Answer
By converting low-level exceptions to higher-level ones.
Exception translation involves catching a low-level exception and throwing a more meaningful one. This can improve reliability by providing more context to the caller, making it easier to handle. For example, catching a SQLException and throwing a DataAccessException can abstract database-specific details from the rest of the application.
