    Translations are not considered duplicate content by Google. No issues there.

    You can get content in a foreign language and translate it to English. Then post on your site. No duplicate content issues. Just issues with the law :).

    Translation might not considered as duplicate content. It still consider as original content due to the " words" used are totally different.

    It's not considered duplicate content. Are you getting google translation link referrals? It could just be your visitors and not webmasters translating the content.

    Translating a content into a foreign language and posting it on any site is not considered a duplicate content. No issues there.
