Removing The Slide From Transform.Translate

I'm trying to have a simple cube move across the screen vertically and horizontally but at the same time diagonally. I got all of this down with a simple transform.Translate but my problem is that I have a "slide" when I go in one direction then switch to another for example: I got up and decide to go left, I slide up slightly before I fully stop.

 using UnityEngine;
 using System.Collections;
 
 public class PlayerControls : MonoBehaviour {
 
     public GameObject player;
     public float speed = 10.0f;
     public float transH;
     public float transV;
 
 
     void Update()
     {
         PlayerProperties playerProp = GetComponent<PlayerProperties>();
 
         if(transV >= 0.001f && transH == 0)
         {
             playerProp.playerState = PlayerProperties.PlayerState.Up;
             playerProp.changePlayer = true;
         }
 
         if (transV <= -0.001f && transH == 0)
         {
             playerProp.playerState = PlayerProperties.PlayerState.Down;
             playerProp.changePlayer = true;
 
         }
 
         if (transV == 0 && transH <= -0.001f)
         {
             playerProp.playerState = PlayerProperties.PlayerState.Left;
             playerProp.changePlayer = true;
         }
 
         if (transV == 0 && transH >= 0.001f)
         {
             playerProp.playerState = PlayerProperties.PlayerState.Right;
             playerProp.changePlayer = true;
         }
 
         if (transV >= 0.001f && transH >= 0.001f)
         {
             playerProp.playerState = PlayerProperties.PlayerState.UpRight;
         }
     }
 
     void FixedUpdate()
     {
         transV = Input.GetAxis("Vertical") * speed * Time.deltaTime;
         transH = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal") * speed * Time.deltaTime;
 
         transform.Translate(transH, transV, 0);
     }
 
 
 }
