entertainers in Indosiar television program. Of their unique language behavior,
the writer was interested in analyzing the codes the entertainers used, the
code-switching which occurred in their dialogues, the types of clause of the
code-switching, and the three factors (speaker-hearer, topic, and function)
affecting the code-switching occurrences. To collect the data, she took one
episode of Srimulat show and focused only on the spoken code-switching. She
listened and recorded the whole dialogue. Then, it was divided into ten parts.
The result shows that the codes used are : consultative Indonesian,
casual Indonesian, and Ngoko Javanese. The code-switching utterances
occurrences were mostly affected by speaker-hearer, topic, and function. The
writer concluded that the casual Indonesian (Indonesian sprinkled with Ngoko
Javanese elements) was used dominantly by Srimulat. For the code-switching,
the casual Indonesian - Ngoko Javanese combination occurred frequently in the
form of a pair of independent clauses. The servant was the main character
who uttered the code-switching mostly. The topics used frequently were
family and love. The main function was joking. Obviously, the code-switching
in Srimulat aimed at creating humorous dialogues.
