Further, the subject of the study is ten students of English Education Study Program in the fifth-semester. The two types of synonym, namely strict and loose are examined to find out both the appropriate and inappropriate synonyms in students' paraphrasing (Jackson, 1986). The findings reveal that students' paraphrasing is still categorized poor because of distorted meaning by the unsuitable synonym in context.
