N2  - Translating proverb is not an easy task since it is not only about words, but also 
about cultures. The research entitled ?Students? Error in Translating Indonesian 
Proverbs into English? is aimed to find out students? errors in translating 
Indonesian proverbs into English. The research is conducted at English 
Education Study Program, Faculty of Teacher Training and Educational 
Sciences, Pakuan University. In conducting the research, descriptive method is 
used. The data are taken from the students? work, questionnaire and interview 
note. The research participants are the fifth semester students of English 
Education Study Program. The research result shows that the students make an 
error in translating Indonesian proverbs into English. They still translate the 
proverbs word by word. The students got difficulties in finding equivalent 
proverbs in the target language. Lack of knowledge about proverbs also 
becomes a reason why they make an error in translating Indonesian proverbs. 
Based on the result of the research, the researcher suggests that to translate 
proverbs, the students have to enrich their knowledge about proverb and its 
cultural background in order to get the appropriate meaning.
