Translation Procedures
Task
1. Translation
This means rendering the sounds of an SL form e.g.
Indonesia English
Achmad - Ahmed
Betawi - Batavia
Orang Hutan - OrangUtan
2. Transliteration
This is a process of rendering the letters of one alphabet into the letters of another with a different alphabetical system. For example,
from the Russian Cryillic alphabets into the Latin ones or from Arabic into Latin. No transliteration takes place between Indonesian
and English since both use the Latin alphabets.
3. Borrowing
Many types of borrowing are made from one language to another. A procedure often used when the TL has no equivalent for the SL
units is to adopt them without change but sometimes with spelling or pronounciation adjusments. Look at the examples:
Indonesia English
Sampan Sampan
Kampung Kampung
Durian Durian
