We can see the translation from source language You see those others flowers? Into target language Lihat bunga-bunga yang lain? In the data, it shows Noah asks to the Ham to see the flowers. The word you as a pronoun that refers to Ham who the person being asked. That’s why the underlined word does not translate, it is to make the translation can be simple and does not repeat the word’s meaning in the target language.

Aku melihat gunungnya. In the data, Naemah, Noah’s wife asks him about his grandfather condition, then Noah says to her, I don’t. I saw his mountain, it is written in the source language text. Meanwhile it can be read Aku tak tahu. Aku melihat gunungnya in the target language. The word tahu is gained in the target language to emphasize the meaning of the text. Moreover, the adding word makes the target language sounds more natural, so it is more acceptable to be read by the watchers. The other reason is to addition the meaning in the target language. As the result of the study, the writer concluded that the loss and gain occurred in the movie subtitle because the result of the translation sounds more natural, acceptable and understandable by the target watchers in the target language.
