The word "well" is an adverb, and "good" is an adjective, so you should say

"You did well with the translation", or "You did a good job with the translation."

However, sometimes the verb "do" is used idiomatically like a linking verb, as are verbs like "feel" and "look." In these cases, decide if the modifier applies to the subject (and use good) or to the action (and use well). The use of "well" as an adjective means in good health.

Why is it incorrect to answer I am good to the question how are you?

The word "good" is an adjective, so it cannot be used to describe a state of being as indicated by a verb such as "am." Instead, the adverb "well" should be used.


Is it correct to write in an email Hope your good?

As a final line before the signature, the sentiment is acceptable; however since it's a contraction of "you are" it should be *you're, and since "good" describes a verb (are/to be), it should be "well" instead. "Hope you're well, -Soand So"

Why do you say well instead of good?

Using "well" instead of "good" is more appropriate in certain contexts because "well" is an adverb that describes how something is done (e.g., "She speaks English well"), while "good" is an adjective that describes the quality of something (e.g., "She is a good person"). So, if you are describing an action or behavior, "well" is the correct choice.
