Can I use this
Is it plausible to write this? You translated me. (translate 3 : enrapture)
A learner's dictionary does not include the word sense, But a college level dictionary (Merriam-Webster) says it.

anonymous You translated me. If you said this to me, I would never understand that you meant it in the sense shown as definition 3. I don't think I've ever heard anyone use 'translate' in that sense.
