The Requirement for the Target Text Grammar

describes they are not careful or clever. The style of the utterance may be natural for the source text readers. However, it sounds clumsy and unnatural for the target text readers. Therefore, it is translated into the target expression’s form in order to make it natural. SE : ‘There’s the red-headed boy over there- he’s gone to his tea or something.’ Said Bets, pointing. TE : ‘ D tu-disana-rupanya ia hendak jajan’ 567S.210T.265S.DV3 The example above is included into the scalar explicitation. The expression ‘gone to his tea or something’ is translated into ‘ hendak jajan.’ According to the E xford F dvanced G earner’s H ictionary, the word ‘tea’ means a light meal. Hence, the expression ‘gone to his tea or something’ can be describes an activity of looking for a light meal. Besides, the story tells that it was the lunch time.

Therefore, the expression above is translated into ‘ hendak jajan’ gone to look for a light meal. The word ‘jajan’ sounds devoted to the target text readers and it is natural too. SE : ‘He pedaled furiously, his face hot and red. TE ;‘Mukanya merah padam. Rupanya kepanasan.

The expression does not make the target text readers confused because it is the style of the target text form. It is also natural in the target text.

d. The Truly Implied Information in the Source Text

This reason is used as the reason of categorical explicitation. By managing the implicit information to be explicit in the target text is needed because the information is truly implied in the source text. The examples are presented bellow. SE : ‘Don’t you cheek me, young Bets’ said Pip, sitting up. TE : ‘Jangan kurang ajar ya’ tukas Pip sambil duduk. ‘Kau jauh muda daripadaku,Ayo ambilkan air es-…’ 017S.4T.11C.DS4 The example above is the categorical explicitation. The spelling out of ‘Ayo ambilkan air es’ come on, get some iced water does not found in the source expression. The information is truly implied in the source text. In the story, Pip asked Bets to get some iced water. However, Bets seems do not want to do it. Then Pip sit up and at the same time he just said ‘Don’t you cheek me, young
