Massive discussion has been done related to the translation strategy, including the proper name. This study discussed the types of a proper name and the translation strategy of a proper name in an English-Indonesian Novel Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secret. The data will be presented qualitatively by using Peter Newmark and Lincoln Fernandes theories. Six data are frequently typed into addressing name, four are typed as a geographical place, and one as an object name. Moreover, the most strategies used to engage the equivalence effect are copy strategy with seven data, rendition strategy with three data, and re-creation strategy with one datum. Therefore, the copy strategy can be a solution to deliver proper names into TL because it preserves the proper name and introduces the foreign name of foreign culture to the target language and target culture. Moreover, if a proper name has its equivalence meaning in TL, it might be translated by rendition strategy.

The research discloses to the politeness scales and strategies of Ahok’s statements as a Governor of Jakarta. To identify both, the data will be analyzed and presented qualitatively by using five (5) strategies by Brown and Levinson, and five (5) measuring scales rating of politeness theorized by Leech. The data that have been presented show that the strategies used by the speaker are mostly negative politeness strategies. The speaker emphasizes the advantages on the Speaker image only without paying attention to the Interlocutors. In the context of existing multi-lingual it shows that the form of the statements is mostly classified into declarative and assertive dominating the statements. On a scale of decency, it demonstrates that the authority scale often becomes the one mostly performed in the statements centering on less positive face. While the people’s opinions on the strategy used by speaker are various. Several of them ignore the strategy and concern to the work result; and many others really concern to strategy used and it is a crucial thing to adapt to the social-cultural context. The negative politeness strategy is mostly used because the speaker emphasizes the advantages on the speaker image only without paying attention to the communicant. Therefore, the impact is polarity in both societies and something which breaks in the cultural politeness strategy commonly used among the persons who are in the duty for the nation. Both work result and social rules are important to be done.DOI: 10.15408/insaniyat.v2i1.6590

AbstractTranslating certain texts from one language to another language might become one of the most challenging tasks for a translator, especially for a text containing a lot of cultural words. A translator is frequently faced with the problem of how to treat the implicit aspects of culture and how to find appropriate strategies in translating a text from a Source Text (ST) into Target Text (TT). It is probably right to say that a translator has to deal with a lot of thigs to do which have not, perhaps, been aware for cultural gaps and their significance in translation. Many translation theorists have concerned with the problems of cultural knowledge and cultural differences for many decades, might be, since translation as sciences had been recognized. Cultural knowledge and cultural differences begin to draw attention from many experts to focus on translation theories and to conduct translation training for academic studies. Therefore, the present paper aims at presenting strategies of translating the cultural concepts by different theorists. In addition to this, it is also expected to reinforce a translator to choose the appropriate procedures and strategies in translating process.---AbstrakMenerjemahkan teks-teks tertentu dari suatu Bahasa ke Bahasa yang lain, seringkali, menjadi salah satu tugas berat sekaligus merepotkan bagi seorang penerjemah, khusunya dalam menerjemahkan teks-teks yang mengandung banyak kata-kata budaya. Seorang penerjemah sering kali dihadapkan pada masalah-masalah bagaimana mengaplikasikan aspek-aspek budaya dan bagaimana menemukan strategi dalam menerjemahkan sebuah teks dari Bahasa Sumber (BSu) ke dalam Bahasa Sasaran (BSa). Hal ini, mungkin saja, dikarenakan seorang penerjemah harus direpotkan dengan hal-hal, yang bisa jadi, seringkali tidak disadari oleh seorang penerjemah dalam menghadapi perbedaan budaya yang memiliki peran penting dalam penerjemahan.Banyak pakar teori penerjemahan merasa prihatin dengan masalah-masalah yang berkenaan dengan perbedaan dan pemahaman budaya dalam kurun waktu yang cukup lama, yang kemungkinan besar, telah ada sejak penerjemahan dijadikan sebagai disiplin ilmu pengetahuan. Perbedaan dan pengetahuan budaya ini kemudian menyita perhatian dari para pemerhati penerjemahan untuk menyoroti masalah teori penerjemahan dalam kajian akademis. Oleh karena itu, tulisan ini bertujuan untuk membahas masalah strategi dalam menerjemahkan konsep-konsep budaya dengan mengacu pada pendapat pakar penerjemahan tertentu, seperti Peter Newmark. Di samping itu, tulisan ini juga diharapkan dapat membantu penerjemah untuk memilih strategi yang cocok dalam melakukan proses penerjemahan.

