CODE MIXING IN “HITAM PUTIH” TALK SHOW

The study deals with the code mixing in Hitam Putih Talk Show Program on Trans 7. The objectives of study were to identify the types of code mixing used, to find out the most dominant type of code mixing used, and to describe the reasons of the code mixing used in the talk show. The data consisted of three episodes of Hitam Putih Talk Show on April – October 2014. The findings show that there were 116 insertions (32, 86%), 149 alternations (42, 2%), 88 congruent lexicalizations (24, 92%). The most dominant type of code mixing was alternation because the host often clarified the guest’s statement to make the audience more understand what the guest said before, so they combined their speech with other language.
