Theoretical Basis. A theory is used to support a scientific work. The theoretical basis used in this paper is taken from some references relevant books that are taken from some experts. Because the theory is important in making a scientific writing (paper), in writing this paper, I also use theory. The theory applied for the writing of this paper is the theory of language function, especially English functions which is primarily taken from Xxxx Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, and Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx. 1987 Oxford University Press in the book entitled Function in English. Related to the function of a language, Xxxxxxxx says, as follow: “Language functions are the purpose for which people speak or write. You can say that everything we do, including using language, has purpose. When we switch the radio or television on, for example, our purpose is to be amused or entertained, or to find something out. In the same way, we only speak or write with a purpose mind: to help someone to see our point of view, perhaps, or to ask their advice, or to reach agreement with them. We call these purposes the function of language. Every language, including your own, has such function in different ways. In this book you will find some of the ways English people use of the express various functions. So under the function Greeting people, for example, you will see expression like „Good Morning‟, „Good Afternoon‟, „Hello!‟, „Hi!‟, and under Saying goodbye you will find „Bye-bye‟, „See you‟ and so on. Altogether, over 300 such expressions have been collected together, under 140 functional headings.(Blundell, 1987 : v)
Theoretical Basis. In order that a paper which we produce can be scientific, its writing must be based on theory. If the theory is not applied or used, the paper which we produce must be not believable to its readers. Because theory is important to use in writing a paper, so in the writing of this paper, I also use it. The theory applied for the writing of this paper is the theory of the language function, especially English Function, which is primarily taken from the book entitled Function in English. Xxxxxxxx in his book of Function in English stated that: Language functions are the purposes for which people speak or write. You can say that everything we do, including using language, has a purpose. When we switch the radio or television on, for example, our purpose is to be amused or entertained, or to find something out. In the same way, we only speak or write with a purpose in mind; to help someone to see our point of view, perhaps, or to ask their advice, or to reach agreement with them. We call these purposes the function of language. Every language, including your own, has such function in different ways. In this book you will find some of the ways the English people use to express the various functions. So under the function Greeting people, for example, you will see expressions like Good morning, Good afternoon, Hello!, Hi!, and under Saying goodbye you will find Bye- bye, See you and so on. Altogether, over 3000 such expressions have been collected together, under 140 functional headings (Blundell, 1987 : 65). Besides from this primary book reference, the second theory about the language functions, especially the concepts of the English functions, are also taken, for example from Xxx Xxxxx‟ English Function, he stated: What are you trying to do with your English? Are you describing something, persuading someone, giving your opinion or what? These are called functions (Xxxxx, 1981 : 1). Beside this theory, the other theory which is also applied for analyzing the functions of English expressions used by the receptionists of this hotel is the theory on the language form that is primarily taken from Xxxxx Xxxxxx‟s and Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxx‟s Speaking Naturally. In this reference, Xxxxxxx and Xxxxxx say : In English we tend to use formal speech with strangers and people of higher status, and informal speech with family, friend, and colleagues (Xxxxxx, 1985 : 20) In order that the analysis of this problem is more scientific and deeper, the theoretical concepts of the langua...

Theoretical Basis. System A system is a collection of interrelated elements that work together to achieve specific goals (Dr. Ir. Suradi, ST., 2022). It consists of input, processing, and output. To understand a system, it is essential to understand each element that makes it up. Information is data or facts that are arranged systematically, have value, or provide understanding. An information system is explained as a unity of physical and non- physical subsystems that work together in harmony to process data into useful information.
