Abstract

Translation is a process to render the meaning from the source text into the target text. A translator, however, will find some problems during translation process. Equivalence is the case which often appears (i.e. culture specific concept, the source-language concept is not lexicalized in the target language, source-language word is semantically complex, etc). To cope with equivalnce problems in translation process, some experts suggest some strategies which can be applied in doing translation. Some strategies are transference, naturalization, cultural equivalent, etc. The strategies which often appears in the example texts in this paper are transference, naturalization, descriptive equivalent, couplet and  through-translation. It is recomended that translator apply the strategies if only there is no equivalence problem in target language.

Abstract

ne"> This research addresses the use of technology, especially information technology, by promoting the use of electronicportfolio (e-portfolio) for improving students' English skills. Some experts have suggested the use of e-portfolio for students inindependent learning activities and others proposed this as one of alternative assessment tools. Barret (2005) defines e-portfolio as thestore to collect and organize portfolio artifacts in many types of electronic media such as audio, video, graphic, and text; it usuallyuses hypertext links to manage the materials, connect evidence to appropriate outcomes, goals or standards. However, the term of eportfolio has not been popular among English teachers in Indonesia, especially in English Department of the State Polytechnic ofPadang, although some lecturers in this institution have been using social media in giving instructions, collecting assignments andgiving feedback to students. Moodle LMS has been applied as a platform for the e-portfolio in this research. This research examineswhether the use of e-portfolio improves students’ English skills. The English skills include four skills: Listening, Reading, Speaking,and Writing. An experimental research design will be employed. More specifically, this article discusses the students’ responsestoward the use of Moodle LMS in their learning. The questionnaire was distributed to students to find out their perceptions aboutMoodle LMS. It was found that 64.62% of the responses indicates positive perceptions.

Abstract

Pengucapan masih menjadi tantangan penting dalam pembelajaran Bahasa Inggris sebagai Bahasa Asing (EFL), khususnya yang menyangkut artikulasi bunyi konsonan yang tidak ada dalam bahasa ibu pembelajar. Studi ini melakukan tinjauan pustaka deskriptif untuk mengeksplorasi kesulitan pengucapan umum di antara pembelajar EFL, dengan fokus pada konsonan bahasa Inggris seperti /θ/, /ð/, /ʃ/, /ʒ/, /v/, dan gugus konsonan. Mengacu pada sepuluh artikel jurnal yang ditinjau sejawat dan tiga buku akademis yang diterbitkan antara tahun 2010 dan 2024, tinjauan tersebut mengidentifikasi pola yang konsisten dari interferensi bahasa pertama (L1), ketidakakraban artikulasi, dan kesadaran fonologis yang tidak memadai sebagai faktor utama yang berkontribusi terhadap kesalahan pengucapan. Temuan tersebut mengungkapkan bahwa pembelajar dari berbagai latar belakang linguistik—termasuk mereka yang berasal dari Indonesia, Timur Tengah, dan Asia Tenggara—sering kali mengganti bunyi bahasa Inggris yang tidak dikenal dengan padanan asli atau menyederhanakan struktur yang rumit. Selain itu, pelatihan fonetik yang terbatas dan kurangnya instruksi pengucapan yang eksplisit di kelas semakin menghambat kemampuan pembelajar untuk menghasilkan bunyi bahasa Inggris yang akurat. Studi ini menyoroti pentingnya mengintegrasikan fonetik artikulatoris, analisis kontrastif, dan praktik interaktif ke dalam instruksi pelafalan. Studi ini diakhiri dengan merekomendasikan pendekatan yang lebih sistematis dan berpusat pada siswa untuk mengajarkan pelafalan, dengan menekankan penggunaan teori fonologis, perangkat teknologi, dan tugas komunikatif untuk meningkatkan kejelasan dan kepercayaan diri siswa dalam bahasa Inggris lisan.

Abstract

While existing research on copywriting primarily assesses the impact of promotional content on audiences, there is a notable lack of studies exploring how copywriting is taught and practiced within language education. This study addresses this gap by examining the strategies employed by English language students at a state polytechnic in Indonesia as they create tourism promotional videos. Utilizing a qualitative content analysis approach, the research investigates students' final reports to identify key patterns and gaps in their copywriting practices. Findings reveal that while students demonstrated creativity and effectively showcases local cultural and natural attractions through engaging language, their work often lacked depth in audience profiling, inclusion of practical travel information, and alignment between video duration and selected media platforms. These limitations reduced the communicative effectiveness of their content. The study highlights the importance of integrating copywriting instruction into English for Specific Purposes (ESP) curricula, particularly in vocational education, to better prepare students for real-world communication tasks. Implications for ESP course design and project-based learning in language instruction are also discussed.

Abstract

While the potential of literary works in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) education is often discussed, limited research exist on their integration into Indonesian senior high schools English textbooks. The present study investigates how literary genres are incorporated into English textbooks in Indonesian senior high schools by investigating (1) the literary genre described in the textbooks and (2) the tasks that describe the language skills and the literary - specific knowledge to recognize the critical role of such content in fostering students' language development, cultural and intercultural awareness, and engagement in EFL education. The data sources of this study were three levels of senior high school English student textbooks published by the Indonesian government. The study combined a quantitative approach to examine the presence of literary works with qualitative content analysis to unpack the language skills and literary-specific knowledge included in the textbooks. The framework utilized literary genre terms and literary-specific knowledge. Among the 31 chapters in the textbooks, 12 chapters (39%) addressed literary works from various cultures, with 53% of the texts derived from the Indonesian context. In addition to language skills activities and tasks, there were literary knowledge activities. These findings implied that improving students' cultural and intercultural awareness may pose challenges. Moreover, these results highlight the importance of incorporating more authentic English literary works into English textbooks to prepare students for real - world English cultures. HIGHLIGHTS: The literary genres represented in these textbooks include fiction, nonfiction, and poetry. The authors of the analyzed textbooks predominantly utilized the term “genre-based text”,including narrative and recount texts, without introducing the term “literary" or "sastra". Over 53% of the literary content in these textbooks consists of texts or stories in anIndonesian context, so educators should include learning materials that feature originalliterary works to increase students' exposure to Western culture.
