Abstract

A parameter in assessing the translation quality is naturalness. The naturalness in translation adopted the concept of translation as an act of communication. It means that translation has a proper structure and choice of words according to a particular context. The article discusses the naturalness of translation based on pragmatic studies. The study used the utterances in the tourism text Solo Calendar of Event 2018 as data since the text had a communication function in conveying persuasive messages to tourists. In measuring the naturalness, the translation must achieve the equivalence in sentence structure and the types as well as the intended meaning of an utterance. The results indicated that the translation was categorized as fully equivalence with 70.49% of total data while the less equivalence and inequivalence of translation are 24.59% and 4.91% respectively from total data. The naturalness of translation from a pragmatic point of view requires understanding the objective of communication. It involves understanding utterance functions from the source text and achieving equivalence in translation. Translators also consider the choices of utterances since they can impact the target audience. The analysis of naturalness using pragmatic perspective offers new insight in the translation quality assessment.

This research investigates the challenges faced by English teachers in motivating junior high students to read within the context of implementing an emancipatory curriculum in Indonesia. Utilizing a semi-structured in-depth interview method, the study, conducted in four government schools in Pontianak in 2023, engaged four English teachers as respondents and one as an interviewer. Respondents were chosen based on their active involvement in daily professional activities. Following a predetermined interview protocol, the interviewer conducted one-on-one sessions, exploring teachers’ experiences, opinions, and emotions regarding efforts to promote English reading in their schools. The collected data underwent coding and interpretation, revealing teachers as crucial facilitators creatively addressing challenges, particularly in student motivation. Their adaptability and innovative programs foster diverse reading engagement strategies. Schools implement enhancements such as differentiated learning and literacy programs, extending to character development and teacher professionalism. Those efforts were the teachers’ creativity to elevate English teaching and learning in those four schools, particularly to promote reading activities during the early implementation of emancipatory curriculum. The findings emphasize the necessity for ongoing professional development, collaboration to address resource challenges, and the promotion of effective communication and collaboration among educators to enhance student engagement through innovative teaching.

Abstract

Research studies have discussed about potential influences of the learners’ cultural characteristics on writing in the first language to writing in English. However, only limited bodies of literature highlighted the phenomenon from the learners’ perceptions and experiences. Using a case study approach, the current study interviewed two ESL writing students who come from Indonesia and went to Australian high schools. The audio-recorded interviews were analyzed using thematic content analysis. Findings of the study show that writing in their first and additional languages as well as writing in English do not have significant differences, despite a few difficulties dealing with English grammar. There were several other factors which could also determine students’ performance in writing classes, such as teachers’ instruction, teachers’ feedback, classroom environment, and home literacy practices. The participants’ experiences have demonstrated that intercultural rhetoric (IR) better approached ESL writers as it views culture in complex and dynamic perspectives, and acknowledges learners’ different cultural backgrounds. The learners expect that the writing teachers aware of potential cultural differences in their writing and provide more intercultural opportunities. This article also highlights the IR-informed pedagogical approach which can potentially utilize the strengths of multicultural and multilingual writers in ESL classrooms.
