abstract: Ambai Language is spoken by people of Yapen Waropen regency in Papua. The implementation of teaching English in Yapen Waropen regency still reflect many problems. One of the challenges comes from the fact that some of English consonants and vowels sound are not found in Ambai Language. Thus, the Yapen Waropen’s Students of English may have problems in pronouncing these speech sounds.

This study attempts to find the answer to the following questions : (1) What difficulties are faced by the Yapen Waropen’s students of English in pronouncing some English phonemes which are not found in Ambai Language ? (2) What are possible reasons of difficulties ? However, the problems above are so broad, and need to be limited. Thus the analysis focuses on the difficulties faced and reasons expressed by the Yapen Waropen’s students of English in pronouncing these English speech sounds  : [@3;], [ð], [θ], [l], [A8;], [C6;], [ɚ],[?3;],[¨»],[;4;],[ə],[;6;], and [?1;]. This study has used purposive sampling involving 12 elementary schools students and junior secondary high schools students.
