Abstract

This study focuses on English to Indonesian live simile translation. Live simile is the mostly occurred in novels, but unfortunately, under-researched. 33 live similes were collected from a novel and 12 data were chosen randomly to be analyzed using descriptive qualitative method. The comparison markers used to identify the live simile were based on Pierini’s and the procedures applied to analyze the data were based on Newmark’s. The study concluded that the comparison marker mostly used was verb-like and the mostly used translation procedure was reproducing the same image in the translation. It was also revealed that culture has significant role in translating simile and therefore, translators need to relate their culture knowledge in the source language in order to reproduce the same image in the translated text.

Abstract

A strategic evaluation studyan analysis of reader numbers and book collections at Community Reading Centers (TBM) in Indonesiawas conducted using a mixed-methods approach with an evaluative-descriptive design, involving 172 TBM managers from 27 provinces in Indonesia. The study concluded that 50% of TBMs had fewer than 30 children as readers, 39% had 30–60 readers, and only 11% had more than 70 children as readers. Regarding the adequacy of book collections, 58% of TBMs have “inadequate” collections, 24% have “possibly adequate” collections, and only 18% have “adequate” collections. Only a small fraction of TBMs have reached the ideal threshold for book collection autonomy. There is a paradox in the current literacy ecosystem and TBMs: high visitation rates (with 49% of TBMs having more than 30 child readers) are not matched by adequate book collection standards (only 18% are adequate). There is a need to integrate funding sources for TBMswhether from the government, village funds, or private-sector CSR initiativesto strengthen the national literacy foundation and ensure the continued existence of TBMs. There is a need for more adequate scalability of TBM book collections, the importance of national book grants, and equitable access based on region to transform Indonesia’s literacy profile from merely providing “physical access” to achieving high-quality “mastery of the material.”
