- Abstract
The phenomenon of the absorption of new words from foreign languages is nothing new. For example, the onomatopoeic and mimetic words continue to develop in various languages and have different forms from one language to another language. This study attempts to investigate Korean and Indonesian onomatopoeic-mimetic word forms and to investigate the procedure for translating onomatopoeic and mimetic words from Korean into Indonesian. This study was conducted by using the descriptive qualitative method. The researchers described the word forms and the procedures of translating the onomatopoeic and mimetic words. The data were collected from the Webtoon “The Secret of Angel” or 여신강림 [Yeosinganglim] by Yaongyi. The researchers took screenshots of the onomatopoeic-mimetic words from the Webtoon. The data were then analyzed, involving the iterative framework from data reduction, data display to conclusion. The findings showed that the Korean onomatopoeic-mimetic word forms were singular, repeated, and combined, while the Indonesian onomatopoeic-mimetic forms were monosyllable, multi-syllable, and repeated form. The translation procedures were borrowing procedures, literal procedures, modulation procedures, transposition procedures, equivalent procedures, and adaptation procedures.
