This research discussed the code-switching phenomenon in the Coco movie. This
research aimed to discover the types, functions, and reasons for code-switching in
the Coco movie. The data obtained were in the form of phrases, utterances, and
sentences. The data were obtained after watching the movie and reading the
transcript of the movie. Then from all available data, the researcher selected the
data only those that have code-switching. The selected data classified based on the
types of code-switching, functions of code-switching, and reasons for code-
switching. For the types of code-switching, this research used Poplack's (1980)
theory, Koziol's (2000) theory for functions of code-switching, and Hoffman's
(1991) theory for reasons of code-switching. The researcher found 104 code-
switching in the Coco movie. The type of code-switching that most often used was
tag switching with 64 times of occurrences, and the least used is inter-sentential
switching with four occurrences. As for the functions of code-switching, from 14
existing functions, the Coco movie used only nine functions. The most frequently
used code-switching functions were emphasis function and designation function
with 29 occurrences, and the least used were the reiteration function and parenthesis
function with each one occurrence. As for the reasons for using code-switching, the
reason most often used was expressing group identity with 39 occurrences, and the
least used was repetition with only one occurrence.