This article aims to reveal the purification or modernization performed by Muhammadiyah in Sufism, especially concerning the practical mysticism in sufi order and philosophical mysticism on the concepts of ittihād, hulūl, and wahdat al wujūd. The research data is gathered from the official document Muhammadiyah records, such as fatwas of Muhammadiyah's Majlis Tarjih and Tajdid, Hamka's thoughts and AR Fakhruddin’s performance as former leaders of Muhammadiyah. This study uses content analysis to determine the position of Muhammadiyah's views on the early Sufi. The result showed that tajdīd performed by Muhammadiyah is called purification and it harmonious with modern life. It differs with the meaning and practices of early Sufism. Muhammadiyah's position towards tarīqa is positive as long as the understanding and practice of Islam are derived from the guidance of the Qur'an and valid Sunnah. As for the concepts of ittihād, hulūl and wahdat al-wujūd, Muhammadiyah rejects them because there is an element of equating God with humans or pantheism, which has no basis in the Qur'an and Sunnah. This rejection is in line with what has been done by early Sufism scholars such as al-Sarrāj, al-Juwairī, al-Syahrastānī, and al-Kalabāżī.

This qualitative study employs an explanatory case study methodology to unravel metaphor translation procedures, drawing from Peter Newmark's insights and Eugene Nida's translation equivalence theory. Unveiling a captivating dance between languages, the research showcases prevalent procedures such as replacing source language images with standard ones in the target language and converting metaphors into senses. The results illuminate how these techniques offer a distinct interpretation in the target language, ensuring a nuanced conveyance of the original message. A particularly enchanting aspect is the prevalence of dynamic equivalence, where numerous metaphors transform to present the essence in a fresh light without mimicking the source language. This deliberate departure from literal translation strives for a natural and evocative rendition, providing readers with a novel perspective on the narrative. In essence, this study takes readers on a concise yet compelling journey through the art of metaphorical translation, demonstrating how linguistic choices bridge cultural gaps while preserving the emotive essence of "Sad Girls." It offers a succinct window into the delicate balance between fidelity and creativity, showcasing the enriching possibilities that lie within the realm of cross-cultural literary translation.

This study examines the translation strategies and accuracy of idiomatic expressions in the Indonesian subtitles of the Wednesday series. Specifically, it analysed the methods and effectiveness of translating culturally nuanced idioms, highlighting their role in maintaining linguistic and cultural integrity. Using a qualitative method, data were collected by systematically watching the series, transcribing the target language audio, and identifying idiomatic expressions in the source language. Idioms were categorized based on Fernando and Makkai's typology, evaluated using Peter Newmark’s translation methods, and analyzed with Jan Pedersen's strategies. Accuracy was assessed using Nababan's framework. The study identified four types of idioms: pure idioms, semi-idioms, literal idioms, and phrasal verb idioms. Among the 64 idioms analyzed, 25 were pure idioms, 13 semi-idioms, 9 literal idioms, and 17 phrasal verb idioms. Translators employed five of the seven strategies outlined by Pedersen: generalization, direct translation, omission, substitution, and specification, with generalization being most frequent. The subtitle translations achieved high accuracy, with 45 accurate translations, 13 almost accurate, and 6 inaccurate. These findings underline the translators’ proficiency in maintaining the semantic and cultural integrity of idiomatic expressions. However, future research should address limitations such as the scope of data and potential subjective interpretations. This study contributes to translation studies by offering insights into idiom translation in audio-visual media, emphasizing strategies for achieving accuracy and cultural relevance.
