In recent times, sentiment analysis has become one of the most active research and progressively popular areas in information retrieval and text mining. To date, sentiment analysis has been applied in various domains such as product, movie, sport and political reviews. Most of the previous work in this field has focused on analyzing only a single language, especially English. However, with the need of globalization and the increasing number of the Internet used worldwide; it is common to see the post written in multiple languages. Moreover, in an unstructured content like Twitter posts, people tend to mix languages in one sentence, which make sentiment analysis process even harder and more challenging. This paper reviews the state-of-the-art of sentiment analysis for code-mixed, which includes the detail discussions of each focus area, qualitative comparison and limitations of current approaches. This paper also highlights challenges along this line of research and suggests several recommendations for future works that should be explored.
