CODE MIXING AND CODE SWITCHING IN “HITAM PUTIH†TELEVISION PROGRAM
Abstract
Language is not merely used to communicate ideas but also to communicate our opinion of others and of ourselves. In communication it happens that people often use more than one language spontaneously and naturally when they communicate to each other. This research is aimed at explaining code mixing and code switching used in narrative and dialogues of “Hitam Putih†television program. Descriptive qualitative method is used to analyze data that are taken by recording some episodes of the program. The data are classified as types, factors that cause, and functions which are analyzed with different theories. Theories from Stockwell are chosen to analyze the types of code mixing and code switching. Theories of William O’Grady and Michael Dobrovolsky are employed to analyze factors that cause. Whereas Hymes’ theories are used to analyze functions of code mixing and code switching used in narrative and dialogues spoken by the host and the guests in “HItam Putih†television program. The findigs show that there are 40 codes consisting of 25 code mixing and 15 code switching. The types found are tag switching, intra-sentential mixing, and inter-sentential mixing/switching. The factors that cause are characterized as questioner, and the functions of code mixing and code switching in “Hitam Putih†Television program are expressive and directive.
Key words: Sociolinguistics, communication, code mixing, code switching, narrative, dialogues types, causes, functions
