INTRODUCTION

1.1Background of the study

Language has existed as long as the existence of human being, and it is used by human being to communicate both in oral or written form. Itis a medium for human being to do an interaction from either between personal and group or a group and another group.Besides,Language is used to convey our aim or ideas. According to Moulton (1978:3), “The ability of Human beings to talk-to use language in order to communicate with one another-is so universal and seems so natural that most of us never bother to think much about it”. Based on the statement above,people have used the language for many aspects in their daily activities such as business, education, and other social communication.

Human do communication to their relation frequently by using one or more languages spontaneously or naturally when they communicate each other. Spontanous language that they use sometimes give effect to the environment where they are living. The changing of language can occure almost in every daily conversations, news, magazines, newspapers, articles, and novels. There are many phnomenons that we can find in our society use code mixing and code switching which are part of sociolinguistics.

Sociolinguistics is a branch of linguistics that study is about social language, characteristic and functions of language in community. Sociolinguistics is a study of language using and language changing in society.Sociolinguistics is formed by from word socio and linguistics. Socio is a basic word of society, that is a group of people who live together in one area and they have same purposes.

Therefore, Code mixing is a part of sociolinguistics that studies about using other elements such as words or phrases in conversation. It is usually used by a person who is able to use two or more languages because thereis no match expression in the language which is being used, so it is necessary to use word expression from another laguage.The usage of code mixing and code switching in the developing country is an alternative to build up links to many people because it is not necessary to learn the structure to talk and how the system of talking is used.

Commonly, code mixing is traited by marking the relationship between the role and function. The role means who is using the language, while the language function means the purposeof the speaker talk.As Fasold (1984:208)agrees that people speak to another using one language of element. Sometimes, people use code mixing in their conversation based on the situation and always in the context :

Bejo : “cong, lu jadi kan ikut gue ntar siang?”

Tejo : “aduh... broh... gue gx bisa pastiin soalnya gue stuck sama tugas install ape pe es (apps) gue nii...”

Bejo : “wah.... kebetulan tuuh kan lagi gathering bahas tentang perkembangan software, jadi bisa nanya2 sama speaker nya ntar”

Based on Bejo and Tejo’s conversation,the word stuck, install, gathering and speaker are taken from English Language and then they mix with Indonesian Language. Itshows that they are using code mixing and the context of it is structured due to the same perspective between two speakers. Sometimes, the structure component of language is connected to the word, phrase, clause in the sentence.

The use of code mixing in Indonesian People daily life is quite usual even in any kind of public events. The use of code mixing may be found in many ways that makes the society really accustomed with if whenever seeing or facing with people around. Children as young generation of our society are the main consuments to acknowledge this kind of phenomenon.

Based on the explainations above, the writer assumes that code mixing is a language that is expressed in utterances in speaking which are related to the speech context. Code itself is a form of language variation that is used by a society to do communication with people.
