Hey guys, the problem is and the issue is.
They share the same translation sometimes, right?
What's the difference? 
-Ah, good question. See, issues and problems can both be big or somall, but problems feel more serious. Issues require discussion and problems require sloving.
Also, if you use the word problem, it does have a more negative feeling. So you can say the same kind of feeling but if you don't want to say anything negative you can use the word issue.
