translate

If you translate something from one language to another, you change the words and sentences into the other language.

Example: It's not enough to translate word for word.

If x translates into y, x causes or leads to y.

Example: For a golfer, if you're not calm, that can translate into a bad shot.

If something translates, it applies or can be used in a new way or situation.

Example: His experience as a police officer doesn't translate well to running a company.
