54 translation but irrelevant. The second, the words had Indonesian translation but
the English words were more popular to used related to the topic of the discussion. The second reason was showing solidarity to build a good relation
with the target readers. Since the InfoKomputer magazine was Indonesian magazine, the language of the magazine was Indonesian language. Meanwhile, the
readers of the magazine were more familiar with several computer field terms in English. In order to show solidarity and build a good relation to the readers, it was
impossible to translate the terms into Indonesian language. The writers of the articles chose to mix the English word with Indonesian word; in this case were
Indonesian prefix and suffix. In this situation, intra-word code-switching was employed. The last reason was quoting somebody. In order to improve reliability
of the news they reported, the writers of the articles kept writing the quotation in its origin language, in this case is English. Therefore, the writers of the article
switched the code from Indonesian language into English.
A. Suggestions
In this part, the researcher would like to give suggestions to the future researchers who are attracted to analyze code-switching phenomenon which occur
in the magazines. The future researchers may conduct research on code-switching phenomena in the magazines in wider scope. For instance, the future researchers
may compare code-switching phenomena in some different magazines. Thus, the future researchers can obtain the similarities and differences of code-switching
cases which occur in more than one magazine. The future researchers may also
55 find the readers’ opinion on the code-switching phenomena. Thus, the future
researchers can obtain whether the code-switching phenomena which occur in the magazine help or obstruct them in learning English. If it is possible, the future
researcher may obtain the opinion from the writers of the articles on why they switch the code. Since, nowadays there are many ways to communicate with the
writers of the articles, for instance using twitter, e-mail, facebook, or other tools. Thus, the future researchers can obtain more data in determining the possible
reasons of code-switching phenomena.
