Comparison between Audio-Llingual Method and The Silent Way

The audio-lingual method, like the Direct Method we have just examined, is also an oral-based approach.the Audio-lingual method drills students in the use of grammatical sentence patterns.it also, unlike the Direct Method, has a strong theoretical base in linguistics and psychology. The most important in Audio-Lingual Method Language learning based on habit formation. the more often something is repeated. the stronger the habit and the greater the learning. New vocabulary and structural patterns are presented through dialogs. The dialogs are learned through imitation and repetition.The purpose of this method is to form habit formation and speaking the target language automatically. Although people did learn languages through the Audio-lingual method, one problem with it was students inability to readily transfer the habits they had mastered in the classroom to communicative use outside it. The goals of this method is students should be able to use the language for self-expression-to express their thought, perceptions, and feelings.In order to do this, they need to develop independence from the teacher, to develop their own inner criteria for correctness. Students become independent by relying on themselves. The teacher, therefore, should give them only what they absolutely need to promote their learning. This situation is different with audio-lingual method where in the audio-lingual method the teacher has a role as a model for students.The learning process of the silent way is students begin their study of the language through its basic building blocks, its sounds. These are introduced through a language-specific sound-color chart. Relying on what sounds students already know from their knowledge of their native language, teachers lead their students to associate the sounds of the target language with particular colors. Later, these same colors are used to help students learn the spellings that correspond to the sounds and how to read and pronounce words properly.

Equivalence in Translation

Equivalence is the important thing that must be achieved in translation process, a translation product can be said successfully if the readers or listeners of that translation product do not know that they are reading or listening of translation product that means responds of the readers or listeners when they read and listen the source text is same when they read or listen the translation product. Equivalence can be said to be the central issue in translation. The thing that is found out of translator is the equivalence meaning from source language (SL) to target language (TL). The concept of equivalence nevertheless broadened out when the American Bible theorist and translator Eugene Nida (1964) recognized the polarities ‘dynamic equivalence’ (same function) and ‘formal equivalence’ (same form, probably with a different function). There were thus different kinds of equivalence that could be established, independently of whatever was considered ‘natural’ before the translator ente

JENIS-JENIS GAYA BAHASA

Menurut Gorys Keraf (2009:115), gaya bahasa terbagi menjadi dua bagian yaitu dari segi nonbahasa dan segi bahasa.

EXAMPLES OF TRANSLATION PRINCIPLES

Based on Allan Duff, the principles of translation must be following these: 1.       Meaning:  the translation should reflect the meaning accurately. For example: I'd never given much thought to how I would die — though I'd had reason enough in the last few months— but even if I had, I would not have imagined it like this. Aku tidak pernah terlalu memikirkan bagaimana aku akan mati, meskipun aku punya cukup alasan  beberapa bulan terakhir ini, tapi kalaupun memiliki alasan, aku tak pernah membayangkan akan seperti ini. (Source: Twilight and its translation) I stared without breathing across the long room, into the dark eyes of the hunter, and he looked pleasantly back at me. Aku menatap ruangan panjang itu tanpa bernafas, ke dalam mata gelap sang pemburu, dan ia balas menatapku senang. 2.       Form: The words order should match the original as closely as possible. Example: She hugged me tightly for a minute, and then I got on the plane, and she was go
