Abstract

This author aims to analyze the figurative translation techniques applied by students in translating figurative expressions from Indonesian to English in the novel Gadis Kretek. The study employs a qualitative descriptive method to identify, classify, and describe the translation techniques used by the students. The data were obtained from the students’ translation works, focusing on various types of figurative language such as metaphor, simile, irony, hyperbole, metonymy, personification. The findings reveal that several translation techniques are dominantly used, including literal translation, equivalence, modulation, and adaptation. The results indicate that while literal translation is the most frequently applied technique, other strategies are also utilized depending on the contextual meaning of the figurative expressions. This study provides insights into how students manage the challenges of figurative language translation and contributes to the understanding of translation studies in an educational context.

Abstract

This study examines the translation techniques and orientation applied by fifth-semester students of the English Education Study Program at HKBP Nommensen University in translating the narrative text The Legend of Lake Toba from English into Indonesian. Using a descriptive qualitative design supported by quantitative data, the study analyzed 24 students’ translations based on Molina and Albir’s (2002) translation techniques and Nida’s (1964) theory of formal and dynamic equivalence, following Miles and Huberman’s (1994) interactive model.The findings reveal ten translation techniques with 2,016 total occurrences. Literal Translation was dominant (65.63%), followed by Modulation (19.84%) and Amplification (8.09%), while other techniques appeared in minimal percentages. The predominance of Literal Translation indicates a strong source-oriented approach, particularly formal equivalence. Overall, students tend to prioritize structural accuracy over communicative naturalness, suggesting the need to strengthen their understanding of translation orientation and the balanced application of translation techniques in narrative texts.

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the types of translation difficulties faced by eleventh-grade students in translating English narrative texts into Indonesian and to identify the factors causing these difficulties. The research employed a descriptive qualitative method, using translation sheets and interview transcripts as the primary data sources. The findings revealed that students experienced three main types of difficulties: lexical, grammatical, and semantic, with lexical difficulties being the most dominant (42.5%), followed by grammatical (32.5%) and semantic difficulties (25%). The factors causing these difficulties were classified into linguistic factors, including limited vocabulary, grammar and sentence structure problems, lack of contextual understanding, and reliance on literal translation, as well as non-linguistic factors such as fear of making mistakes, low self-confidence, and lack of practice. The study concluded that both linguistic competence and psychological factors significantly influenced students’ translation performance, suggesting that improvement in vocabulary, grammar mastery, contextual understanding, and learning support is essential to enhance students’ translation skills. Keywords: Translation difficulties; English narrative texts, lexical, grammatical, semantic, linguistic and non-linguistic factors.

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the translation strategies used by students in translating English narrative texts into Indonesian and to identify the reasons behind their choices. The research employed a descriptive qualitative method, using translation sheets and interviews as data sources. The findings revealed that students applied all seven strategies proposed by Vinay and Darbelnet, namely borrowing, calque, literal translation, transposition, modulation, equivalence, and adaptation. Among these strategies, literal translation was the most dominant (53.75%), followed by modulation (15.00%) and transposition (11.25%), while borrowing (7.50%), calque (5.00%), equivalence (3.75%), and adaptation (3.75%) were used less frequently. The dominance of literal translation indicates that students tend to rely on direct translation due to similarities in sentence structure between English and Indonesian and their preference for simple techniques. The study also found that students’ strategy choices were influenced by linguistic factors, such as limited vocabulary, grammatical difficulties, and lack of contextual understanding, as well as non-linguistic factors, including low confidence and fear of making mistakes. It can be concluded that students still depend on basic translation strategies, suggesting the need for more practice and guidance to improve their translation competence in producing more natural and contextually appropriate translations.grammar mastery, contextual understanding, and learning support is essential to enhance students’ translation skills.

Abstract

This study aims to identify the types of translation equivalence and translation strategies employed by fifth-semester students of the English Education Study Program at Universitas HKBP Nommensen Medan in translating cultural elements of the Batak Toba folktale Legenda Danau Toba into English. This research adopts a descriptive qualitative method. The data were collected from 23 student translation manuscripts of a 15-paragraph Batak Toba text. The analysis focuses on 16 selected cultural elements classified into ecological, social, and cultural categories. The analysis of equivalence is based on Nida’s (1964) theory, while translation strategies are analysed using Vinay and Darbelnet’s (1958) framework. The findings reveal that students applied three types of equivalence: formal, dynamic, and acceptable equivalence, with dynamic equivalence as the most dominant. Formal equivalence is mainly used for simple lexical items, while dynamic and acceptable equivalence are applied to culturally bound expressions. In terms of strategies, cultural equivalent and literal translation are the most frequently used, followed by functional and descriptive translation. The results indicate that students demonstrate an emerging ability to translate cultural elements; however, inconsistencies remain due to variations in linguistic competence and cultural understanding. Therefore, strengthening students’ knowledge of translation theory and cultural context is necessary to improve translation quality.

