Choosing A Code: Group 3: Ayu Firmala Sari Gesa Sepritiani Mulia Agustin

The document discusses several linguistic concepts including diglossia, bilingualism, multilingualism, code choice, code switching, and code mixing. Diglossia refers to a stable language situation with a primary dialect and a more complex superposed variety. Bilingualism is defined as a speaker's ability to use two languages well. Multilingualism involves communities with multiple languages that form through migration, colonization, federation, or in border regions. Code choice indicates how a speaker wants to be perceived, and controlling multiple codes provides advantages. Code switching alternates between languages in discourse, while code mixing incorporates different languages below the clause level.
