"Translate" comes from the Latin word transfero (one form of which is translatus), meaning "to bring/bear across", or, literally "to transfer". Thus, etymologically, translating something is the act of bringing one thing (a phrase, word, or sentence) from one language into another.
For the curious/Latin-less: translatus is called the perfect passive participle; it has the meaning of "having been x-ed" (or in this case, "having been transferred"), and has many colloquial uses.
