b.Only if translated first
c.Only for acknowledgments
d.Yes, provided the notary can directly communicate with the signer and complete an English-language certificate

A notary may notarize a foreign-language document because the notary certifies the signature and identity, not the contents. However, the notary must be able to communicate directly with the signer and should attach a notarial certificate in a language the notary understands.
