the researcher classified the errors in using simple present tense verbs which consist of the lowest is 16errors or 14,28% for addition ,It is about addition of simple present verbs, 23 errors or 20,53% for misordering. It is misordering sentences, 35 errors or 31,25% for misformation, It is misformation in wrong form of the morfem (wrong selection), and the highest 38 errors or 33,92% for omission. They mostly made error in omission characterize by the absence of an item like content morphemes (simple present verb), which must appear in a well-formed utterance. Mostly the error because the student still do not understand the rules in writing simple present verbs that function as imperatives in procedural texts. They are confused in determining the simple verb to determine the command word. Moreover, it is also supported by the lack comprehension of tenses especially about simple present verbs and vocabulary mastery makes students error in writing.

The analysis error of using temporal conjunction on student's writing procedure, the researcher found the most number of errors produced by the students is on omission with 157 errors or 88,70%, followed closely by misformation that consist of 18 errors or 10,16%, The followed failure is placed to addition and misordering, each consist of 1 failure or 1%.

From the number of the errors above, students mostly do mistakes for omission in temporal conjunction while writing procedure text. In using temporal conjunction, the dominant error is omission which mean that the students must understand what kinds of the text will be written in. So that they can pay attention to the steps that must be taken. The most concerned reason, regarding omission errors in students' writing is that they think that using temporal conjunctions in procedural texts is not important. Whereas writing procedures about how to make or do something without using a temporal conjunction can be fatal. The last one is the cause of errors; simple present tense and temporal conjunction made by the students are interlingual and intralingual errors. They use their mother tongues and do not use English formation form.
