We usually don't translate snippets because they usually don't contain
any text. Are you proposing to create new documentation content?

If you locate in the source code the texinfo files you want to
translate, it is really easy to do. Just translate everything outside
@{} commands. Then send me a copy of these files. You don't need to
install anything and compiling is not necessary. I said this for
active translators who maintain whole localized versions of the
complete manuals.

I have not searched the docs but please do it and show me what do you
want to adapt. Texinfo is a very simple markup language for
documents. I will help you on anything you need.
