The CC-BY-ND licenses prohibit, amongst other things, translation.
The CC-BY-NC licenses discourage translation, because of the economics
involved in translating material.
The other issue is when is a change of the document, a translation:
* Is rewriting a document in English(US) that was originally in
English(South Africa) a translation?
* Is rewriting a document in Portuguese(Brazil) that was originally in
Portuguese (Portugal) a translation?
* Is converting a document that is in Chinese (Traditional) to Pinyin
a translation?

What happens when the selected word corpus doesn't contain the words
to be translated?
