I think if you used ChatGPT-4 to write in your native language and ask it to translate it to English you might get good results. There are some minor tweaks I like to use when translating with ChatGPT:
From another language: “Translate this to English. Provide any clues you can get from idiosyncrasies in spelling, grammar, or word choice which might indicate which specific region or sub-culture the writer might be from and use this to provide notes on deeper or alternate meanings specific to that region or sub-culture. Note any potential ambiguities or uncertainties in translation and provide multiple options where appropriate. Use context clues to explain the tone, tenor, and emotion of the writing/writer, and what that commonly means in this culture vs. American culture.”
To another language: “Translate this to $LANGUAGE. Please make it sound natural to a native speaker, use local idioms or phrases wherever possible. Rather than strictly transliterating it, focus on conveying the specific tone of the original, but note where there may be a conflict between cultures and inform me if there’s a risk of being misinterpreted.”
