Abstract

This study investigates the occurrence of ellipsis and substitution in spontaneous spoken language. By employing the textual qualitative method, the study analyzed 106 conversational texts obtained from videos on the Jubilee YouTube channel. The research reveals that speakers frequently use ellipses and substitutions in their spontaneous spoken language to establish cohesion in their utterances. Nominal ellipsis has the highest occurrence with 50 data across all forms (nominal, verbal, and clausal ellipsis as well as nominal, verbal, and clausal substitution), indicating speakers’ propensity to avoid repetition, especially in nominal elements. Meanwhile, in terms of substitution, speakers are more likely to substitute their verbal elements, forming verbal substitution (occurred in 17 cases), in order to form variance in their utterances. This study provides fruitful significance, both theoretical and practical, and they will be further explained in this article.

Abstract

This study examines the application of foreignization and domestication strategies in translating the bilingual profile book of POKDARWIS ‘Big Farmer,’ a community-based tourism organization of Desa Kertawangi, West Bandung, Indonesia. Utilizing Venuti’s translation framework (1995), this research identifies how the two strategies are employed to present Culture-Specific Items (CSI) as categorized by Espindola (2005) to both Indonesian and English-speaking audiences, enhancing cross-cultural understanding and promoting tourism. Through qualitative analysis, the findings reveal a tendency of foreignization strategy to preserve cultural uniqueness and a minor amount of domestication to ensure clarity and readability for international readers. The study highlights the importance of adapting cultural terms and region-specific references to maintain both authenticity and accessibility in translation. This research contributes to the broader discussion on translation practices in tourism and cross-cultural communication, suggesting that a mixed approach allows for effective cultural representation while accommodating the target audience’s familiarity. The results have implications for translation studies, especially in bilingual materials for community-based tourism.
