A Study of code mixing in the utterances produced by the broadcaster of radio EBS in "Asian Tracks" Program

This study is a sociolinguistics study about code-mixing utterances
produced by the broadcaster of Era Bima Sakti Selaras (EBS) FM in "Asian
Track" program. The writer is interested in investigating code mixing because
Indonesian community is bilingual or multilingual society that is why people who
live in bilingual community have a tendency to use two codes or more when they
communicate to each other in order to maintain and establish relationship with
other people. The writer focuses on her study only on the broadcaster?s utterances
because the broadcaster plays an important role in the program. The writer
chooses radio EBS FM because the writer knows that there are code-mixings in
EBS FM especially on "Asian Track" program and it is one of the favorit
programs among the teenagers. In this research, the writer tries to analyze the
factors which affect the code-choice. The aim of this thesis is to identify the code-mixing
utterances, and the occurrences of code-mixing in the "Asian Track"
program. The writer?s study only focuses on the language mixing, especially
Indonesian language as the main code. The writer refers to the theory of code and
code mixing by Wardhaugh. The writer used qualitative approach in order to get
the accurate data. The writer finds there are six kinds of code-mixing utterances,
Indonesian-Javanese (I-J), Indonesian-English (I-E), Indonesian-Chinese (I-C),
Indonesian-Javanese-English (I-J-E), Indonesian-Javanese-English-Chinese
(I-J-E-C), and Indonesian-Javanese-Chinese (I-J-C). Code-mixing utterances,
which frequently occurs is Indonesian-Javanese (I-J) with the percentage of
occurrences 48%. In conclusion, code mixing in the utterances of the broadcaster
that happens in this program may occur due to the fact that the broadcaster wants
to get closer relationship with the listener to make conversation become more
relaxed.
