Abstract

This study examined the translation techniques used in the comic Pyramid Game from English to Bahasa Indonesia. As digital media continues to evolve, digital comics have become an increasingly valuable medium for fostering reading interest and promoting literacy. This study employed a qualitative method to analyze the translation of 15 English sentences from the digital comic into Bahasa Indonesia, selecting sentences from Part 1 to Part 10 based on their linguistic complexity and relevance to the Indonesian context and culture. The findings identified various translation techniques, highlighting their importance in conveying meaning while addressing cultural and linguistic nuances. The study also illustrates how different translation techniques were chosen and applied based on the context of each sentence. This research provides valuable insights for students at Universitas Terbuka and other interested readers, particularly in the field of translation studies, by exploring the diverse strategies applied in translating various materials.

Abstract

This study explores Indonesian English teachers' perspectives on English as a Lingua Franca (ELF) and its importance in workplace communication. Using grounded theory and narrative inquiry, the research investigates the experiences of four vocational English teachers to identify challenges, strategies, and suggestions for curriculum reform. The findings revealed that teachers frequently face psychological and linguistic obstacles, such as limited vocabulary and cultural differences, which hindered effective ELF communication. To address these issues, teachers employed pragmatic strategies and cultural adaptation techniques to facilitate workplace interactions. The study highlights the need to shift from traditional grammar-focused instruction toward ELF-informed methodologies that emphasize comprehensibility, intercultural competence, and practical communication skills. This approach aims to better prepare vocational Indonesian students for the complexities of global workplace environments. Overall, the research suggests for an inclusive and flexible English education system that strengthen intercultural understanding and communicative proficiency, essential for successful international collaboration and cross-cultural communication.
