Wikipedia
word-for-word translation
Literal translation, direct translation or word-for-word translation, is a translation of a text done by translating each word separately, without looking at how the words are used together in a phrase or sentence.In translation theory, another term for "literal translation" is metaphrase (as opposed to paraphrase for an analogous translation). Literal translation leads to mistranslation of idioms, which is a serious problem for machine translation.
