Abstract

This research study focuses on the translation of Radio Telephony Communication (RTF) for Indonesian speakers, specifically examining pilot-air traffic controller (ATC) communication in the airspace of Indonesia. The objective is to explore the key phrases utilized in RTF and their accurate translation to facilitate comprehension by Indonesian pilots and ATCs. Through a meticulous case study conducted in Indonesian aviation settings, the challenges encountered in translating these phrases within the RTF context are identified and addressed. The findings reveal the complexities of translating complex sentence structures and technical vocabulary, which often require a combination of literal translation, adaptation, and paraphrasing strategies. The study highlights the importance of understanding the cultural and linguistic nuances of both English and Indonesian languages, as well as the specific context of pilot-ATC communication. By employing appropriate translation strategies, such as adapting certain technical terms to align with Indonesian language conventions while ensuring accuracy and clarity, the translation process can effectively enhance communication effectiveness and safety in pilot-ATC interactions. The results of this study provide valuable insights and recommendations for professionals involved in the translation of RTF in Indonesia, ultimately contributing to the improvement of aviation communication practices.

Abstract

This research was conducted to study the language skills of English teachers of senior high schools in Sragen Regency in composing a journal article for publication in Bahasa Indonesia. This is aimed to see the quality of Bahasa Indonesia skills of the teachers in the article even though they have an English education background and they are English teachers at present. Members of the High School English Teachers Association in the regency were involved in the research. A questionnaire consisting of 45 statements was distributed to the teachers. They were asked to give responses and then the collected responses were analysed to see their language quality related to the process of article production. Furthermore, they were also asked to write a journal article in Bahasa Indonesia, and the collected manuscripts were then analysed for their text structure and text texture. The results show that they do not have good knowledge and language skills in identifying as well as producing texts of certain types. Furthermore, they also got problems positioning what type of text to which part of a journal article. This condition indicates that the teachers still need an upgrading program for their language skills to compose a journal article, and in addition, they need others to give a hand during the process of article writing
