Abstract

This article highlights the Community Service program carried out by students during the Field Study and Community Service Program, lasting approximately three months at Anuban Rangae School in Narathiwat, Southern Thailand. The implementation team, consisting of a student from the English Literature program at Universitas Abdurachman Saleh Situbondo and another from Universitas Muhammadiyah Tangerang, collaborated closely with an English teacher from Anuban Rangae School. Throughout their involvement, the team faced challenges due to ineffective and limited teaching methods. In response, they developed teaching programs, integrated interactive web-based applications, and introduced playful learning techniques. The resulting outcomes showed a significant positive impact, seen in the heightened enthusiasm and engagement of students towards learning, facilitated by diverse teaching strategies and media. Thus, the student-led Community Service program at Anuban Rangae School emerges as a promising approach for addressing prevailing educational challenges, enhancing learning experiences, and outcomes

Abstract

This study looks at how verbs are translated from English to Indonesian in the iPhone 13 Pro Max user guide, and how the translation techniques used affect how acceptable the translations are to Indonesian readers. While many studies have looked at translating technical texts, not many have focused on verbs or how they affect users’ understanding. This study fills that gap by focusing on verbs, which are important in user guides because they give instructions that need to be clear and easy to follow. The study uses a qualitative method, applying Molina and Albir’s (2002) framework to identify the translation techniques, and Nababan’s (2012) model to measure how acceptable the translations are. Five Indonesian iPhone users were asked to rate how natural and clear the translated verbs were using a three-point scale. The results show that established equivalent was the most commonly used technique and had the highest acceptability. Other techniques such as linguistic compression, compensation, transposition, and modulation were used less often but were still mostly acceptable. By connecting translation techniques to user feedback, this study offers a focused and user-centered contribution to translation studies. It also gives useful insights for translators and user guide developers who want to make their translations clearer, more culturally appropriate, and easier to understand.
