AN ANALYSIS OF USING CODE MIXING IN SPEAKING ENGLISH AT
IAIN BUKITTINGGI
Introduction
Nowdays
the code mixing is urgently needed in the learning process for English
students. Researchers are interested in taking the case “An Analysis of Using
Code Mixing in Speaking English at IAIN Bukittinggi” because the need for a
code mixing is especially in the learning process such as presentation papers
by English education students from the first semester to sixth semeseter at
IAIN Bukittinggi, to what extent the process needed a code mixing when
presenting the material because not all the students were present to interpret
with the material full English. So, students to understand using the boarding
method so the code mixing is used.
Furthermore,
students have many problem in speaking English even though they have studied in
elementary school, junior high school, and senior high school. The problem is
like they can not use English in full. Their ability to speak English is also
due to the lack of vocabulary they have, so they often use mixing English
vocabulary codes that they do not know by replacing them using local languages.
This problem allows students to break the rules for full English, but there are
still some of them retaining their English without mixing language codes
together with the ability to speak. So, if students still often use mixing
language codes, that means their ability to speak English is low.
Code
mixing is mixing language to another language in which one is dominant while
speaking (here as the presenter) with the aim of clarifying meaning and
expending the action or style of language as well as the variety of languages.
The code mixing divides into two parts of which Innercode mixing[1]
such as normative-innormative and formal-informal situations. Outer code mixing[2]
it is usedin college presentations besides English, English student tends to
use a few words that replace the original (Indonesia) word into English.
So, it
could have been a study in which researchers were able to identify problems
that existed in IAIN Bukittinggi especially in the English Education Department
about the code mixing when presented in speaking English. Where the students
using the code mixing are supposed to be able to avoid using the mixing code
continiously.
