All of the programming languages that I have ever learned run either on A: An interpreter (like Python) or B: A compiler (like C). Just recently however, I came across an article that said Javascript was run using a "translator". I have never seen this term used before; is there such a thing as a "translator" or did the writer of the article simply not know that the proper term is "interpreter"?

UPDATE: I am not sure why this question was closed, as I am already aware of the differences between an interpreter and a compiler. My question is whether or not there is such a thing as a "translator" for Javascript.

Here is the original webpage: https://www.javatpoint.com/javascript-tutorial

The confusing part for me is the third paragraph: "Javascript is not a compiled language, but it is a translated language."
