    CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background of the Study Everyone knows that language is inseparable from human life. Language is defined as a means of thinking and transferring culture from one generation to another as well as from one nation to another. Language is one of crucial tools of human beings to interact one another. People need language to get information from others. It means that language can be a primary necessity in human life. It has a big role for every people in making good relationship with others. The language may represent the explicit and implicit feelings and thoughts. It can also be described as a vehicle of thought, because through language people can share or deliver what put in mind. In learning and understanding language, people do not only understand the form of language, but also the meaning in it. Through language, people can express their thought, feelings and ideas. The study of language is conducted within the field of linguistics. Linguistics is scientific study of language and involves an analysis language form, language meaning, and language in context. Linguistics is devices that tie sections of a text together, ultimately achieving coherence. Linguistics is multidisciplinary, specialists in many disciplines bring the own expertise to the study of language.
