Furthermore, the collected data were analyzed by using Ho’s theory, Myusken’s theory, Hoffman’s theory, Hockett’s theory, and Saville-Troike’s theory. Based on data analysis, the result of the study showed that Lexical Word was the most frequently used by the student, with a total number of 41 (33%) from 142 occurrences. Meanwhile, talking about a particular topic was the most reason underlying student in using code-mixing on Facebook by 12 (27%) of the subject picked.
