the eighth grade students of SMP Negeri 34 Makassar. This research was
using descriptive method in the quantitative form by collecting the data
from the documentations and observation.
All the data gained in this research was analyzed by using the
formulation of Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient. According
to the result of the analysis and statical calculation, it is found that rxy is
0.893 and rt is 0.404 and 0.515 with the degree of freedom (df=N-nr) is 24.
By comparing the values of rxy and rt, it can be got that rxy is bigger that
the statistic hypothesis states: If ro > rt significance: there is correlation
and H1 accepted. If ro< rt non signification: there is no correlation and H1
id rejected and Ho is accepted. The result of hypothesis is rxy bigger than
rt which means the alternative hypothesis is accepted. Based on this
finding from this study, it can conlcude that having more vocabulary or
