Abstract

A speech community is a group of people connected by using the same language and shared norms, values, and experiences. Those factors shape how people use and interpret language. This study aims to investigate how Morse code functions as part of the speech community within the scouting community, explore its use in communication among scouts, and examine how scouts learn, apply, and interpret Morse code in various scouting activities, focusing on its role in communication and how scouts learn, apply, and interpret it in various activities. Data collection is done using a form that must be filled out by the participants who are currently in college and part of the scouts' community. The researcher used a descriptive qualitative method. Based on the research result, shows that the Morse code used among Scouts is a form of speech community identity. Scout members very often use Morse Code in scout activities to keep information private in emergencies or dangerous situations. Scout members often used a flashlight or whistle to deliver the message with Morse code. Scout members learn how to apply and interpret through formal or informal training.

Abstract

Bilingualism is a linguistic phenomenon characterized by the use of two languages in everyday life. In a bilingual context, communication practices often give rise to the phenomena of code switching and code mixing as language strategies. Code switching is understood as the practice of alternating between languages in discourse, while code mixing entails the incorporation of components from different languages into one utterance without an entire switch of language. A descriptive qualitative method was utilized in this study to analyze the observed phenomena. The research data was obtained from a video podcast by Maudy Ayunda and Jovial da Lopez entitled Dating Tips: 'Jangan Dikit-Dikit Putus". The data collection technique was carried out by watching and transcribing all the utterances in the video, then identifying and grouping the utterances that contained code switching and code mixing. Data analysis emphasized the process of identification, grouping, and interpretation of linguistic data. This study aims to investigate and understand the functions and roles of code switching and code mixing in conveying information, shaping audience perceptions, and representing the speaker's social identity. The results show that code mixing is more dominant than code switching, with alternation being the most common form. These findings indicate that the use of two languages plays a role in clarifying meaning, emphasizing messages, and creating a flexible and natural communication style in casual conversations on digital media.
