Foreign language
I have noticed three common errors of by people learning foreign languages people:
First one is a translating from their native languages. (I do not understand what you mean by this, you have to translate from your own langauge, you can't translate from a language you do not know. How is it a problem?)
Second is a translating from their native languages literally and the most general problem is speaking and writing by using constructions from their native languages, their own created constructions but not by phrases, constructions and collocations from learning the language they are learning.

What is your intended distinction between the first one and the second one? Metaphors are a big problem when translating, because they rarely have exact equivalents in the target language.

Hello Sana,
You are absolutely correct. Those are the most common problems people have if they learn a language by themselves and don't go to a language school. They are missing the very basics of a language. The construction of sentences is different from one language to another.
That is also why Internet Translators only work do a certain degree.
