Abstract

This study discuss about the impact of cohesion shift levels on translation accuracy. The aims of this study to find out a) a dominant cohesion shift level, b) the impact of the dominant level on translation accuracy, c) the dominant category changes caused by dominant level, d) the level of cohesion shift which have a positive impact on translation accuracy. This research used descriptive qualitative method to achive the objectives of study. There are two kinds of data in this study, the first is obejctive which consist of 562 data and the second is affective in the form of number (1-3). The objective data was collected through observation and content analysis while the affective data was collected through questionnaire and depth-interview. The result of this research shown that a) cohesion shift in the level of implicitation is dominant (217 shifts), b) implicitatioan influence a negative impact on translation accuracy (2,45), c) the dominant changes of category on implicitation level are phrase become Ø and phrase become phrase (36 shifts), d) cohesion shift in the level of explicitation is a well strategy than the other levels. Translators are able to improve the accuracy of translation by applying cohesion shift in the level of explicitation.
