modulation. The use of modulation can change the point of view of the source text into target text.
The use of oblique translation can give deep understand about the message from the source language that appear in the target language because it involves the
conciliation of the words in SL which are not similar in TL. Therefore Atmiyati and Basari 2015 found that the most dominant strategy in translating Qonita In
The Old House novel was adaptation. It happened because the translator tried to make new situation by adding, lossing, or skewing the information, by changing
the cultural words in SL into the acceptable words in TL. The study also showed that the use of equivalence strategy is to make the language in the TL as natural as
in the SL. Oblique translation is useful in translating the novel because the translators
can not only applied the direct or word for word translation in their work. If the translators use the literal translation in all parts of the novel, the messages of the
novel will be not communicative in target text. Every language has its own cultural background, if all the words translated literally to target language without
changing or adapting the cultural background, the target readers may not understand the message.
In translating process, the translator usually begins with word, clause, sentence, paragraph, and finally the text. One complex sentence consists of many
clauses, thus the writer chose clause unit to analayze in this study, where the focus of the study are shown below in the problems.
B. The Problems of the Study
Based on the background of the study described above, there were two problems of the study:
1. What kinds of oblique translation strategy applied in the novel The Fault
in Our Stars? 2.
What are the effects of using oblique translation in the novel The Fault in Our Stars?
C. The Objectives of the Study
The objectives of this study based on the problems described previously were:
1. To find out the kinds of oblique translation strategy in the novel The Fault
in Our Stars. 2.
To find out the effects of using oblique translation in the novel The Fault in Our Stars.
D. The Scope of the Study
There are many aspects in translation that can be analyzed, such as translation procedure, translation process, translation shift, and translation
equivalent. But, the writer focused on analyzing the translation procedure in John Green’s novel The Fault In Our Stars and its translation version translated by
Ingrid Dwijani Nimpoeno by using Vinay and Darbelnet theory about oblique
translation in Munday and Hatim, 2004 to find out the kinds of strategy applied in the novel and their effects.
E. The Significance of the Study
There are two significances of the study, which are theoretical and practical significances. Theoretically, this study is expected to be useful for readers
especially the students of English to add the knowledge about translation, translation procedures, and the problems of translation itself. Practically, this
study is expected to be useful for the next researcher as a comparison in translation field.

CHAPTER V CONCLUSIONS AND SUGGESTIONS
A. Conclusions
After analyzing the oblique translation strategy in The Fault In Our Stars novel by John Green and its Indonesian language version translated by Ingrid
Dwijani Nimpoeno, the writer described some conclusion as follow. 1.
There were four kinds of oblique translation strategy found in the analysis: transposition 40.4, modulation 16.8, equivalence 15.6, and
adaptation 23.2. Beside the four kinds of oblique translation strategy occured in the novel, there were also four kinds of combination strategy
occured, namely
transposition-modulation 1.6,
transposition- equivalence 1.2, transposition-adaptation 0.8, and modulation-
equivalence 0.4. 2.
Because of the use of oblique translation strategy, there were some shifts in the clauses of the novel, they were shift of word class, shift of point of
view, shift of style in translating the idiomatic expression, and shift of style in translating the clause which are influenced with cultural reference.
These shifts were the effects of using the four kinds of oblique translation strategy.
B. Suggestions
Based on the conclusions above, the suggestions were as follow. 1.
Theoretically, this study could be a reference for the readers especially the students of English department to add the knowledge about translation,
translation procedures, and the problems of translation itself, where this study focused on oblique translation, which is a strategy when the text can
not be translated literallly or word-for-word.
2.
Practically, this study can be a comparison for the next researcher in conducting a new research in translation filed.
