Abstract :
There are many ways that could be done to introduce culture of a country to the international world,
one of them is through translation works. This research is conducted by using qualitative approach
and content analysis method. The data used in this research are words and phrases found in ?Laut
Bercerita (The Sea Speaks His Name)? novel by Leila S. Chudori. In this novel, there are many
cultural terms, local language from Javanese people, and dictions so that when they are translated to
English, they would be interesting because some of the terms, local language and dictions still do
not have equivalences in Target Language. In this research, I have analyzed 45 data and divided to
2 categories; 19 data in word category, and 26 data in phrase one. The research findings consist of
dynamic equivalence, formal equivalence, and equivalence at word levels for 1evel, and as for
translation strategy they are adaptation, communicative translation, semantic translation, descriptive
equivalence, idiomatic translation, literal translation, through translation, and transference. The most
often strategies used are adaptation, communicative translation, and semantic translation. Through
this research, I have knowledge of translation equivalence and how translation strategy being applied
to words and phrases.
