Abstract

This research focuses on analyzing the types and functions of code-mixing used by hospitality students in the learning process at SMKN 1 Metro. The purpose of this study is to identify the types of code-mixing that appear in classroom interactions and to describe the functions behind their usage. The types of code- mixing are categorized into three: insertion, alternation, and congruent lexicalization, based on Muysken’s theory. The functions are classified into referential, directive, phatic, and metalinguistic, based on the theory of Muysken.

This research used a qualitative descriptive method. The data were collected through observations and interviews with students of class XI-3 Hospitality. The students’ utterances were transcribed, identified, and then analyzed based on the type and function of code-mixing used during the learning process.

The results show that insertion is the most dominant type used by students, followed by alternation and congruent lexicalization. In terms of function, referential function is most frequently found, as students tend to mix languages when they lack vocabulary in English. Overall, code-mixing is seen as a helpful communication strategy used by students to express their thoughts and understand learning material more easily.

Keywords: Code-Mixing, Hospitality Students, Learning Process, Qualitative Research.
