Abstract

This study discusses the influence of culture in the translation of onomatopoeia in comic, from French into Indonesian. The comic used in this study is the SMURF comic, entitled Schtroumpfette, which is the second comic published in the Smurf comic series. This comic was made by Peyo and published in 1967 and has been translated by Nies into Indonesian in 1986 with the title Smurfin. This study used descriptive qualitative methods. The data collected through several preparations using literature review, reading, note-taking and using sample data selection by purposive samples, so that only onomatopoeia data is taken from the comic. The results show there are several onomatopoeias that were translated not in accordance with the source language and discussed the development of culture prevailing in the target language. This is based on the development of different socio-cultural life in France and Indonesia. The use of adaptation translation techniques is widely applied to onomatopoeia translation in this Schtroumpfette, comic.
