Abstract

This study aimed at investigating the strategies which Indonesian translators use for translating of taboo words in Silvia Day’s novel entitled ‘Bared to You’, to analyze the implementation, and to analyze the equivalence achieved in the translation. In this study, a descriptive qualitative research is applied. The data were clasified using Batistella’s taboo categorisation and the translation strategies were further identified using the elaboration frameworks proposed by Davoodi, Robinson, and Brownlie. Then, Nida and Taber’s concept of equivalence was applied in determining the tendency of equivalence in the process of translating into target language. The results show that there are 555 taboo words found in the novel. Vulgarity dominates with 303 data, profanity 128 data, obscenity with 99, and last is ephitet with 25 data. The analysis on translation strategies shows that there are six strategies used by the translator in translating taboo words they are omission, euphemism, taboo for taboo, substitution, borrowing, and translation by more general word. Last, the analysis on the equivalence of translation shows that the translator tends to adopt more dynamic in translating taboo words into Indonesian.

Abstract

Teaching Maritime English Vocabulary to cadets can be very challenging for an English teacher. Cadets have daily tight schedules and physical activities that often consume their energy. It is important for the teachers to find out a strategy that is effective to be implemented in the classroom. This research was aimed to investigate the effectiveness of Vocabulary Self-Collection Strategy (VSS) and Word Mapping Strategy (WMS) for teaching vocabulary to maritime cadets with high and low metacognitive awareness. This study employed a quasi-experimental design with a 2x2 factorial design.Two experimental groups of the first year Nautical Cadetsof Semarang Merchant Marine Polytechnic were involved in this study. There were 36 participants. Metacognitive Awareness Inventory and Maritime English Vocabulary Assessment were used as the instrument for collecting the data. Observation was also conducted to support the data findings. To analyze the data, Paired Sample T-test and Two Way ANOVA were used.The research findings showed that both VSS and WMS are effective to be used in teaching Maritime English Vocabulary to cadets with high and low metacognitive awareness. However, when we compared the effectiveness of VSS and WMS, the findings revealed that VSS was more effective to be used in both high and low metacognitively aware cadets.The statistical analysis showed that there is an interaction among vocabulary teaching strategies, metacognitive awareness and vocabulary mastery.

Abstract

This study aimed to know the implementation of translation strategies used by the translator and equivalence achievement. Descriptive qualitative research approach is used as research design. The results of the study show that 10 translation strategies used by the translator in rendering 724 culture-specific items data. Translation by repetition or pure borrowing is mostly used the translator as translation strategy containing ecology, concepts of belief and religion, and anthroponyms. The translator intended to source language-oriented in the implementation of translation strategies in translating culture-specific items in The Spiderwick Chronicles because the culture-specific items in TL did not have equal meaning in TL culture. Dealing with equivalence of translation, the translator tends to avoid re-create the culture-specific items in SL. In order to achieve balance, the translator should reduce bringing the original words into target language and avoid the unfamiliar cultural terminologies.

Abstract

During the translation of IADC Workover Completion Manual, especially the compound-complex sentences, grammatical equivalence is crucial in order to produce accurate, acceptable, and readable translations. Therefore, this study is conducted to evaluate the realization of grammatical equivalence in English–Indonesian translation of compound-complex sentences in the manual and its relation to the translation quality. This study is a descriptive qualitative study. The researcher used document to collect the data of the compound-complex sentences. Besides, questionnaire and interview were completed by the target readers and the expert readers to assess the translation quality. The findings presents that out of 106 English compound-complex sentences that are translated to Indonesian, 74 (69.8%) of them are grammatically equivalent and 32 (30.1%) of them are not grammatically equivalent. It means that the 74 sentence translations’ structures are equivalent. In addition, the translations are literal and there are no shifts. In contrast, 32 non-grammatical equivalent translations are due to their free translations and lead to the translation shifts. From the findings, it can also be concluded that the grammatical equivalence influences the accuracy, the acceptability, and the readability of the translations for the target readers. On the other hand, for the expert readers, the grammatical equivalence only affects readability.

Abstract

Simulation and role play as techniques of teaching have been studied and believed to be effective for teaching speaking. In speaking class, students’ interest and motivation were also improved as effect of the techniques.This study aimed at examining the effectiveness of simulation and role-play as techniques of teaching speaking to the students with different levels of motivation. The design of this research was quasi-experimental study with 2 X 2 factorial designs. The independent variables were simulation and role play technique while dependent variable was students’ speaking ability. The data were gathered through a test, questionnaire, observation, and informal interview with teachers and students. Then, I analyzed the result from questionnaire and speaking test using t-test and ANOVA.The results of this study showed that simulation technique to teach speaking to the students with high and low motivation (80.8 and 65) and role-play technique is (71.9 and 70.9). Mean score of simulation technique was higher than role-play technique and and the total mean of the students with high motivation was higher than the students with low motivation. However, both of techniques were effective to students with high and low motivation. The value of sig. of techniques and motivation was 0.00. It meant that sig.value was lower than 0.05. It indicated that there was significant difference between techniques and students’ motivation to teach speaking. In other words, speaking techniques were able to improve students’ speaking competence and those correlated directly with the level of students’ motivation.Based on the result of the study, it can be inferred that students were getting advantages of using simulation and role-play techniques to teach speaking. The students’ score was significantly increased. they were also indirectly motivated to speak English and they gradually forgot the negative feeling such as shyness and lack of confidence

Abstract

The study reports the appraisal analysis and the rhetorical structure of eulogies delivered at Mrs. Lee Kuan Yew memorial service. Eulogies are meant to remember the person who died in a positive light, and offer an opportunity to speak about who the deceased was and the ways in which she or he made a difference in the lives of family, friends, and his or her community. Since eulogy contains praises for someone admired, and the speaker recalls the memories shared, he has to evaluate his feelings and relation by expressing attitude, his position towards the deceased, and gradable valuation. Such evaluation has to do with appraisal system. The research integrates the appraisal theory proposed by Martin and White (2005) and rhetorical structure (Kunkel and Dennis, 2003). This study employs discourse analysis method of research. The findings reveals that the eulogies have primarily used the judgement resources rather than affect and appreciation within the attitude system. As eulogizing function, the eulogy composed largely of laudation and praise, the use of judgement appraising items shows how the eulogizer’s assessment towards the admiring behaviour of the deceased during her life. Moreover, the utilization of the rhetorical structure contributes to the achievement of the communicative purpose of eulogy. Through the well-structured eulogies, the eulogizers heighten the audience member’s feelings of regard, love, and appreciation for the deceased.
