meneruskan kepemilikan perusahaan Explanation: Makna yang bertalian dari Lexico (produk Oxford): succeed 2.1 no object Become the new rightful holder of an office, title, or property. Sebenarnya, kalimat di atas kurang kata depan. Seharusnya: to succeed to the company. karena succeed di sini adalah kata kerja intransitif. 💼 Terjemahan juga dapat [dan memang sebaiknya] diluweskan mengikuti konteks sebelum dan/atau sesudah, semisal: meneruskan kepemimpinan perusahaan. Ini karena sudah lazim bahwa pemilik [utama] perusahaan akan menjadi pemimpinnya (sebagai CEO, direktur, komisaris, dsb.) |

Reference: Revised English Reference information: "I am not the founder but I am next in line to succeed the company." has already been identified as not being correct formal English. However, the suggestions to amend this sentence to "I am not the founder but I am next in line to succeed to the company." are not appropriate, for two reasons: (1) the phrase "to succeed to" is not a very common phrase, and is typically used in only conjunction with royalty; (2) even then, the thing which is "succeeded to" is not the domain/realm, but rather the role/title/position (and most especially "the throne"). https://idioms.thefreedictionary.com/succeed to https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/succeed So this is appropriate: "The princess succeeded to the throne." But these are not: "The princess succeeded to Denmark." "The academic succeeded to Senior Lecturer." Correct formal English would be something like: "I am not the founder but I am next in line to succeed (to) the leadership of the company." "I am not the founder but I am next in line to succeed the founder [i.e. the current leader] of the company." "I am not the founder but I am next in line to succeed within the company." or indeed "I am not the founder but I am next in line to lead the company." "I am not the founder but I am next in line to take over [those duties within] the company." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 days (2019-07-24 01:30:52 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- By the way, the "founder" is the person who established the company. It is not logically possible for anybody to 'take over' as the 'new' "founder" after the company has already been established. However, after founding the company, the founder was presumably the leader and/or owner of the company — probably both, at least initially. Sometimes a founder may sell the company while remaining the leader (CEO or whatever). Other times the founder may step aside from running the business, and appoint other people as CEO, CFO, etc., but still retain the ownership of the company — even just as a shareholder. More context would be needed to know which applies in the case of the current source text. |
