In the previous study written by Laurentius Pradipta Yunanda (2016) under the title “Code Switching in Indonesian artist Twitter Tweet” showed that artist’s code switch was a trend. This research exposed that the code switching in the twitter tweets of Indonesian artists were tag-switching, inter-sentential switching, and intra-sentential switching. In addition, the Indonesian artists used the code switching combination in their tweets. Another study under the title “The Different Language Style and Language Function between Students and Teachers in Updating their Status in Facebook Webpage” written by Nurul Adhalia (2011) showed that the student’s language style was casual meanwhile the teacher was used formal. And both of them used expressive function language in their sentence. From those two previous research it seems that code switching was a trend used by our public figure in Indonesia, but there is no later project investigating the impact of the code switching and the language style used by them toward the viewer’s especially the viewers on school age.

This study will elaborate what kinds of code switching and language style used by the hosts of “Breakout” as well as the linguistic impact given by them toward the students of MTs. Milsyaful Ulum at eight grade as the viewers.2. Theoretical Framework 2.2 Bilingualism In the beginning of 19th to the middle  of  the  20th century , a  great  number  of  linguists  seen  bilingualism/ multilingualism as the usage of two or more different languages, and it has a harmful effect  on  human  being’s  logical  and  spiritual  growth” (Wei, 2000). Then some influential work from Weinreich (1953), Mackey (1968),  Ferguson  (1964),  Fishman  (1968),  Gumperz  (1964),  et  al.

,  characters  a  radical change and creates the stage view positively toward bilingulism (Mackey, 2000), (Ferguson, 1977), (Fishman, 2000).  Fishman et. al (1971) in Setiawan (2013) stated that bilingualism may not have the same mastery or equality from the frequency in both language practise. He said that the fluency in bilingualism can be based on what language is mostly used in practice. Furthermore, the expert said that when the language is not often to be used, language proficiency will be decline (Setiawan, 2013). 2.2 Code SwitchingWardaugh (2006) tells that people use a code when communicate with other people.

In addition, Van Herk (2012) shows that speaker use code switching with their own purpose. Furthermore, code switching is seen as the connection within the same speech interchange of texts of speech and belonging to different grammatical system or subsystem (Gumperz). Moreover code switching is defined as the action of changing or shifting from one language, dialect or varieties to another depending on the condition (Asher, 1994)However, in this paper, the types of code switching based on Poplack will be the base of the analysis.

 2.2.1 Types of Code SwitchingIn this study, the researcher used types of code switching based on Poplack (1980). Based on Poplack theory there are three kinds of code switching and it was cited on Romaine (1995), those examples are:a. Tag switching is an activity when the speakers attaches or adds some filler in the sentence.

The speakers adds a word or words in a sentence without changing any grammar rule.b. Inter-sentential code switching: inter-sentential code switching is an utterance where the speakers switches his/her codes in a full sentence or between minimally two sentences.

c. Intra-sentential code switching: it happens where the speakers switch the code within a sentence. The switch is in the form of word, sentence, and phrase. 2.3 Language Style:There are some kinds of language style as written by Martin (2000).  He classified both spoken and written style into five stages (Martin, 2000), such as:a. FrozenThis is a formal style usually used in formal occasion.

The form is fixed and based on standardized language.b. FormalThis is a style stated in formal occasion too or in a meeting. Standard speech with a low tempo speech, perfect technical vocabulary, complex and divergence grammatical structure.
