Abstract

While euphemism has been extensively studied, there remains a gap in the literature regarding its use by physicians with critically ill patients during consultations, as well as medical students' perceptions of this practice. This present mixed-methods case study addresses this gap by examining the forms of euphemistic language employed by doctors with critically ill patients and exploring medical student’s perspectives on this use.  Findings reveal that physicians utilize euphemisms to emphasize positive aspects, employ softer terminology, and omit frightening details when communicating with critically ill patients. Medical students perceive this practice as valuable for minimizing patient stress and facilitating comprehension of information. of information. These findings have significant implications for medical practice and education. For practitioners, a nuanced understanding of euphemisms language can enhance patient-doctor communication, particularly in sensitive contexts, by mitigating anxiety and fostering a more supportive atmosphere. For medical educators, incorporating training on the effective use of euphemisms into curricula can better equip future physicians to navigate difficult conversations with empathy and clarity. This study also highlights the need for continued research into communication strategies within healthcare to ensure their alignment with both ethical principles and the emotional well-being of patients.

Abstract

This study focuses on translation analysis of the use of bilingual teacher talk in teaching TEYL (Teaching English for Young Learners) in Sepama Cambodian classrooms. The method used is qualitative descriptive. The results showed that the students as teachers in the Sepama class used 8 translation techniques based on theories from Molina and Albirr. The results of the analysis were obtained based on the processing of 35 data obtained from online learning videos. The literal translation technique was applied to 9 data or 25.71%. Amplification technique as much as 2 data or 5.71%. Variation technique 1 data (2.85%), Typical matching technique 2 data or 5.71%. While the reduction technique has 9 data (25.71%). Transposition and particulate techniques each have 3 data or 8.57%. and finally Modulation technique as much as 4 data or 11.43%. The reduction technique is widely used because the structure of BSa is simpler than BSu. While literal techniques are also often used because teachers must immediately convey BSa and BSu immediately respectively.

Abstract

The strategic establishment of an internationalized status has led many Indonesian universities to implement bilingual policies on campus public signage. However, a significant research gap exists regarding a systematic analysis of the translation quality in this domain, despite its crucial role in projecting the institution's global image. This study aims to investigate the phenomenon of Indonesian-English translation in the public signage at a state university in Surakarta. Employing qualitative research grounded in critical content analysis, data were collected through photographic documentation of 32 public signs. The analysis was framed within the theoretical lens of translation techniques and methods to assess the correspondence between source and target texts. The findings reveal the use of four translation methods: word-for-word, literal, adaptation, and free translation, with the literal method being the most predominant. In terms of translation techniques, adaptation was the most frequently employed, alongside linguistic compression, literal translation, and established equivalence. This indicates a concurrent tendency to retain source-language structures while modifying cultural elements, occasionally leading to inconsistency. The implication is that the university must employ a more considered approach, potentially involving linguistic experts, to ensure the signage achieves clarity, accuracy, and cultural appropriateness for an international audience

The results indicated a significant improvement in understanding, with average scores rising from 85.71 in the pre-test to 95.87 in the post-test, marking a 15.28% increase. Furthermore, the students' practical performance achieved an average score of 81.4, falling into the "B" (Good) category. These achievements demonstrate that intensive training effectively builds students' confidence and linguistic competence. In conclusion, mastering English MC techniques is crucial for vocational students to improve their competitiveness and professionalism in a global era; therefore, such programs should be implemented sustainably to further refine their public speaking talents.

Abstract

Background: This study investigates the ideological refraction of Kartini’s epistolary identity across two seminal translations: Symmers’ English Letters of a Javanese Princess and Balai Pustaka’s Malay Habis Gelap Terbitlah Terang. Methodology: Employing Martin and White’s Appraisal Framework, comparative analysis of textual divergences across three narrative phases between the two translations reveals contrasting characterological constructions. The Dutch source is acknowledged as context but not used as a fidelity benchmark, making this a comparison of target-text constructions rather than a source-target shift analysis. Findings: Symmers’ translation textually constructs a figure legible as a tragic victim to be pitied, privileging Appreciation over Affect and encoding Kartini as patient. Balai Pustaka’s translation textually constructs a legible figure as a foundational martyr to be emulated, migrating from Appreciation to Affect and reconfiguring suffering as active labor. These constructions invite divergent readings that align with colonial and nationalist interpretive traditions respectively, though Balai Pustaka’s status as a colonial-government publishing institution complicates any simple attribution of nationalist intention to the translators themselves.  Conclusion: Translation thus constitutes not secondary representation but a site of discursive production: the English and Malay translations offer divergent textual resources for remembering Kartini, shaping how she is positioned within competing cultural imaginaries. Originality: By deliberately bracketing the question of fidelity to the Dutch original, this research pivots towards refraction as its governing optic thus advancing the claim that translation is the primary mechanism through which Kartini’s historical identity has been fissured and canonized into two discrete figures conscripted to serve opposing cultural and political imaginaries.
