on the forms of permission expressions that occur in English Club 1 classes in
Global English Training course. The writer observes two English Club classes at
GET, which become the source of data. The writer uses the Dart?s classification of
permission forms and the theory from Putsey (1994) and Bing (1989). The writer
also analyzes the correct and incorrect use of permission forms. It is hoped that
this study can help Indonesian learners to use the correct forms of permission
expressions with correct grammars and be able to express permission with suitable
forms and situations. The writer identifies the forms of permission and the error
use of permission forms based on the Dart?s and Putsey?s theories. This study
applies the descriptive approach because the writer describes all the data in
descriptively way. The writer also calculates the forms of permission expressions
that occur most frequently. Moreover, the writer also calculates the correct and
incorrect use of permission in table and their percentages. The result of the
analysis shows that the modal auxiliary may is the most revealed in this study.
Almost all the learners in GET like to use may when they are asking for
permission. While, the use of please never occur in this study, even in the
imperative sentences. Whereas, the use of please in permission expressions will
make it sounds more polite. Overall, the use of may and can is still the most
frequently used in Indonesian learners for asking for permission.
