Abstract

We often use booster in daily activities, especially in assertive speech acts that indirectly the resulting booster expression and it is no exception in a work of literary novel The ABC Murder (1936) by Agatha Christie which has been translated many times until to two decades, so that any booster can be changed or evolved. Thus, it raises the question of how the translator translates an assertive speech act word that contain booster to a two-decade translation and what technique is used. The data used The ABC Murder (1936) by Agatha Christie and two translated versions of 2017 and 1976. The approach used in this study is a qualitative method with document analysis purposive sampling with the classification of translation techniques used. The results show that 1) the booster shape evolved in 2017 and 1976. Furthermore, there were some booster words that shifted from answering to stating in The ABC Murder's novel and two versions of translation 2) Translation techniques that often appear are established equivalence and literal translation.
