Abstract

When translating a message, a translator needs to identify the most equivalent natural expression in Target Language (TL). Nevertheless, it is not always feasible to discover the corresponding translation for culturally specific text. The translators frequently need various procedures to accomplish the translation tasks. This study examines the procedures used in translating Islamic terms and the most common procedures used by translators in the book "Reclaim Your Heart and its translation. The researcher employed a qualitative method for collecting descriptive data by explaining the translation procedures provided by Newmark. The data was gathered by analyzing Islamic terms in the source language (SL) and target language (TL) texts, categorizing terms according to the translation procedures used. After analyzing the data, four types of translation procedures were found in thirty-four pieces of data. They are transference, couplet, naturalization, and cultural equivalent. The most common translation procedure used in translating Islamic terms by the translator is transference. The translator maintained the English Islamic terms (SL) in Indonesian text (TL) without some linguistic changes (phonological or morphological). This approach was used for translating proper names, places, verses, the book's title, and the terms used several times in the book.

Abstract

Understanding student’s language communicative behaviors is crucial to explain why some students might have more willingness to communicate (WTC) when they are learning English than other students. WTC is one important factor contributing to student’s success in developing their speaking skills with its relation to other aspects. This study intended to examine the level of students’ willingness to communicate during a speaking class, WTC outside the classroom, communication confidence, and international posture and to see the correlation among those variables. The data were collected through a questionnaire adapted from a willingness to communicate in the L2 scale. The result shows that most Indonesian students majoring in English Education at Yogyakarta State University in the Special Region of Yogyakarta have a high willingness to communicate during a speaking class as well as international posture. Furthermore, half of the students have high and moderate willingness to communicate outside the classroom and communication confidence. However, there is only one correlation among those variables that is found significant which is a correlation between WTC during a speaking class and communication confidence. Since this study did not find any participant who had a low rank for all the variables tested, this study has limitations in explaining the path from low to high level of the four variables.
