Literal translation:

A literal translation, or metaphrase, is a word-for-word translation where the target language copies the source exactly.

Idiomatic translation:

idiomatic translation refers to achieving a target text that sounds natural in the target language, while idiomatic expressions are idioms or fixed expressions in a given language.

Free translation:

A free translation is: one which aims to convey all of the meaning, but is not constrained by the form of the original at all. A couple of examples from my own experience: In Chinese dialogue, the word "said" is used almost exclusively. It is sometimes modified to convey the tone

Semantic translation:

semantic translation is the conversion of XML data from one data model to a second data model using formal ontologies for each system such as the Web Ontology Language (OWL).
