AN ANALYSIS OF THE CONJUNCTIVE RELATION IN THE NOVEL

PRAY, EAT, LOVE ITS TRANSLATION INTO INDONESIAN

Conjunctive elements are cohesive not in themselves but directly, by virtue of their specific
meanings; they are not primarily devices for reaching out into the preceding (or following) text, but
they express certain meanings which presuppose the presence of other components in the discourse
(Halliday: 1976:266)
Conjunction refers to the use of formal markers to link sentences or the bigger parts of text,
which also realize semantic relations between parts of text and; therefore, functions as a cohesive
device. Baker (1991: 191)
Based on the types of connectives used, cohesion in Indonesian language expresses the
relation of contrast or adversative; realized by connectives tetapi or namun, exclusion; realized by
connectives kecuali, emphasis: realized by connectives malahan or bahkan concession realized by
connectives walaupun or meskipun and purpose realized by connectives agar or supaya.
In general, therefore, conjunctive adjunct can be divided into three kinds:
a) adverbs, including: simple adverbs ('coordinating conjunctions'), eg: but, so then, next
compound adverbs in - ly, e.g: accordingly, subsequently, actually compound adverbs in there- and
where-, e.g therefore, thereupon
b) other compound adverbs, e.g.: furthermore, nevertheless, anwor- instead. Besides prepositional
phrases, e.g.; on the contrary, as a result, in addition.
c) Prepositional expression with that or other reference item, the latter being (i) optional, e.g. as a
result of that or instead of that (ii) obligatory, e.g.: in spite of that, because of that

Bosco classified translation techniques or strategies into two types, direct and oblique.
Direct translation techniques are used when there are conceptual elements that can

be transposed into the target language. Bosco classified those techniques as follows
1. Borrowing 2. Calque

3. Literal translation

Bosco claimed that these techniques are used when the translator cannot translate elements from the
source language without adjusting or changing the meaning, the grammatical and stylistic elements
of the target language. Oblique translation includes:
1. Transposition
4. Adaptation

2. Modulation

3. Reformulation or equivalence

5. Compensation

Research problem / Problems of study :

2. How are the conjunctive relations translated in the target language?
2. What kinds of procedures are applied by the translator in translating conjunctive relations in the
novel?

AN ANALYSIS OF EXPERIENTIAL FUNCTION IN BUSINESS
TEXT IN JAKARTA POST NEWSPAPER

Experiental function covers the process of verbs groups. A process is realized by a verb group; a
participant by a nominal group; a circumstance by an adverbial group or a prepositional phrase. On
the other hand, a process may be material (a process of doing), mental (a process of sensing), or
relational (a process of being), behavioral (psychological or physiological behavior, e.g. laughing,
dreaming, smiling, breathing, kissing, coughing, frowning and so on), verbal (a process of saying),
and existential (something/someone exists, happens or occurs usually with there)
