There are translation shows that the translator attempt to represent the atmosphere and culture from the source language. And the
translator wants to culture and source language to present the maximum. The purpose that the readers know and enriched by reading something
from foreign language By the same token, Benjamin Jowett, the distinguished Victorian
translator of Plato, asserted that a translation “should be based, in the first distance, on an intimate knowledge of the text,’ but also that “it should
read as original work,” concealing not merely its status as a translation, but the translator’s decision to “sacrifice minute accuracy for sake of clearness
and sense.

Cause the accuracy of meaning from the text becomes the first thing to be considered in the translation text.

B. Data Analysis
From the tabulated data above that contains 10 cultural words which are chosen by consideration whether it is culture-specific item or not, the
writer tries to classify and analyze the selected cultural words by using the relevant theories. The data can be analyzed as follow:
1. Nanny
Nanny at the ready Nanny siap sedia
In data 1 shows, Nanny as the cultural words that refers to Idea Traditional Address is translated into Nanny. It can be identified that the
translator from this novel, Siska Yuanita, uses the foreignization ideology in which she preserves the phrase Nanny in its original word. The word
Nanny it is not translated into a word pengasuh in Indonesia that has a proportional meaning. The translator keeps that word in the target term,
even thought there is a word in Indonesian language that can be rendered and has an equivalent meaning.
29
The word Nanny has a meaning “A person employed to care for children in a household”
43
in English culture concept. The word pengasuh in Indonesia refers to “wanita yang dipekerjakan untuk menjaga anak-anak”
44
. The translator attempt to represent the atmosphere and culture from the
source language.
45
Although there is equivalence in both concepts, in Indonesia culture nanny can be assumed to name for the person
so the translator uses italic because she wants the readers to know that word Nanny is
foreign language not name from person. The writer thinks that it would be better if the translator translate it in the appropriate target language which
represents the source language concept, but it’s better if the translator use domestication ideology as a target language of the translation. Looking in
analysis above, it can be assumed that foreignization ideology because the translation is focused in source language by borrowing the original word in
Target Language. Actually the Idea traditional address in this novel, the translator by
using foreignization ideology to translate. Like Grayer, Mrs. X, Mr. X, Grandma, Mommy, Dad. But the writer take the one of them for example and
analyze the word.
