翻译 (fānyì) means “to translate” or “translation,” and also “translator” or “interpreter.” 翻 means to turn over, and 译 means to translate.

To translate into a language, use 把……翻译成……: 把这句话翻译成英文 (bǎ zhè jù huà fānyì chéng Yīngwén), translate this sentence into English.

她是一名翻译。 — Tā shì yì míng fānyì. — She is a translator.
