To the sample of this research, intake sampling technique was implemented. There were 72 students as a sample from class X.7 and X.8. Correlation, regression, and normality tests were used to analyze the data, which were taken from students' writing ability and vocabulary mastery tests. The results showed that the mean score in the writing ability test was 77.15, with a minimum score of 70, a maximum score of 91, and a standard deviation of 4.902, while the mean score in the vocabulary mastery test was 76.87, with a minimum score of 29, a maximum score of 97, and a standard deviation of 17.898. The significant coefficient between writing ability and vocabulary mastery was.802 higher than the alpha value of 0.05. it means that vocabulary mastery and writing ability was not correlated. At that point, the correlation coefficient was.030, which placed it in the poor group. Subsequently, regression analysis revealed that the output data's correlation value (R) was.066 and its coefficient of determination (R Square) was.004. One could conclude that the contribution of language mastery on writing skill was only 0.04%. It indicates that writing ability and vocabulary mastery both contributed to and interacted with one another. In conclusion, the findings indicate that students who have high vocabulary mastery does mean that they would be also have good in writing ability.
