Summary
Translation is one of the applied linguistics that transfer the meaning from the source language to the target language. Based on the definitions of translation above, the understanding of multi-word verbs is really important for the translator to make the closest equivalence from the data source. The verbs can be used to get the closest relationship with other people through expressing vivid, emotional and frequently slangy points in daily activities. It will be different for non-English speakers when interpreting the verbs. The previous researchers who have similar focus of discussion are Eni, Artawa, Udayana (2017) and Santika, Putri, Suastini (2017). Their researches discuss about one type of multi-word verbs, that is, phrasal verbs. The meanings of phrasal verbs in SL determine the suitable equivalents for the phrasal verbs in TL since there were variants equivalents given in the translations
