Abstract

The objectives of this study were to analyze the translation strategies from the English Language to the Thai Language in the Novel 'The Wizard of Oz' by using Baker's taxonomy as a framework to categorize and divide the translations into eight strategies. The findings showed that seven of eight Baker's translation strategies were found in the novel which was translated by cultural substitution, translation by a more general word, translation by a more neutral/less expressive word, translation using a loan word or loan word plus explanation, translation by omission using related words, translation by paraphrasing using related words, and translation by paraphrasing using unrelated words. The frequency of translation strategies used showed that translation by cultural substitution (57.07%) was the mostly found in translation and translation by paraphrasing using unrelated words (0.69%) was the least finding in translation but one of strategy that was not found in translation was translation by illustration.
