Previous Study
Noun phrase translation techniques and translation quality in James Cameron's novel "Avatar"41. This previous study is similar to analyzing translation quality, but it is different from object analyses. The object only analyzes translation quality, but the previous study used two object analyzes with translation techniques.
The focus objects of analysis are different: the researcher analyzes a text, but the previous study analyzes a novel. The result of Virati Retno Devanti's dissertation shows that the accuracy level of translation is high and the translation technique through established equivalence is the technique with high degree of accuracy and acceptability. 41Virati Retno Devanti, An Analysis of Translation Techniques of Noun Phrase and The Quality of The Tra slatio i Ja es Ca ero’s No el A atar Thesis, UN“, “u aka ta,. In fact, very different research, because previous research is an analysis of the conversation sentence in the book and the researcher is an analysis text of the 'Cinderella'.
The result of the previous research above is that the quality level of the conversational sentences of the data is high, because the data has been found to be accurate, acceptable and readable.43.
Research Methodology 1. Research Approach
Data Source
Furthermore, Bogdan and Biklen said that "data is both evidence and data".52 This meant that the source of data was where the researcher got the problem to analyze and also where the answer could be found. Primary data can be collected either through experiment or survey.53 The primary source of data is taken from the dialogue and narration of the text "Cinderella". Bogdan and Sari Knopp Biklen, Qualitative Research for Education: An Introduction to Theory and Methods Fifth Edition.
The secondary data, on the other hand, was that which had already been collected by someone else.54. The secondary data sources were the other sources related to this movie, books, journal, news, internet media, dictionary, encyclopedia, and all kinds of literature that were there are related to this research. The data source of this research was 1) raters for each accuracy, readability and acceptability level of the text using Google Translate, 2) professional translation.
Technique of Data Collection
Documentation is a technique of collecting data that is not directly addressed to the research subject, but through a document. A written document is a document that consists of a written statement by a person or an institution.57 In addition, the researcher also searched for information from books, the Internet, or magazines that are related to the topic. A questionnaire is a data collection technique with a set of questions or a written statement to which respondents are asked to answer.
Basically, the questionnaire is effective to know the specific variable that is measured and what the respondent expects. 58.
Technique of Data Analysis
In another definition, content analysis is a research technique for making replicable and valid inferences from texts (or other meaningful things) to the context of their use. Definitions where content emerges in the process of a researcher analyzing a text in relation to a particular context.61. Furthermore, qualitative data usually takes the form of words (descriptions, observations, impressions, recordings and the like).
To analyze data, the researcher must organize and categorize or code the large amount of data so that it can be described and interpreted.62 This meant that to analyze data in qualitative research, the researcher must organize and categorize the initial data which is usually still in large numbers, once the data was organized and categorized then it could be described and interpreted. Based on the above explanation, in order to analyze the quality of Google translation in the English to Indonesian translation of the text "Cinderella", the first step was the search script by the researcher of the text titled. And the last step was the interpretation based on the quality of the Google translation that is used to translate the text.
Organization of the Thesis
Accuracy
- Classification A
- Classification B
- Classification C
The definition of correct data in this classification was that the message of the source text was correctly delivered in the target text. The message that was the mousetrap control fully translated into target text. This classification consists of sentences which were less accurate if most of the meanings of the words, technical terms, phrases, clauses or sentences in the source text are accurately transferred to the target text.
There was an interference with the integrity of the message, so the message did not get through completely. The clause "because his wife ruled him entirely" did not translate the source text into target text, causing the translation to have the opposite meaning. The translation has been classified as an inaccurate translation because the meanings of words, technical terms, phrases, clauses or sentences in the source text have not been accurately transferred or removed (deleted) in the target text. The number of sentences belonging to this classification was 71 (70.30) %).
In this sentence, Google Translation did not see the situation or place where the story of the text took place.
Readability
- Classification A
- Classification B
The message did not convey this translation because the situation was not competitive with football. She then went to look in the mousetrap, where she found six mice, all alive. Google Translation has chosen a word that is easy to understand so that readers can easily understand the translation.
Google Translation's translations of Cinderella text would be classified as less readable in this classification. It was classified as if the translation could be understood by the reader, but there were certain parts that required reading more than once to understand the translation. Actually, Google Translation did not choose the words whose meaning was difficult to understand, but the reader must read and know the context of the situation of this text to understand what the exact meaning of the translation is.
The context of the text situation is that the meter has taken something, so the word 'leaving nothing' should be translated in Google Translation's translations of the text of Cinderella 'tidaktersisa'.
Sentence 40 was classified as less readable because “rat - trap”
- Classification C
- Acceptability
- Classification A
- Classification B
- Conclusion
- Recommendations
So she gave her a pair of the most beautiful glass slippers in the whole world." This less acceptable classification had Google Translate sentences of the text Cinderella belonging to it. The word "the beautiful owner of the glass slipper" was grammatically incorrect because it was translated as "pemilikindahdarisepatukaca".
There was little trouble in the use of the technical term for the word "though her". From all the above explanations, the researcher had to find the average score for the accuracy, readability and acceptability of this translation in this table. The teachers, especially the teacher of English translation, are recommended to improve the detail teaching on the way to identify the quality of translation used by Google Translate, especially in narrative text for the text "Cinderella".
Readers in general are advised to learn more about the quality of translations used by Google Translate, especially in the narrative text of the text “Cinderella”.
