ANALYSIS OF ENGLISH DESCRIPTIVE TEXTS IN A BATIK MUSEUM IN INDONESIA: LANGUAGE ACCURACY AND CULTURAL REPRESENTATION
Full text linkThis study aims to analyze the linguistic accuracy and cultural representation in English descriptive texts in a Batik museum in Indonesia.

It recommends strategies like transcreation and collaboration with language experts to produce informative, accurate, and culturally sensitive content for a global audience
