C. DISCUSSION
Discussions are made to answer the problem statements that have been mentioned in the first chapter and relate them with the theory which have been
mentioned in the second chapter.
1. The types of Adjustment that are employed to solve the problems in
translating one sentence direct-speech sentences from English into Indonesian in
J.K Rowlings novel Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows ?
According to Nida 1964 there are three types of Adjustment, namely: Addition, Subtraction, and Alteration. The research finding as can be seen in the
table 4.1, suggests that 52 data 34.62 employ alterations, 50 data 33.26 employ additions, 32 data 21.28 employ subtractions in realizing the
adjustment. Besides, the researcher finds 16 data 10.6 have two kinds of adjustment.
As it is shown in the table 4.1, in terms of alteration, the highest point is alteration of semantic problems involving exocentric expression 15.3,
followed by alteration of word order 10.0, alteration of semantic problems involving single words 4.66, alteration of word class 2.00, alteration of
clause and sentence structure 1.33, and alteration of categories 1.33. The data suggest that alteration of sound is not found in the samples.
In terms of addition, the highest point is addition by amplification from implicit to explicit status 13.3, followed by addition by obligatory

specification 11.3, addition by filling out elliptical expressions 8, and addition by connectives 0.66. Amplification sentences are frequently used in
translation of one sentence direct-speech. Therefore, the translator needs to add some words in the TL text to clarify the meaning in TL more explicitly. Five types
of addition namely addition required by grammatical restructuring, answer rhetorical question, classifier, categories of receptor language and doublets are not
found in the samples. In terms of subtractions, the highest point is subtraction of specification of
reference 11.3, followed by subtraction of formulae 5.33, subtraction of categories 2.66, subtraction of repetition 1.33, and subtraction of
conjunction 0.66. The data suggest that transitional, and vocatives are not found in the samples.
The 16 data that employs two kinds of Adjustments, 4 of them addition and subtraction, 5 others employ subtraction and alteration, 4 data use addition
and alteration, 1 datum has two kinds of addition, and 2 data employ two kinds of alteration.
The technique of alteration is the most frequent used by the translator then followed by addition and subtraction.
