The data collection procedure involves conducting a written test using data cards and a data sheet. The accuracy of the translations is calculated based on the percentage of accurately translated meanings. The findings of this research indicate that both Google Translate and DeepL Translate provide translations that are considered less accurate. This statement is based on the finding of accuracy occurrence  DeepL Translate outperforms Google Translate with a higher percentage. Specifically, DeepL Translate achieves an accuracy rate of 73.1%, while Google Translate lags slightly behind at 63.4%.
