8 ABSTRAK KEBERTERIMAAN HASIL TERJEMAHAN MAHASISWA JURUSAN PARIWISATA POLITEKNIK NEGERI BALI Seorang penerjemah harus bisa menjembatani makna dan informasi dari Bahasa Sumber (BS) ke Bahasa Target (BT) dengan baik. Larson (1984:3) menjelaskan bahwa penerjemahan terdiri atas mempelajari unsur leksikal, struktur gramatikal, situasi komunikasi, dan konteks budaya dari teks BS, menganalisisnya untuk menentukan makna dan selanjutnya merekontruksinya dengan makna dan informasi yang sama dengan menggunakan leksikal, struktur gramatikal yang sesuai dengan BT dan juga konteks budaya yang terdapat di dalamnya. Sebuah hasil terjemahan dinilai baik apabila hasil terjemahan tersebut mampu mentransfer makna dan informasi yang terdapat dalam Bahasa Sumber (BS) ke Bahasa Target (BT) dengan akurat (accurate), jelas (clear) dan pilihan kata yang alami ( natural). Larson (1998) menyebutkan bahwa ketiga elemen tersebut adalah tiga parameter yang harus diperhatikan dalam membuat hasil terjemahan baik dan bisa diterima oleh pembaca atau pengguna hasil terjemahan tersebut. Fadaee (2011) menyebutkan bahwa naturalness dan accuracy serta clarity adalah salah satu elemen penting dalam mengevaluasi hasil terjemahan. Dia juga menambahkan bahwa terjemahan yang natural tidak seperti hasil terjemahan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi dan mengetahui keberterimaan hasil terjemahan mahasiswa Jurusan Pariwisata Politeknik Negeri Bali yang akan meliputi tingkat kealamian ( naturalness) dimana ini juga akan meliputi aspek keakuratan ( accuracy) dan kejelasan ( clarity) pada hasil terjemahan dimana pilihan kata yang dipakai di hasil terjemahan tersebut. Hasil terjemahan yang alami akan menghasilkan makna yang akurat dan jelas dan alami seperti apa yang biasa dipakai di Bahasa Sumber (BS). Larson (1998) mengajukan cara untuk mengevaluasi hasil terjemahan. Salah satunya adalah dengan menggunakan metode back translation. Dalam hal ini, seorang konsultan penerjemahan yang bilingual melakukan penerjemahan kembali dari hasil terjemahan yang telah dibuat dan selanjutnya dibandingkan dengan teks aslinya. Metode back translation dipakai dalam penelitian ini selain analisa hasil terjemahan untuk mengetahui dan mengidentifikasi tingkat keberterimaan dari hasil terjemahan yang dikerjakan mahasiswa. Bahasa Sumber disini adalah teks Bahasa Indonesia dan Bahasa Target adalah hasil terjemahan dalam Bahasa Inggris. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa tingkat keberterimaan makna hasil terjemahan mahasiswa Jurusan Pariwisata Politeknik Negeri Bali masih perlu ditingkatkan. Mereka masih banyak membuat kesalahan-kesalahan pada tingkat gramatika dasar Bahasa Inggris dan pemilihan kata yang kurang tepat. Hal ini mengakibatkan menjadi kurang natural. Kata kunci: terjemahan, kealamian, keakuratan, kejelasan, back translation

9 ABSTRACT THE ACCEPTABILITY OF TRANSLATION WORKS DONE BY THE TOURISM DEPARTMENT STUDENTS OF BALI STATE POLYTECHNIC Translator should be able to bridge meaning and information of Source Language (TL) to Target Language (TL) well. Larson (1998:3) exemplifies that translation consists of studying the lexicon, grammatical structure, communication situation, and the cultural context of SL text, analyzing in order to determine its meaning, and then reconstructing this same meaning and message using the lexicon and grammatical structure appropriate in the target language and its cultural context. A translation product is considered to be good when it can transfer meaning and information of Source Language (SL) to Target Language (TL) accurately, clearly and naturally. Larson (1998) stated that those three parameters should be highly considered in making good and acceptable by the reader as well user of the translation product. Fadaee (2011) stated that naturalness as well as accuracy and clearness is one of the main features of evaluating translation. She further claimed that a natural translation result seems like it is not a product of translation. The aim of this study is to identify and know the acceptability of the translation works done by Students of Tourism Department of Bali State Polytechnic. This will involve the naturalness that the accuracy and clarity of the meaning were taken into consideration. A natural translation may produce accurate and clear meaning in the translation. Larson (1 998) proposed ways of testing translation. One of them is by doing back-translation. In this test, someone else who is bilingual in the receptor and the source language should make a back translation of the translated text into the source language. This method was applied to evaluate the translation works besides analyzing them in order to know and identify the acceptability of the students translation. The source language here is Indonesian while the target language is English. The findings showed that the acceptability referring to accuracy, clarity and naturalness of the students translation works done by Students of Tourism Department of Bali State Polytechnic still need greatly to be improved. There were many basic English Grammar mistakes made by the students as well as wrong diction or choice of words to transfer meaning from SL to TL. This may result in the transfer of meaning could not be done well and made the translation was considered to be less natural. Keywords: translation, naturalness, accuracy, clarity, back translation ix
