YES IT IS NOT TRANSLATORY MOTION

because translatory motion are divided into two - curvilinear motion and rectilinear motion                            rectilinear motion moves in a straight line so it is not comes in rectilinear and curvilinear motion moves as curved path so it is also not curvilinear .
