Abstract

Cultural words are specific words for special kinds of "things", events or
customs which only exist in one language. People will find difficulty when they
read stories of foreign language because of their different culture. That is why a
translator is needed. The most difficulty faced by the translator is when he must
translate the cultural words of a story because of different cultures. In one side he
must be faithful with the content of the story but he also has to make the
translation as natural as possible.
In this research, the researcher tried to find out in what categories the
cultural words found in "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" novel are divided and
what procedures are employed by the translator to translate the cultural words in
the novel. In the end, the researcher come to the conclusion that cultural words
can be translated using some procedures. Most of cultural words were translated
using transference and literal translation. The cultural equivalent is needed when
the equivalent word does not exist in target language so the translator can
substitute it with cultural word ofTL.
In the end, the translator should be aware of one thing. He can treat
cultural words freely but it does not mean that he can put any words to substitute
the cultural words of SL but he has to make the translation as closest natural
equivalent to the source language message.
