Abstract

Translation is an activity in which words are transferred from the source language (SL) to the target language (TL) without altering their significance, and modulation is sometimes occurs in translating a text form the source text to target text. The purpose of this study was to analyze the existence of modulation in the translation of figurative language that occurred in Dahl‟s The Big Friendly Giant; they were abstract for concrete, negation of opposite, part another part, reversal of term, active for passive, space for time, explicative modulation, interval and limit, and change of symbols. This research uses a qualitative approach. Qualitative research presents research data in the form of sentences and words, not in the form of numbers. Data were analyzed to find three types of figurative languages namely metaphor, personification and idiom and find the variations of modulation; abstract for concrete, negation of opposite, part another part, reversal of term, active for passive, space for time, explicative modulation, interval and limit, and change of symbols. Data can be in the form of words, phrases and sentences. Finally after conducting the research, I find 79 sentences figurative language that consists of metaphor, personification and idiom from all chapters (chapter 1-24). They are metaphor (10 items), personification (38 items) and idiom (31 items). The findings show that from 9 types of modulation, the writer found 5 kinds of modulation. There are abstract for concrete, negation of opposite, change of symbols, reversal of terms and space for time.
