The objective of the study is to investigate whether there is a significant effect of mastering adaptation translation method on students’ ability in translating narrative text. This study is limited on the effect of mastering adaptation translation method in translating text. The study was conducted by using experimental quantitative design. The instrument for collecting the data was translation test technique. The data were obtained based on the scores of the students from experimental group and control group. Having analyzed the data, it was found that the difference of mean score from both of the experimental (85.52) and control group (69.85). The difference of experimental group and control group obtained that there is 4.473 from the t – test formula. Thus concluded that there is significant effect of mastering adaptation translation method on the students’ ability in translating narrative text. It is because the students who are taught by using adaptation translation method have higher scores and improvement than the students who are taught without using adaptation translation method.
