This research objective is to categorize and finding various types of coordinating conjunctions as well as their syntactic structures in Mark Twain’s novel The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. The data source from this study was a novel by Mark Twain titled “The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn”. By reading the book several times, noting the coordinating conjunctions, and categorizing the data in the novel according to the various categorize, and this study used the qualitative method with the data and observation technique. To convey the results both formal and informal methods was used, the informal method provides descriptive explanation of the coordinating conjunction types, whereas the formal method used a tree diagram to visually represent and illustrate syntactic structures of sentences. This research using theory from Quirk et al., (1985)[8] which provides an in-depth explanation of syntax to describe types of coordinating conjunctions and using from Brown and Miller (1991) [1]theory to examine the compound sentences' syntactic structure related to tree diagrams. The theory focuses on the structural representation of sentences using tree diagrams to illustrate syntactic relationships. Using these theories can help us to understand the sentence structure more clearly.The result of this study shown that are five coordinating conjunctions identify in the novel The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, consisting with conjunctions “For” with 4 instances (1.76%), “And” 154 instances (67.85%), “But” 51 instances (22.46%), “Or” 2 instances (0.88%), and “So” 16 instances (7.05%).

This study is entitled “An Analysis of flashback plot in the Inception Movie.” Movie Inception by Christopher Nolan as the objects of the research. The aims of this study were (1) to describe the plot arrangement of the Inception movie and (2) to describe the type of the plot in the Inception movie. This study used the theory proposed by Holman (1980) to conduct this study. Descriptive and qualitative method were used in this study, in order to collect the data. Such as downloading the movie from the internet, watching and listening to the movie throughly, classifying various fragments of sentences, dialogues, and scenes. Then, examine, analyze, and interpret these fragments in order to understand the plot structure according to the theory. The results reveal that the plot structure of "Inception" includes three main parts: the beginning, middle, and end. The middle part stands out due to its complex problems, which make the story more engaging while still entertaining. Moreover, "Inception" is characterized as a flashback plot structure, with key elements including exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and catastrophe.

This study concerns with the code switching found in Najwa Shihab YouTube channel. The aims of this study are; (1) to find out the types of code switching found in selected video on Najwa Shihab YouTube channels; and (2) to analyze the reason of code switching found in Najwa Shihab selected videos. Descriptive qualitative method was used for analyzing the data from three selected videos. The theory was applied are from Poplack (as cited in Romaine, 1989) to classify the types of code switching and theory proposed by Hoffman (1991) to identify and analyze the reasons of code switching. The results presented three types of code switching and seven reason for code switching were found. Intra-sentential switching is the most dominant types of code switching found in those three selected videos and the most dominant reason found in the three selected videos is talking about a particular topic.
