I. READ THE FOLLOWING SHORT STORY AND TRANSLATE INTO


INDONESIAN.
Beauty and the Beast
A widower merchant lives in a mansion with his twelve children (six sons and six daughters).
All three of his daughters are very beautiful, but the youngest, Beauty, is the most lovely. She
is also kind, well-read, and pure of heart; her two elder sisters, though, are cruel, selfish, vain,
and spoiled. On a dark and stormy night at sea, the merchant is robbed by pirates who sink
most of his merchant fleet and force the entire family to live in a barn and work for a living.
While Beauty makes a firm resolution to adjust to rural life with a cheerful disposition, her
sisters do not and mistake her firmness for insensibility, forcing her into doing household
work in an effort to make enough money to buy back their former home.
A year later, the merchant hears from one of his crewmembers that one of the trade ships he
had sent has arrived back in port, having escaped the destruction of its companions. Before
leaving, he asks his children if they wish for him to bring any gifts back for them. The sons
ask for weaponry and horses to hunt with, whereas the oldest daughters ask for clothing,
jewels, and fine dresses, as they think his wealth has returned. Beauty asks nothing but her
father's safety, but when he insists on buying her a present, she is satisfied with the promise
of a rose after none had grown last spring. However, to his dismay, the merchant finds that
his ship's cargo has been seized to pay his debts, leaving him penniless and unable to buy his
children's presents.
On his way back, the merchant is caught in a terrible storm. Seeking shelter, he comes upon a
mysterious palace. The merchant sneaks in, seeing that nobody is home, and finds tables
laden with food and drinks which seem to have been left for him by the palace's invisible
owner. The merchant accepts these gifts and spends the night. The next morning, the
merchant sees the palace as his own possession and is about to leave when he sees a rose
garden and recalls that Beauty had desired a rose. The merchant quickly plucks the loveliest
rose he can find, and is about to pluck more for a bouquet, but is confronted by a hideous
"Beast" who warns him that theft of his property, i.e. the rose, is a charge punishable by
death. Realizing his deadly mistake, the merchant begs for forgiveness, revealing that he had
only picked the rose as a gift for his youngest daughter. After listening to his story, the Beast
reluctantly agrees to let him give the rose to Beauty, but only if the merchant brings Beauty to
him in exchange without deception; he makes it clear that Beauty must agree to take his
place. He says he will then treat her as his fiancée, and not his prisoner, while under no
illusions about her predicament. Otherwise, the Beast will destroy his family.
At first, the merchant is upset about Beauty being abducted into marrying him, but he
reluctantly accepts. The Beast sends him on his way atop a magical horse along with wealth,
jewels and fine clothes for his sons and daughters, but stresses that Beauty must never know
about his deal. The merchant, upon arriving home, tries to hide the secret from his children,
but Beauty pries it from him on purpose. Reacting swiftly, the brothers suggest they could go
to the castle and fight the Beast together while the older sisters place blame on Beauty for
dooming the family. The merchant dissuades his children, forbidding them to go near the
Beast. That night, Beauty sneaks away from home against her father's orders to face the Beast
alone.
Once she arrives at his palace, the Beast is excited to meet Beauty face to face, so he throws a
welcome ceremony by treating her to an amazing cabaret. He gives her lavish clothing and
food and carries on lengthy conversations with her in which she notes that he is inclined to
stupidity rather than savagery. Every night, the Beast asks Beauty to sleep with him, only to
be refused each time. After each refusal, Beauty dreams of dancing with a handsome prince.
Suddenly, a fairy appears and pleads with Beauty to say why she keeps refusing him. She
replies that she doesn't know how to love the Beast because she loves him only as a friend.
Despite the apparition of the fairy urging her not to be deceived by appearances, she does not
make the connection between a "prince" and a "beast" and becomes convinced that the Beast
is holding the Prince captive somewhere in his castle. She searches and discovers many
enchanted rooms ranging from libraries to aviaries to enchanted windows allowing her to
attend the theater. She also finds live furniture and other live objects which act as servants,
but never the Prince from her dreams.
For a month, Beauty lives a life of luxury at the Beast's palace with no end to riches or
amusements and an endless supply of exquisite finery to wear. Eventually, she becomes
homesick and begs the Beast to allow her to go see her family again. He allows it on the
condition that she returns in exactly one week. Beauty agrees to this and is presented with an
enchanted ring which allows her to wake up in her family's new home in an instant when
turned three times around her finger. The rest of her family is surprised to find her well fed
and dressed in finery. Beauty tries to share the magnificent gowns and jewels the Beast gave
her with her older sisters, but they turn into rags at her sisters' touch and are restored to their
splendor when returned to Beauty, as the Beast meant them only for her. Her sisters are
envious when they hear of her life at the castle and, overhearing that she must return to the
Beast on a certain day, try to persuade her to steer clear of the Beast. Even her father
threatens to disown Beauty if she refuses to marry his younger and wealthier cousin the next
week, snatching the ring away from her to prevent her from returning to the Beast's castle.
When she then pleads for the marriage with the merchant's cousin to be delayed, her brothers
reject her, believing she knows too much about the Beast. Beauty is shaken by her family's
overprotection, and she reluctantly agrees to make it official.
A week has passed and Beauty begins hallucinating the Beast lying dead in his quarters and
hastens to return; she immediately steals back the ring from her father and uses it to return to
the Beast. Once she is back in the castle, Beauty's fears are confirmed as she finds the Beast
murdered in cold blood at the hands of an angry mob sent by her father. Completely
devastated over her sins, Beauty bursts into tears and laments that she should have learned
how to love the Beast in the first place, screaming, "I am sorry! This was all my fault!"
