Abstract

The study explored the impact of differences in vocal and consonant systems between Arabic and Indonesian languages on the pronunciation and understanding of native speakers of the two languages. The research uses descriptive qualitative methods with data collection techniques such as in-depth interviews, participatory observations, and document analysis. The study aims to study the effectiveness of learning media innovation in improving Arabic vocabulary skills among students. The study involved 30 students and 5 teachers. The learning media developed includes mobile apps, educational games, and animated videos designed to make the learning process more interactive and exciting. Thematic analysis of qualitative data shows that interaction, visualization, and personalization of learning media are key factors affecting learning effectiveness. Studies have shown that Indonesian Arabic students often have difficulties in distinguishing and pronouncing long and short vocals, as well as Arabic-typical consonants, which can lead to misunderstandings in communication. On the contrary, Arabic speakers who are learning Indonesia have found a more adaptable consonant and vocal system, although regional variations in pronunciation need to be taken into account.

Abstract

This study originates from the increasing use of artificial intelligence-based translation tools such as Google Translate and Chat-GPT in translating culturally embedded texts like Indonesian proverbs. The research focuses on the comparative analysis of translation outputs from both tools, particularly in the context of translating 26 selected Indonesian proverbs into Arabic. The objective is to evaluate how well each tool captures both the structural and semantic aspects of these culturally nuanced expressions. Using a qualitative descriptive method, the translations were analyzed through the lens of structural and semantic linguistics. The analysis revealed that while Google Translate tends to render literal translations that often fail to convey idiomatic or metaphorical meanings accurately, Chat-GPT demonstrates a higher capability in interpreting and contextualizing the intended meanings of the proverbs. The findings highlight a significant difference in the depth of linguistic and cultural understanding between the two tools, with Chat-GPT showing greater effectiveness in semantic adaptation. This suggests that AI-powered conversational models can provide more contextually appropriate translations, particularly for texts rich in cultural values. The study concludes that linguistic intelligence, especially in semantic interpretation, is crucial in achieving meaningful cross-lingual translation of idiomatic expressions.
