Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Language translators are designed to translate second generation languages into machine language for the computer to understand. A syntax translator translates a higher-level programming language into a lower-level one, but it is not necessary for every programming language to go through a syntax translator. Assemblers are meant to translate assembly language into machine language. A code checker helps in identifying errors in the code, but it doesn't translate the code into machine language.
