The Codes and their frequencies used by the Ambonese students of Petra Christian University in certain domains

This study concerns the codes and their frequencies used by Ambonese
students of Petra Christian University in certain domains: friendship, daily life,
education, and religion domain. The data were taken from a structured interview,
which is based on a questionnaire given to forty Ambonese students in Petra
Christian University. All the respondents were interviewed one by one by the
writer based on the questions in the questionnaire. Furthermore, this study is
supported by Sociolinguistic theories of codes and domain of language use
presented by Janet Holmes. Finally, the writer found out that the Ambonese
students tend to use the Indonesian language in formal domains, like education
and religion. Besides, Ambonese as their mother tongue was mostly used in the
friendship domain while talking about something informal. While, the use of
Suroboyoan as the variety used by the majority people in Surabaya, often used by
students in Petra Christian University, was used when the Ambonese talk or
interact casually with their friends from Surabaya. Furthermore, since the
interaction of Ambonese students in PCU are not limited only to those from the
same ethnic group, but with others from other ethnic groups, the use of
Kupangnesse, Papuans, English, and Jakarta dialect are also applied in certain
domains.
