F1‟s and F2‟s translations are categorized into the dynamic equivalence because F1 translates “It wasn‟t that long” into “Ciuman yang tak terlalu lama”.
F2 also translates “It wasn‟t that long” into “dia menciumku tak terlalu lama”. F1 translates “but it was wonderful in its own way” into “Namun ciuman itu sangat
istimewa dalam keunikannya”. F1 always refers “it” into “kiss”. It is seen in the sentence above. F1 also translates “own way” into “keunikannya”. It is dynamic
equivalence because the translator only focuses on the meaning and modulates the structures. Based on the F1
‟s and F2‟s translations, the “it” refers into “a kiss” that is not that long, proven by the Indonesian verbs
“menciumku” and “ciuman” which belong to the meaning of “kiss”.
In contrast, M1 transl ates into “singkat saja”, M2 translates into “tidak
terlalu lama memang”. From the data stated above, two subjects can be classified as the formal equivalence because they retain the literal meaning and the structure
of the ST. M1 and M2 use the correct and standard form of language. No.
