Abstract
Language plays an important role in the world since language becomes a
means for people to communicate. People from different countries can
communicate each other by using an international language. One of the
international languages is English. In Indonesia, students learn English as a foreign
language. However, most of Indonesian students still have problems in learning
English because English in Indonesia is considered as a foreign language.
Sometimes, English teachers tend to combine Indonesian and English in
order to make the students understand the materials easier. This phenomenon shows
that the teacher is a bilingual due to the teacher’s ability to use more than one
language. In this case, code-switching phenomenon can possibly occur due to the
switch of two or more languages and there is a change of languages made by the
speaker.

analyze what types and what functions of code-switching used by the seventh grade
