Abstract

There are idiomatic expressions in every language, and often times, those idiomatic expression cannot be translated literally. Therefore, translation plays an important role in transferring the meaning. We have to understand the cultural background of the language in order to grasp the intended meaning of said idioms. There are a lot of cultural influence in language usage, particularly in literary works such as novels, dramas, and movies.
