Abstract

This present study discusses the attitude of the third semester students of the department of hotel management of Dhyana Pura University Bali towards the English language. It is intended to explain: a) the speech attitude of the third semester students of the department of Hotel Management of Dhyana Pura Bali towards the English language, and b) the factors which contribute to the speech attitude of the third semester students of Dhyana Pura University Bali towards the English language. It was conducted based on the theory of speech attitude as part of the theory of sociolinguistics. It is a descriptive qualitative study. The data were collected through observation and interview. The information on the speech attitude of the students was obtained through observation. The interview was divided into two; they are the open interview and the structured interview in which questionnaire was used. The interview was performed in order to obtain the factors which contributed to the students’ speech attitude. The result of analysis showed that the speech attitude of the students towards the English language tended to be positive. However, their writing skill tended to be less positive, as shown by the fact that what they could write did not match the standard English grammar they had learned. The factors contributing to their speech attitude can be divided into two; they are the internal and external factors. The internal factors included a) their understanding of the fact that the speech attitude towards the English language needed a serious learning process; b) the extent to which they liked English. The external factors included the cognitive, affective and conative aspects which could not be separated from the campus environment which supported the speech attitude towards the English language, and to what extent society could accept the students’ speech attitude towards the English language.
