ABSTRAK

Translation is a crucial aspect of effective communication between individuals or groups who speak different languages. Each language has its unique set of codes and rules that regulate its grammar, form, and meaning. Without translation, it would be challenging to convey the intended message accurately. Therefore, translation is an essential part of communication between people who use different language. In producing a good translation, one of the challenges that translators may encounter is the difference in word structure and position between the source and target languages. These differences can make it difficult to convey the meaning of a sentence accurately. Translators may employ various techniques such as category shifts to minimize the loss of meaning when translating a text from one language to another. The focus of this study is to analyze the category shifts found in the translation of Instagram captions by motivasi.co. The objectives of the study are to recognize kinds of category shift found in the instagram caption and to investigate how category shift employed in the Instagram caption. The study utilizes descriptive qualitative research to explain the occurrence of category shifts in the translation of Instagram captions. The data were collected through documentation and analyzed using Catford's theory (1965) of category shift. The findings of the analysis reveal that there are four types of category shifts present in the translation of Instagram captions, namely structure shift, class shift, unit shift, and intra-system shift. After analyzing the data, a category shift was implemented in the translation. Although the resulting translation may be somewhat rigid, it remains easily understandable and conforms to Catford's (1965) theory of translation shift