Abstract

Background: Gamified instruction is a challenging solution to problems in students’ vocabulary and motivation in rural areas like South Nias. This study aims to determine the effect of gamified instruction on students’ vocabulary ability and motivation. Methodology: The aims of this study were achieved by implementing a mixed research method (qualitative and quantitative). The experimental research design was used to determine the effect of treatment on vocabulary ability; however, a questionnaire and semi-structured interview were delivered to the experimental students. The sample of this study is 60 students.   Findings: After analyzing the data, it is shown that the experimental group positively affects students’ motivation. The control group has a higher motivation but is not significant in their vocabulary achievement. In addition to that significant effect on experimental vocabulary achievement. Gamified instruction can be concluded as an efficient strategy to achieve learning goals.  Conclusion: Gamified instruction can be an alternative solution for English teachers to improve student vocabulary and motivation to learn English as a foreign language. Originality: Most of the current studies focus on online media (platforms) and less research investigates vocabulary and students' motivation.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to identify the translation methods used by Grade XI students of SMA Swasta Budi Utomo Medan and to determine the dominant method in translating an analytical exposition text from English into Indonesian. This study applied Larson’s (1984) translation theory, focusing on Form-Based, Communicative, and Idiomatic Translation. A descriptive qualitative design was employed. The data were obtained from the translations of 21 students based on a text entitled The Importance of Learning English, which was divided into 30 segments, resulting in 630 translation units. The data were analyzed using the interactive model of Miles and Huberman (2014). The findings revealed that Form-Based Translation was the most dominant method (352 occurrences; 55.9%), followed by Communicative Translation (240 occurrences; 38.1%) and Idiomatic Translation (38 occurrences; 6.0%). Furthermore, 13 students (61.9%) were categorized as predominantly form-based translators, while 8 students (38.1%) were communicative translators, and none were idiomatic. These findings indicate that students tend to prioritize source language structure rather than natural meaning in the target language, suggesting the need to enhance their communicative translation competence.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze and compare the translation techniques used by Al and human translators in translating cultural words found in the Gadis Kretek novel. Using the observation method to collect data from the novel, this research applies Molina and Albir's (2002) translation techniques framework to examine the strategies employed by both translators. The finding of this research shows that 50 data fulfill thirteen types of translation technique. The findings reveal that Al translators employ 4 techniques in translating sentences containing cultural words: Adaptation, Literal Translation, Borrowing, and Calque. On the other hand, human translators utilize 8 techniques, including Establishing Equivalence, Adaptation, Description, Amplification, Modulation, Linguistic Amplification, Transposition, and Naturalization. The basic difference in translation techniques between Al translators and human translators lies in the range and variety of techniques they employ. Al translators only utilize 4 out of the 18 translation techniques proposed by Molina and Albir (2002), whereas human translators apply 8 techniques, making their approach more diverse and flexible. The result of this study is discrepancy in the number of techniques used can be attributed to several underlying reasons that stem from the fundamental differences in how Al and human translators process language, context, and culture. Among all the translation techniques analyzed, Al tends to use Literal Translation more frequently, Al translators most frequently use the Literal Translation technique (45 times), translating word-for-word from the source to the target language. This occurs because Al prioritizes lexical equivalence without considering cultural context, often resulting in unnatural or inaccurate translations. In contrast, human translators mostly use Adaptation (20 times) and Modulation (24 times). Adaptation replaces culture-specific terms with more familiar equivalents in the target culture, while Modulation adjusts the expression or point of view to sound more natural and contextually appropriate.

Abstract

This study focused on the effect of self-assessment strategy on students’ writing recount text. The objective of this study was to know the effect of self-assessment on students’ writing recount text at eight grade. It was conducted by using experimental research design. The population of this study was the eight student of SMP Swasta Advent 5 Medan. Two classes were taken as the sample of this research. The class VIII-1 was as the experimental group and the class VIII-2 was as the control group. The experimental group was taught by using self-assessment strategy, while the control group was taught by traditional teaching method. The instrument of collecting data was writing test and field note. The result of this study shows that the use of self-assessment strategy is effective for students in writing recount text. From the result, the students’ score of the experimental group in the post-test was higher than the students in the pre-test. The mean score of post-test in the experimental group 76.55 was higher than mean score of the control group 60.88. It was really good significant effect by using self-assessment strategy. The data were analyzed by using t-test formula. The data were collected by giving pre-test and post- test. After giving the treatment, the result of paired sample t-test, obtained that sig. (2-tailed) or the p value was 0.00 from the df 34 and the significance level (α) is 0.05. Since 0.00 is smaller than significance level (α) 5%. The null hypothesis is rejected. In other word, the hypothesis saying that the mean after the treatment is smaller than before the treatment. It means that self-assessment strategy can be used as teaching approach alternative to enrich students writing at eight grade. Keywords: Self-Assessment Strategy, Recount text, Writing.
