Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) in language education is so great that it can become essential in learning and teaching languages, especially foreign languages, and mastering listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills. Likewise, in translating from Indonesian to English, AI products in machine translation and editing applications help speed up the translation process and produce more accurate translations. The students I teach usually translate Indonesian texts into English manually without AI usage, so the translation results are less accurate; for example, the grammar is not correct, the choice of vocabulary is erroneous, the sentence structure is not standard, and the writing mechanism is not by standard spelling. The aim of the study is to improve students’ translation quality, especially translation accuracy. In this research used Classroom Action Research (CAR) as the research method. This research involved ten students as the participants with poor translation skills. The research instruments are translation tests and Google Translate and Grammarly Combination (GTG-Com) Application. The research steps I conducted are firstly, students translated the text using Google Translate, secondly, they edited the translation products using the Grammarly App. Based the result of research it was found that GTG-Com improved the students’ translation quality. Their translation accuracy is now better than before, more accurate. The translation accuracy increased from inaccurate to less accurate (60%) and from less accurate to accurate (40%), from 1.4 to 2.6, so the average progress score of each student is 2. It can be concluded that the combination of Google Translate and Grammarly (GTG-Com) App is very significant to translate texts and edit the translation results and produced more accurate translation products.
