This report was written based on the internship at Department of Tourism, Youth, and Sports of Pacitan Regency from 6th February until 6th March 2017. The objective of this internship report is to explain the activities during the internship at the Office of Tourism, Youth, and Sports of Pacitan Regency. The main activities during internship were translating and writing articles about tourist attractions in Pacitan in English to be published on the official website of Department of Tourism, Youth, and Sports of Pacitan Regency namely “pacitantourism.net”.
I translated description about tourist attractions of Pacitan given by the supervisor and wrote some articles. The difficulties encountered during internship were low quality of the source text, looking for acceptable words or appropriate terms, and internet connection problem. There were some strategies done by me to solve the problems, such as revising the source text, using online and offline dictionaries, discussing with internship partners, asking native speakers by chatting application, and using my smart phone to connect to the internet.
