            Human is very different creature compared to other creatures. Human beings are social creatures among the others. God gives human being with thought and feeling. As human being, they always interact with other persons. To have this interaction they need language to gain a communication.

Language is the most important tool in the relationship between person to person in a social group, community and society. Kramsach (1983: 3) notes that language is the principal means whereby people conduct their social lives. In everyday life people use language for different purposes. Beside for communication, language is also used for negotiation, introduction and socialization. In other words, communication cannot be separated from language and society.

The correlation between language and society is learned in sociolinguistics. Wardhaugh (2000: 12) states Sociolinguistics concerns with investigating the relationship between language and society, with the goal of being a better understanding of the structure of language and how language functions in the communication. The definition above can be inferred that language and society is so closely related.

In society, people use many kinds of language varieties that describe the changes in situational factors, such as address, setting and topics. Each occupational group or social or social group has the difference of specific vocabularies associated. Therefore, each group has a different register, for example in caving division of an adventure team.
