Hey!
This is probably a common question here but I couldn't find info.

Can google penalize me if I copy a text from other language, then translating it to my local language?

Of course fixing the text in order it to sound good.

Thanks
 
No, if you can pass copyscape thats all that matters. Many people use this method.
 
I had pages ranking decent even though they were 100% duplicate, but, for your safety, you should make sure it's "unique" in the respective language.
 
Ok, that what I was thinking about, thanks!
Will use Copyscape then :)
 
People do this stuff all the time. When you change the language as others have stated just make sure you pass the duplicate content test and if so, you’re good to go.

No, Google won't.

Unless there's the original owner files complaints against you. This happens if both articles are in English and one appears to be obviously copied.


Moreover, am not sure Google actively looks for copied content to penalize. An authority website will outrank you with your very own content/article.
 
Okay, so what is 20-30% of plagiarism acceptable for google?
Using your own experience
 
as long your content is unique then And author of content didn’t make any claim then no problem go ahead with the content.
 
That trick had been shared here before. Use it while it lasts. The search algorithms are getting smarter every day; soon they will be able to trace the original post. I have seen cases where content passes Copyscape, but google doesn't index it because it assumes there is better content out there.
