Abstract

In Indonesia, many types of motorcycle are produced and marketed. Most of them are made by foreign manufacturers. The manual books which are printed in foreign languages such as English may cause some problems for the motorcycle owners and users in the country. One of the problems is the translation of the technical terms in the manual books. It is thus challenging to analyze the translation techniques applied in the translation of the automotive technical terms in Yamaha Nmax Owner’s Manual, and the impact of translation techniques on the accuracy, acceptability and readability. Yamaha Nmax is one of the motorcycles with high sales rate in the country. The methods of data collection consist of content analysis and in-depth interview with the raters and respondents. The results show that there are 8 techniques used to translate the technical terms and the use of the techniques result in a translation which is in general accurate, acceptable, and readable. The technique which produces translations with high level of accuracy, acceptability and readability is established equivalent. Meanwhile, generalization tends to produce translations with low level of accuracy, while borrowing produces translations with low level of acceptability and readability.

Abstract

This research focuses on two review texts published in a teenage magazine called Teen Ink. It is aimed to discover the language style and text structure used by the same text producer. Using Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) approach, this research describes the register and genre employed in the two analyzed texts. The analysis was done by examining and comparing the generic structure and the metafunctions of each text. The description of data led to the interpretation of field, tenor, and mode. From the genre analysis, it can be seen that the text producer follows the same text structure for both texts, though differences were found in the technique used to compose each stage of the text. In terms of register, different dominant transitivity and circumstance types were found in both texts. Meanwhile, the text producer puts all participants surrounding the texts in equal position, and positive assessment is implied in both texts. In addition, as the texts are written in a language style that tends to be spoken, the texts are considered appropriate for the medium, namely the review column of Teen Ink magazine.

Abstract

The digital era and internationalization of higher education has led to the emergence of novel uses of new media such as the website where new higher education discourses emerge. This study examines the realization of evaluative language in English news texts in a university official website in the context of higher education. Using the Appraisal framework, this study attempts to identify lexicogrammatical resources construing attitude and graduation in eight news texts published in the official website of UNS from January to February 2019. The selected texts cover key news topics, namely reports of achievements, events, and a feature of a university facility. The findings show that attitudinal resources and its graduation are present in the news texts to create a positive image for UNS. Appreciation as the most prevalent type of attitude works to invoke positive judgement of capacity alongside inscribed judgement and affect to relay the image of UNS as a capable university. The study found that, while still following the structure of news texts, news writers for UNS’ official websites use various attitudinal resources in a complex system of prosody-creation to develop positive judgement towards the university’s capacity.

Abstract
