Communicative translation
The term „grotesque‟ according to Oxford dictionary means „ugly or absurd
in offensive way ‟. Because Poe‟s works are well-known with a gothic, the
translator is trying in his or her language to make it feel same with the original by translating the word „grotesque‟ into mengerikan rather than translate it into aneh
or jelek.
