Abstract

Figurative language is a way to captivate readers, expressed through writing in a more creative style. This research aims to find out and compare the translation techniques used by Sapardi Djoko Damono and Dian Vita Ellyati to translate similes and metaphors in The Old Man and The Sea Novel and their effect on the quality of the translation. This research used a descriptive qualitative method that employed a sampling technique. The research data are similes and metaphors from The Old Man and the Sea and its two Indonesian translations. This research collects data from document analysis, questionnaires, and focus group discussions. This research shows that translation techniques used in similes and metaphors have different impacts on the translation quality in both versions. The final result of the calculation shows that version A has a final translation quality score of 2.42, while version B has a final quality score of 2.54. The findings highlight the importance of carefully considering and selecting appropriate techniques to convey figurative language in translated works effectively. Future research in this field could focus on exploring additional translation strategies for other forms of figurative language, investigating the preferences, and examining the influence of cultural context on the translation process.

Abstract

This study examines the basilectal variation and its functions among Indonesian K-pop fans, specifically NCTZen (NCT Fans), on social media X (formerly Twitter). Drawing on the post-creole continuum concept popularized by Bickerton, which conceptualizes basilect as the least prestigious linguistic variety compared to acrolect and mesolect. The variety of languages in this community has grown through digital interactions, reflecting the dynamics of language and users' creativity. A descriptive qualitative method was employed, with data collected from tweets using the hashtag #NEOCITY_THE_MOMENTUM_IN_JAKARTA during NCT 127's concert in Jakarta, Indonesia. Even though the data are drawn from a single fandom, this community reflects a characteristic of Indonesian K-pop fans: intensive online interaction, strong emotional expression, and engagement with transnational culture. The data were filtered to include non-formal linguistic expressions categorized as basilectal, such as colloquial pronouns, non-standard lexicon, phonological simplifications, code-mixing, and hybrid language forms. The findings indicate that basilectal variation is not merely a deviation from standard Indonesian but rather a deliberate linguistic practice that fulfills multiple functions, such as expressing strong affective responses, fostering solidarity, and negotiating transnational fandom belonging. This study contributes to digital sociolinguistics by showing that basilectal forms carry significant symbolic value within online fandom culture. These practices not only challenge the prestige hierarchy of standard language but also highlight the role of creativity, identity expression, and cultural hybridity in digital interactions.
