The data analysis is the process of systematically searching and arranging the collected data. The techniques of analyzing data were carried out in a constant
comparative method as follows.
1. Data Reduction
The data gathered were sorted out to find those that were compatible with the criteria established. It included selecting and classifying the valid and relevant
data based on the types of medical terms and the translation techniques that are used.
2. Data Organization
The reduced and fixed data were organized in three phases as well. The first step was descriptively analyzing the first formulated problem, the types of
medical terms. The researcher compared the data of the source language and the target language. The types of medical terms were determined by what type the
researcher found in the source language was. The second step was identifying the techniques employed by the translator
to translate medical terms into Bahasa Indonesia, as it is the second formulated problem. The classification was in accordance with the theory used in this
research. The findings were used to reveal the dominant translation techniques used by the translator in the translation process.
The third step was identifying the clarity of the translated medical terms. The analysis was carried out by the researcher and three respondents by using
open-closed questionnaire. Since the result will be subjective, each category was
concluded by the researcher based on the comments of respondents and also the result from the discussion session with each of them.
3. Data transferring
In analyzing the data, the researcher transferred the data into the data table and interpreting the data in some classifications in order to make the analysis
easier.
4. Coding
According to Taylor 2010, coding is the process of combing the data for themes, ideas and categories and then marking similar passages of text with a
code label so that they can be retrieved easily at a later stage for further comparison and analysis. Coding the data makes it easier to search the data, to
make comparisons and to identify any patterns that require further investigation. In this research, the code explains four elements: the sequence of the
datum, the type of medical terms, the translation technique, and the clarity level. The following figure illustrates the example of the coding.

Description
The presented data are discussed further in order to explain the correlation between either data or categories of analysis. In this research, the researcher used
the data findings and discussion to draw the common thread from three purposes
