Abstract

This study aims to analyze the students’ difficulties in translating idiomatic expression sentences at the sixth semester of English department of IAIN Langsa. It further discussed factors that cause difficulties in translating idiomatic expressions. This research approach used Qualitative Content Analysis. The subject of this research is 10 students of the sixth-semester of English education department, IAIN Langsa. Data collection techniques were tests and interviews. The finding of this research showed that students experienced lexical difficulties, grammatical difficulties, cultural difficulties, and stylistic difficulties in translating idiomatic expressions. These were due to the difficulty in finding the closest equivalent source language and the difficulty in finding the meaning that matches the meaning of the idiomatic expression. The factors that caused these difficulties were students' knowledge of idiomatic expressions were very lacking, cultural differences between English and Indonesian, students rarely used idiomatic expressions in speaking or writing in everyday life, and the difficulty in interpreting idiomatic expressions.
