I actual work in the translation feel and, general rule of thumb for translations* [at least any one whose good at the job] is to try to get as close they can to both the meaning of the word and cultural implications/unsaid meanings [ex. "issues" in English has a negative connotation to it that may very well not exist if you focus on just the meaning of the word without thinking about connotations.]

It's part of why most translators [again, who are any good at their job] really need a good handle of the languages their dealing with.

*This isn't the same as interpreting where you're basically trying to convey the meaning of what's being said in way that's quick and gets the important information [spoken and implied via tone, etc] across without being quite as accurate as translation.
