Abstract

This research analyze the conveyed messages from the source language to the target language, operating at the levels of words, phrases, clauses, or sentences through the implementation of 12 micro translation strategies. This translation research focuses on the Indonesian subtitle with its English transcript in character conversation within the animated movie entitled “Sleeping Beauty” released in 1959 as the data set. The data collection techniques used include observation, simple random sampling and non-participatory technique. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach since the data in this study are presented in the form of words or sentences. The analysis involves the application of the 12 micro strategies proposed by Schjoldager [31]. To assess the translation quality of the dialogues in the animated film “Sleeping Beauty”, the researchers apply the framework presented by Nababan [18]. Within this study, an analysis of the conversation in the animated films revealed the utilization of seven micro translation strategies: Condensation (30%), Direct Translation (20%), Substitution (10%), Explicitation (10%), Addition (10%), Adaptation (10%), and Direct Transfer (10%). Beyond examining these micro-translation strategies, the researchers also investigate the overall quality of the translation in the character dialogues in the animated Film “Sleeping Beauty.“.
