Abstract

Nowadays, almost all people are bilingual; it means that almost all of them are able to speak more than a language. This phenomenon happens as a result of living in a multicultural society, like in Indonesia. There are various cultures and languages in the country, one of which is Teo Chew language. However, there are only limited numbers of people who know the language; therefore, the speakers are minority in Indonesia. This condition makes them learn other languages besides their mother tongue to be able to communicate in the society; this situation may cause them to do code switching. This thesis analyzes the Teo Chews’ reasons of doing code switching, their perception on the code switching reasons, and the kinds of code switching which are used in Teo Chew people conversations in the Teo Chew People Association in Semarang. The writer collects the data from the recording of the Teo Chews’ conversations and also the questionnaires distributed to them. The analysis of the recording suggests that the Teo Chews do more intrasentential code switching than inter-sentential code switching. The questionnaires distributed show that most of Teo Chew people also use the reasons of doing code switching based on the theory; however, the speakers of Teo Chew have different perceptions for each reason of code switching. There are 8 reasons of code switching which are used by the Teo Chews, to avoid ambiguity, to create a repair strategy, to express the solidarity, to show referential meaning, to refer to a certain topic, to show an affective function, to exclude others from a certain conversation, and to create a humorous effect.
