Abstract
This study aims to analyze the English figurative language and its equivalent translation into
Indonesian found in the tourism magazine. The qualitative descriptive method is used in this
study to analyze the data. The source of the data was a tourism magazine, Api Bali, EnglishIndonesian version. Data were collected from Api Bali Magazine, Vol. 30. The theory of
figurative language types by Tarigan (2009) and lexical equivalent translation, which is used
to obtain word equivalence in figurative language by Larson (1998), is used in this study. The
result showed that there were five types of figurative language found in the tourism magazine:
metaphor, simile, hyperbole, personification, and euphemism. The equivalent translation of
figurative language uses related words as equivalents for metaphor and personification,
descriptive phrases for hyperbole, and simile and euphemism use literally translation from
source language to target language
