Abstract

Linguistic textbooks recommended by lecturers often are in English. However, an issue always occurs, which is the inability to comprehend the whole message of the books because several students do not speak English or the books use advance level of wordings, which makes the students cannot grasp the materials completely. Such reasons drive them to use machine translation, such as Google Translate, to transfer the materials of the books from English to Indonesian. However, the result of the tool is not always reliable. As technology advances, more machine translations are developed, yet people still stick with Google Translate. Therefore, this study aims to examine and compare the result of machine translation tools for linguistic textbooks from English to Indonesian. The data source was the result of machine translation tools, such as Google Translate, DeepL, and ChatGPT. English textbooks about linguistic, such as syntax, semantics, and phonology were chosen to provide the data. The data were collected through documentation method with note-taking technique. The analysis was conducted by applying descriptive-qualitative method based on Bhattacharrya combined with micro linguistic theories. The result shows that ChatGPT is better to help students to translate the textbooks than Google Translate and DeepL. Current study implies that students are recommended to use ChatGPT to help them translate English materials that are difficult to understand. Keywords: machine translation, English, Indonesian, textbook
