Abstract

This study discusses the form and function of code-switching and code-mixing used by the teacher in teaching listening skills to the Intermediate 3 students at LBPP-LIA Bekasi. The phenomenon of implementing code-switching and codemixing codes does not only occur in multilingual societies but also in the foreign language learning process in the classroom where teacher and students use two different languages. The strategy of using code-switching and code-mixing is expected to facilitate foreign language students particularly in learning how to listen where the teacher and students engage in interaction using the language that students are learning. Qualitative method is used to analyze data. From the results of data analysis, it was revealed that the teacher often switches codes when teaching listening skills for both code- switching from English to Bahasa and vice versa. The teacher also mixes the code in the form of morphemes, words, phrases, and clauses. The aim of the teacher to change and mix codes in teaching can be seen from the functions of using code-switching and code-mixing. The confirmation function, for example, is used by the teacher so that students do not misunderstand the topic learned. Other functions also have different objectives to facilitate students learning how to listen in English interactively in the classroom.

This paper comprises the production of the Type Token which use editorial articles authored on the exact day in two dominant newspapers from the UK and the US as representatives of UK inner circle nations, two sources from UK outer-circle countries, newspapers from Malaysia and Singapore, and two online newspapers from Indonesia and Thailand as representatives of English For Foreign Language states. The study was based on Laufer and Nation's (1995) vocabulary theory, which highlights the creation of most frequency words lists (K1 and K2 words) and low-frequency word lists (AWL and Off-list words).  The methods used were by uploading text into a vocabulary profiler tool, such as Lexical Frequency Profile (LFP) or a free accessed online platform built by Tom Cobb at http://www.lextutor/ca/vp. The results show that the average number of tokens of off-list words in ESL texts is more diverse rather than in Native and EFL English countries.
