This paper maps the Indonesian-English translation strategies within a comic published in Webtoon, arguably the most popular global digital comic service platform in this generation. The data was taken from Webtoon. The data is an Indonesian Webtoon entitled “My Pre-Wedding” created by Annisa Nisfihani and its translation into English by Pujangga Team. This study’s design is qualitative, primarily describing the data by way of document review. Researchers catagorised the data into six translation strategies as stated by Baker Mona (1992). The researchers accumulated 261 data of translation strategies. Based on the analysis undertaken, the translation strategies used are mainly general word (17 findings = 6.5%), cultural substitution (47 findings = 18%), loan word (16 findings = 6.1%), paraphrase using a related word (53 findings = 20.3%), paraphrase using unrelated words (63 findings = 24.1%), and omission (65 findings = 24.9%). The results not only contribute to the research on language translation strategies, but also give insight on how they apply within the new generation’s smartphone cyberculture.

The results show that error translation may appear because the translator lacks of reading whole text of expert translators. In the other opinion, the errors happen because the translator does not mastering the particular part of speechs in which error appear yet.

Abstract

This qualitative case study investigates how Virtual Reality (VR) mediates English for Academic Purposes (EAP) in a History course from the standpoint of Indonesian EFL undergraduates. Thirty students at a public university in East Java participated in a two-session VR sequence of short 360° “field trips” followed by evidence-anchored speaking and writing. informed by disciplinary literacy in History and genre-based EAP pedagogy. Data were generated through non-participant classroom observations, semi-structured interviews, and brief open-ended reflections. Data were analyzed using reflexive thematic analysis. Findings indicate predominantly positive attitudes toward VR-mediated EAP in the Indonesian higher education setting. Students reported that VR sharpened attention to historical features, supplied shared visual evidence that made discussion more purposeful, and supported movement from description to interpretation and evaluation in short academic products. Learners perceived gains in discipline-relevant lexis (materials/condition, spatial relations, chronology) and increased willingness to speak when guided-noticing prompts and sentence stems were available. Reported constraints, brief motion discomfort, bandwidth/device interruptions, and elevated cognitive effort at the moment of articulation were mitigated by short viewing segments, a one-minute reset, and role rotation during device sharing. The study concludes that, when braided with genre-aware scaffolds, VR functions as a practical mediational tool for fostering participation, clarity of ideas, and discipline-specific vocabulary in History-oriented EAP within Indonesian higher education.
