The Analysis of Translation Techniques used in Translating Slang words on Disney Cartoon ‘’Turning Red”
Keywords:
translation techniques, slang words, adaptation, animated movie, Turning Red.Abstract
This study analyzes the translation techniques applied to slang words in Disney’s animated movie Turning Red.
Slang words, often culturally and socially embedded, pose challenges in translation, especially for films targeting
young audiences. The research aims to identify the types of translation techniques used, the most dominant
technique, and their impact on audience comprehension. Using Molina and Albir’s (2002) classification of
translation techniques, this study found that the adaptation technique was the most frequently used, followed by
established equivalence and modulation. The findings suggest that adaptation plays a crucial role in ensuring
that slang words are effectively conveyed in the target language without losing their meaning and cultural
significance.
