The Impact

Giving advice is a common speech act but potentially problematic as it may threaten the face of the hearer. The speaker will use politeness strategies to mitigate face threatening act in giving advice. Politeness strategies as mitigation are not only appeared in real conversation but also in fiction. Thus it raises a question how translators deal with politeness marker in giving advice in intercultural context. This paper aims at exploring the translation of politeness markers in giving advice used by the main characters in the novel Deception Point written by Dan Brown (2001). Data were the utterance of advices made by main characters in the novel Deception Point and its two Indonesian translation version. Data were taken by document analysis and focus group discussion in classifying the translation techniques. The result show that 1) there are only two main characters who give advice due to the felicity conditions of advice, 2) positive and negative politeness strategies are employed by the main characters in giving advice, 3) there is a change in the translation caused by the implementation of translation techniques to the politeness markers.

The Impact

This research aimed to analyze the translation techniques used by the subtitler to translate modality orientation and the impact of the translation techniques on the modality orientation shifts in “The Jungle Book” movie subtitle. This research was a descriptive qualitative research. The data in this research were words, phrases, and clauses as the marker of modality orientation in the movie, and translation techniques used by the subtitler. Modality orientation was obtained through content analysis based on Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) theory as proposed by Halliday and Matthiessen (2014). Then, translation techniques were obtained through Focus Group Discussion (FGD) as proposed by Molina and Albir (2002). The findings show that the subtitler uses seven techniques to translate modality orientation. They have established equivalence, modulation, discursive creation with established equivalence, deletion, transposition, discursive creation, and reduction with established equivalence. The subtitler uses established equivalence to translate orientation that produces same category, value, form, and orientation. Deletion technique, modulation, and creation discursive with established equivalence cause the loss of modality in the target language. Applying modulation, transposition, discursive creation, and reduction with established equivalence techniques make a shift on the modality orientation and also produce different meaning in the target language. The change of value in modality in the target language is caused by the use of modulation and reduction with established equivalence technique by the subtitler.
