Analysis Video 


The video is from Leonardo Edwin’s youtube channel. He is from Indonesia that study in America. I choose his content that has a tittle “Tur Asrama Kampus di Amerika (Bellevue College Dorm Tour)”. For the content of video. The video describes how the culture. He shows how the situation on the college dorm. In this video, there are four people, Leo and his friends; Moe, Olphelia and Chiriro.   

Then, I do a analysis of his content video based on sociolinguistics aspects. What the sociolinguistics aspects on his video. On that video, he uses two language, it is indonesian and english language. So he can use thean one language. He is bilingualisme, Indonesian is his native and english is his second language. He uses English when he talks with his friends, sometimes he uses Indonesian for the viewers. But, he puts the Indonesian subtitle for his viewers, because most of his viewers are from Indonesia too.

In additional, the way Leo talks and his friends talk is different, because of their gender. Leo’s voice is more strong than the girls. The girls is more smooth when they speaks. The gesture also is different between them. They are in same age, Leo and his friends. So, how they speaks to each other is more informal.   

When he talks, his accent is American accent. On that video he is always switching or mixing his language for communication. So there is code switching and code mixing on that content. Some of his friend too are not from America, so they all use english as native language for their communication. On that video also has language shift aspect, because he changes his native language (Indonesia) for communication to his friends.

The example of the code mixing and code switching :

On the first video, he uses Indonesian language as introduction, the he switch to English when he asks his friends. So sometimes, he uses English for his friends and sometimes he uses Indonesian for the viewers. Moreover, he said dormnya, when he speaks Indonesian language.

Here is some conversation on the video :

The conversation

    (1)   
  Leo: kita bakal kelilingin dorm nya, jadi kita bakal review asrama di Amerika itu kayak  gimana sih. Apakah boleh cewek cowok bareng? 
  Leo: jadi kita ada di depan dormnya . What is this place?
   His friends: pizza place

    (2)   
 Leo: we have a lot of vending machines. American favorite coke. Ada yang khusus starbucks nih guys.
    Leo      : where we go next?
 His friends : laundry

    (3)   
    Leo : no living room
    Chiriro : so small 
 Leo : jadi ngga ada ruang tamunya guys

    (4)   
    Leo  : which is your bed
    Olphelia : this is my bed
    
    (5)  
  Moe: this is where place we always make a video
   Leo: make a video, jadi kita buat video disini guys.


Conclusion

To conclude, on the video there are several aspects or elements of sociolingustics. Those include code mixing, code switching, social accent, the language varieties, language choice, gender, and age. Leo is bilingualism based on the video and he uses English for communicate. He is Indonesian native language.
