Table 33. Fifteenth Source Text with the Most Readable Target Text
Seven respondents vote for F1, six respondents vote for F2, one respondent votes for M1, and six respondents vote for M2. It shows that F1
produces the most readable translation. Every word, phrase, and sentence is literally translated, and seven respondents agree that the literal translation makes
the TL readable. For the evidence, F1 translates “I am not commanding you” into “Aku tidak memerintah mu”. It is readable since the message is delivered clearly.
C. Analysis on the Influence of Translators’ Gender
Women and men are considered to have different uses of language in daily life. There are some assumption where people believe that gender influences
anything in life such as language, thought, and attitude. Such hidden feeling or attitude of female and male can be reflected through the language usage of both
female and male. In the data used in this research, there are some data that portray specific
expressions that glorify that female and male do have their “own way” of using language for different objectives, namely promoting autonomy or independence
by male translators or promoting intimacy by female translators. Most of the texts are translated with the dynamic equivalence, and they deliver the meaning of the
56
text well. It makes the texts readable. Besides, the translation that is clasified as the dynamic equivalence makes the readers able to understand the idea clearly.

ST6030 I looked at Jamie, then up to the ceiling and around the room,
doing my best to keep my composure, then back to Jamie, again. She smiled at me and I smiled at her and all I could do was
wonder how I‟d ever fallen in love with a girl like Jamie Sullvian.
1TTF1 Aku menatap Jamie lekat-lekat, menengadah kelangit-langit dan
memandang kesekeliling ruangan, berusaha sekuat tenaga menahan emosiku. Kutatap Jamie lagi. Ia balas tersenyum
kepadaku, dan aku tersenyum. Ya Tuhan, bagaimana aku bisa jatuh cinta kepada gadis seperti Jamie Sullivan ini.
2TTF2 Kupandangi Jamie. Aku menengadah melihat langit-langit dan
sekeliling ruangan, dan dengan sebaik mungkin aku bersikap tenang, sebelum tatapanku kembali ke Jamie lagi. Dia tersenyum
padaku, dan aku membalas senyumnya. Dan yang bisa kulakukan hanya bertanya-tanya, bagaimana bisa aku jatuh hati
kepada seorang gadis seperti Jamie Sullivan.
3TTM1 Aku memandangi Jamie, lalu langit-langit dan seluruh sudut ruangan, berusaha sebaik yang kubisa untuk terlihat tenang, dan
kembali Jamie lagi. Dia tersenyum; aku membalasnya, dan yang ada di benakku: bagaimana mungkin aku bisa jatuh cinta pada
gadis seperti Jamie Sullvian.
4TTM2 Aku menatap Jamie, kemudian pada langit-langit ruangan, berusaha melakukan yang terbaik untuk mempertahankan

lakukan ialah berpikir bagaimana bisa aku jatuh cinta pada seorang gadis seperti Jamie Sullivan.
