Abstract

Nowadays, people communicate with their interlocutors in many languages. It aims to avoid misunderstandings, ambiguity and to help the interlocutor understanding the speaker‟s intention. This is supported by technological advances that facilitate public access to get to know many people from various countries, cities, and other tribes. English as a global language will facilitate the access of many people to communicate so that English is a language that many people learn. This allows a bilingual person to use code-switching when talking to other bilinguals to facilitate their conversion process. Therefore, the phenomenon of code-switching is an interesting topic to discuss. This research aims to find the types of code-switching used in the videos and to describe the reasons that influence the speakers to use code-switching in the videos. In conducting this research, the researcher used a qualitative descriptive method to analyze the data. Descriptive analysis was applied in collecting the data of this research. The data were taken from two selected Boy William's youtube videos: Nebeng Boy programs and were analyzed using the types of code- switching and reasons for using code-switching theory proposed by Hoffman (1991). The data of this research are the utterances from the video transcriptions. The video transcription was analyzed to identify the types and reasons for code- switching. Finally, the identified results show the contribution of code-switching and a pie chart showing the dominant types and reasons for code-switching in the two selected 'Nebeng Boy videos'. The researcher found inter-sentential switching, intra-sentential switching, and tag switching in the video. The results of this study indicate that the intra- sentential code-switching type is the dominant type that appears in the video with 64 utterances. This shows that the speakers in the video more often use code- switching in one sentence. The researcher also found talking about a particular topic to be the most dominant reason for using code-switching with 33 utterances about why speakers use code-switching when they communicate. The speakers feel more comfortable switching their languages when talking about a particular topic because they can freely express their emotions.
