Many names have been given to this island such as: Island of the God, Land of Thousand Temples, and Heaven Island. Bali Island is also well known as an island rich in cultures, beautiful Balinese dances, and magnificent landscape panorama from the top hill down to the sea is one of the potential tourist destination because of it‟s beautiful views, traditional costumes and culture.

In Kuta there are so many hotels, bars, pubs,cafes, restaurants, malls, and art shops, which are visited by tourists to entertain themselves. The favorite place in Kuta is the beach. Kuta beach is known by tourists becauseof the beauty of the sand and beach. Beside, the tourist also can enjoy the spectacular sunset. Kuta naturally gives an effect for the economy to the people around Kuta to be the art shop attendants. The art shop attendants always offer their souvenirs like: handicrafts, silver jewelries, wood carvings, statues, paintings, bags, leather craft, summer dresses, beach wears, Balinese sarongs, postcards, accessories and many more to be enjoyed by visitors. At the art shop we can find some languages used for communication, this occurred since the visitors came from several countries, and mostly English as one of the international languages is used in their communication. As art shop attendants in Kuta, English is very important for them, because most of the visitors who come to Bali usually use English in their communication. Sometimes their English cannot be understood by the tourists because of some reasons. The reason could be their mother tongue and their educational condition. Besides that, the influence of their mother tongue made their English ungrammatical. They learn English from their friends or heard their friends speak to the foreigners. The miss communication commonly happened because they did not understand the meaning of the words which were said by the tourists. The art shop attendants also translated some expressions into their mother tongue that they should have translated into Standard English. But by their ability and skill they can offer their souvenir confidently. To offer their souvenir, they used English to communicate with tourists, for examples: - Art shop attendant :Hello, Morning, Morning price for you sir. Tourist : Good Morning. - Art shop attendant : Looking- looking, mom? Tourist : No, thank you. The first underlined expression above belongs to the greeting function, because this expression was used to greet the tourist. And the second underlined expression above belongs to the inviting someone function, The aim of the art shop attendants in giving the expression like that is to invite the tourist to buy their goods. In this case we can say that the English is used for communication and based on the illustration above I am interested in analyzing about the English used by art shop attendants in Kuta Area.
