Abstract

Audiovisual translation constitutes a critical site of intercultural mediation, particularly when films convey culture-specific meanings across linguistically and socially distinct audiences. This study investigates the negotiation of Indonesian cultural identity in the Arabic subtitle translation of Habibie & Ainun. Employing a qualitative descriptive design with comparative and interpretative analysis, the study examines Indonesian dialogue units containing culture-specific references and their corresponding Arabic subtitles. The data were collected through audiovisual observation, transcription, coding, and classification based on social, material, and religious cultural domains. The findings demonstrate that cultural identity negotiation is most pronounced in social-cultural expressions, including honorifics, kinship terms, colloquial expressions, idioms, and interpersonal politeness markers. These items were frequently rendered through pragmatic equivalence, cultural substitution, modulation, and domestication to preserve relational meaning and target-language naturalness. Material-cultural references, such as domestic objects, spatial expressions, and technological terms, were more often translated through literal or descriptive equivalence because their referents were relatively accessible within the Arabic cultural framework. Religious expressions showed the lowest degree of cultural resistance due to shared Islamic linguistic and theological roots, although contextual modulation remained necessary in emotionally charged utterances. The study concludes that Arabic subtitling of Habibie & Ainun functions not as a mechanical linguistic transfer but as a culturally situated process of meaning negotiation. The findings underscore the role of subtitle translators as intercultural mediators who balance Indonesian cultural visibility with Arabic audience comprehensibility.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role of a multilingual environment in the acquisition of Arabic as a second language at Pondok Modern Arrisalah Ponorogo. The multilingual environment, which involves the use of Arabic, English, and Indonesian, represents an interesting linguistic phenomenon to be examined from the perspective of second language acquisition. This research employs a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation, involving students, Arabic language teachers, and language coordinators as research participants. The findings indicate that the multilingual environment at Pondok Modern Arrisalah is systematically developed through language policies, structured language programs, and the habituation of language use in students’ daily lives. This environment plays a significant role in supporting the acquisition of Arabic, particularly through the intensity of language exposure, social interaction, and continuous communicative practice. The presence of other languages does not entirely hinder the process of Arabic acquisition; rather, in certain contexts, it functions as scaffolding that helps students understand and strengthen their linguistic competence. The main supporting factors include the consistency of language policies, teachers’ role modeling, and students’ motivation, while the inhibiting factors include differences in students’ linguistic backgrounds, low self-confidence among some learners, and the influence of non-target language use
