C. The Research Instrument
There are two different research instruments in this study. The first research instrument is the researcher. The researcher acts as the planner, the data
collector, the data analysis, and the reporter of the research result. The second research instrument is the data sheets to collect and classify the data.
D. Research Design
There are two different research design, those are follows.
1. Collecting the data
In collecting the data, the researcher first decided the movie being studied. Having got the movie, the researcher read the subtitle in both English and Bahasa
Indonesia. Next, the researcher compared between the English and Bahasa Indonesia subtitle to get the data needed.
2. Analysing and interpreting the data
There are some steps that are done to get the data analysis in the research. The steps are formulated as follows.
a. The data which are in the form of words, phrases, clauses and sentences of
The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn the movies and transcripts are taken and collected. The data are being analyzed based on the
unit shifts; upward and downward unit shifts. In analyzing, the researcher compared sentence to sentence between the source expression and the target
expression. b.
The effect of unit shifts to the meaning equivalence are being analysed whether it is equivalent complete, increased, or decreased or non-equivalent
no meaning or different meaning. After the meaning equivalence was analyzed, the researcher calculated the data according to the types of unit
shifts and the types of meaning equivalence. Finally, the researcher drew the conclusions from the occurring unit shifts found.
E. Trustworthiness
In qualitative research data trustworthiness is an effect to gain the data reliability. There are four requirements to gain data trustworthiness, credibility,
transferability, dependability, and conformability Moleong, 2001:173. In this study, the researcher uses credibility and dependability criteria to
achieve the trustworthiness; credibility serves as an inquiry to gain reliability. Reliability means data remains constant throughout various different measure
processes. Reliability assures that the analytical result represent something real. Together with dependability used in this study, the researcher achieves the
stability of the data and findings over several researchers. Therefore, to achieve the dependability, the researcher discusses the data and the result of the research
with his advisor and friends who have attended the translation concentration program to fulfill the validity.
