Abstract

A language cannot be separated from the background and the origin of the place from which it comes. Language may refer either to the specifically human capacity for acquiring and using complex systems of communication, or to a specific instance of such as a system of a complex communications. It is the expression of thought, with the translation of notion into words being the act of understanding. People usually find metaphor while using language in their communication which changes the real meaning of what someone wants to tell about with the deviated meaning. metaphor is defined as a figurative language which used a word or a phrase referring to a certain object or activity to replace other words or phrases so that there is similarity or analogy between both. As a linguistic device, metaphor can be found in any human language. In this case, I chose to analyze a song entitled Tembang Dolanan ( one of traditional song for the children from Java) Tembang Dolanan have noble values of the national culture. Unfortunately, Tembang Dolanan today get less attention from the government and related agencies. At the end of today's children are less familiar with the song, Tembang Dolanan is less attractive and eroded by age. Tembang Dolanan  means to have fun in their spare time and also as a means of communication that contain educational messages.

The data were then analyzed by usingreader-response technique to find out the readers’ responsetoward the puns and jokes that have been translated intoIndonesian. After analyzing the data, the results indicate thatmost students experienced difficulties to translate the punsfrom English to Indonesia. The biggest challenge that thestudents encountered is not only in translating the culturalhumor, but also in translating the linguistic humor and theuniversal humor. Students who implement free translationmethod and domesticating ideology were able to produce abetter target language oriented translation to let the readersunderstand the humor behind the puns and the jokes they read.These findings suggest that the solution to the challenge oftranslating puns is that students should use free translation anddomesticating ideology in translating cultural text, such aspuns and jokes.

Abstract

Language is a very essential instrument in communication. According to Oxford Advanced Learners Dictionary of Current English, language is “(1)The system of sounds and words used by humans to express their thoughts and feelings, (2) the particular language system used by a people or nation” (Hornby, 1995). It means people can express their ideas, thoughts, feelings, and desires by language. People have to learn language and master four basic language skills. They are listening, speaking, reading, and writing. The four basic language skills are divided into two media for language communication: 1) receiving the message, i.e.,reading and listening, 2) and sending the message, i.e., speaking and writing. These skills are used for completing communication when people learn about language.
