Translating idiomatic expressions requires navigating linguistic,
cultural, and contextual barriers to maintain the intended meaning and impact.
This article identifies key challenges, such as cultural specificity, lack of direct
equivalents, and ambiguity, while offering solutions that emphasize creative

to the source language with clarity and relatability in the target language. By
leveraging contextual understanding, collaborative input, and translation tools,
idiomatic expressions can be effectively rendered to resonate with diverse
audiences.
