Speaking is a process of how speaker constructs meaning which includes creating and receiving information on an interactive way (Brown, 1994). The meaning and the form are delivered to the hearer depending on the context which also includes the participants, physical environment, and purposes for the speaking.

This might be because some vowels or consonants that English learners have are different. There are some phonemes that are not existed in Bahasa which makes it hard for Indonesian to pronounce.

They tend to pronounce /fɪŋ.dʒər/ instead of /fɪŋ.gər/. The issues look simple but this can affect students ' motivation in learning English especially in improving speaking skill.

King was the leader of the civil rights movement in the United States during the 1950 and 1960. His nonviolent approach to social reform and political activism, characterized by mass marches and large gatherings designed to demonstrate both the widespread acceptance of the tenets of civil rights and the barbarism of those who opposed them, contrasted with the confrontational methods espoused by Malcolm X and the Nation of Islam. King's Letter from Birmingham City Jail (1963) and the 1963 speech in which he declared "I Have a Dream" are considered the written landmarks of the movement.
