Well it does depend. Are you looking to take raw text from any source and
translate that or are you looking to translate text written in a formal
grammer and proscribed vocabulary?

The former is hard and falls into the "big data" category, the latter is
much easier.

In either case reading up on "Natural Language Processing" would be a place
to start for either.
