Abstract
Clause complex is a relation between clause and further clause to create sequence or flow of information. It is part of logical metafunction. Its relations are divided into conjunctive relations, taxis, and logico-semantic relation. Translating clause complex often poses a problem for translators because it relates to mode of meaning. This study, thus, aims to find 1) the pattern of logical choices, including conjunctive relations, taxis, and logico-semantic relations and 2) the translation shifts in mode of meaning in Hades Does Home Improvement by using a qualitative method. From the findings, firstly, 132 complex clauses are found in the ST and 133 are found in the TT. The ST is realized with 129 external conjunctions and 3 clauses with continuative. The TT is realized with 125 external conjunction, 3 clauses with continuative, and 5 clauses changing from complex to simplex. In both the ST and the TT, the preferred taxis system is parataxis and the most employed logico-semantic type is enhancement. Secondly, three translation shifts are found: 1) from textual to logical metafunction (complex into simplex), 2) from logical to textual metafunction (explicit into implicit and vice versa), and 3) between logical metafunction, including taxis shift and logico-semantic realization shift. The similarities of the clause complex relation in ST and TT are stimulated by the similar system of logical choice in the ST and the TT,
