    As long as the subdomain is written in abcd up to z characters, then there's no problem with that.

    Do you mean the subdomains in language, or the content?
    Either way, you should be fine. Just use a seperate sitemap for each one :p

    I would like to make 4 subdomains,
    on sub1.domain.com and sub2.domain.com will be english content
    and on sub3.domain.com and sub4.domain.com will be german content
    and on sub5.domain.com and sub5.domain.com will be french content.

    Is it ok?

    You can have many different languages and it is no problem. I already asked Google before. It is no problem with that.