Suddenly, when she says those words, the Beast is transformed into the handsome prince
from Beauty's dreams. The Prince informs her that long ago, a powerful witch turned him
into a hideous beast for his selfishness after trying to seduce him and that only by finding true
love, despite his ugliness, could the curse be broken. He and Beauty are married and they live
happily ever after.

1. From the reading text above, find cultural terminology that can not be translated
into Indonesian and give your description to that terminology with your own words.
 Beauty : in this text ‘Beauty’ is a name, if we translate it to Indonesia language it will
be ‘Cantik’
Mansion : Mansion is a big house and luxirious
Well-read : Seem like knowledgeable and wise
Insensibility : Is seem like imbalance
Homesick : if we translate it directly to Indonesia, the meaning will be “sakit rumah”,
but the true meaning is that someone is missing home.
Steer : if your not using ‘clear’ then the meaning will be “mengarahkan” in
Indonesia, but because we are using ‘clear’ then the meaning is “menjauhi”. The
abbreviation for the Latin phrase id est, meaning “that is.” This abbreviation is used
when you want to specify something mentioned previously; it can be used
interchangeably with “specifically” or “namely.”
Dooming = cause to have an unfortunate and inescapable outcome. condemn to
certain destruction or death.
Dissuades = persuade (someone) not to take a particular course of action.
Savagery = (chiefly in historical or literary contexts) the condition of being primitive
or uncivilized
Cabaret = a form of theatrical entertainment featuring music, song, dance, recitation,
or drama
Lavish = the synonym of luxurious
Pleads = make an emotional appeal. it's like "memohon" in Indonesian
i.e = The abbreviation for the Latin phrase id est, meaning “that is.” This
abbreviation is used when you want to specify something mentioned previously; it
can be used interchangeably with “specifically” or “namely.”
2. Analyze the cultural differences between English (western) and Indonesian
(eastern) in that story and Explain how is the solution that you make to overcome the
cultural problem.
 A. In western some words are difficult to understand, such as difficult words and I
just seen it know (like insenbility, steer, dooming)
B. In western the text when we try to translate it into indonesia languange become
ambiguated if read word by word
C. In western text are many different sentences in Indonesian which cause us to be
creative to make them connected
D. We must know about the equivalent word
 The solution
A. Use goggle translate
B. Use thesaurus to find the synonym
C. We must creativity and thinking harder to connected the word
D. Read the text regulary and repeatdly
E. Sometimes I write my own opinion and word to connected the word into sentence
3. What is the relationship between translation and culture and describe the
relationship by using theory of some experts in translatation.
 House, (2002:92) said “one does not translate language but culture. And translation
transfer culture not languages.” Explain the translation ideology that you have, do
you use foreignization or domestication, or mixed ideology, give your reason based
on the result of your translation. As what Mohanty has said (1994: 25). "The
translation is not only a bilingual activity, but at the same time, a bicultural activity.”
As well as Nida “A translation may involve not only differences of linguistic
affiliation but also highly diverse cultures, English into Zulu, or Greek into
Javanese”.
4. Explain the translation ideology that you have, do you use foreignization or
domestication, or mixed ideology, give your reason based on the result of your
translation.
 I have a domestication ideology when I translate the text. domestication ideology
oriented to the norms and culture of the target language. I use this ideology because I
want the reader to fully understand what this text conveys. I focus more on the
culture and target norms so that readers can more easily accept my translation.
5. Why does the concept of equivalence hold a central position in translation studies and
has been causing many heated debates among translators, explain in brief. Do you
consider the equivalence while you are translating, how is your strategy of achieving the
equivalence?
 In conclusion, it could be argued that many translation theories are based on two
opposing ways of translating. For example, Nida distinguishes between formal and
dynamic equivalence, Newmark between semantic and communicative translation,
Catford between formal correspondence and textual equivalence, House between
overt and covert translation and Pym between natural and directional equivalence.
These bipolar views of equivalence soon faded away and more attractive translation
paradigms came to the forefront. Contrary to linguistic-oriented approaches to
translation which assume that the source text occupies a supreme position and that it
is considered to be of crucial importance in determining not only the translation
process but also the extent to which it has been successful, target-oriented approaches
view the source text as the point of departure for the translation process and mostly
focus on the cultural, historical, and socio-political factors surrounding translation,
thus looking at it as a culture-bound phenomenon. Despite of its shortcomings, it
should be stressed that equivalence is still one of the pivotal definitory axes of
translation since it functions as a reminder of the central problems a translator
encounters during the translation process.
6. Translation studies can be divided into two main areas; that is, pure translation
and applied translation. Explain the difference between pure translation and applied
translation.
 According to Holmes’ map (1972), there are two branches of pure and applied
translation studies. Pure branch is divided into descriptive and theoretical translation
studies. DTS has three orientations. THTS is split into general and partial theories,
with further six categories of partial theories. Finally, applied branch deals with
translation’s use. Machine translation means the use of computers to translate texts. It
has a long history, several approaches and architectures, four basic types, some
closely related concepts, and some drawbacks.
7. Descriptive Translation Studies (DTS) focus on three areas of research, namely;
product-oriented DTS, process-oriented DTS, function-oriented DTS. Explain the three
DTS in Brief in your own words.
 - Product-oriented DTS: examines existing translations. So, we can learn it from the
history of translation.
- Function-oriented DTS: is the study of context rather than the text. It examines
which books were translated when and where, and what influences they bring to us.
- Process oriented DTS: is study with the psychology of translation, for example is to
find out what happens in the mind of a translator
