We have global intranet - over 90K users, we have business units that also have their own hubs within the larger intranet-and one business unit that is using translations for some of their content as well - how do you handle search for content in other languages Another question, our homesite is a hubsite- since it is landing site for our global intranet- we have noticed that it does not act as a hubsite - in the sense that it is not limiting search to search across other hubsites that are associated to it but it is searching across all of 0365 (onedrive, teams, other sharepoint sites etc.)-this is causing user confusion so we were looking to use bookmarks to bubble up content from global intranet not sure if any advice?
When you set a site as a home site, you are automatically scoping search to be the entire tenant. You really want search to be at the org-wide level because that is currently the only place that features like Bookmarks, Acronyms, etc. are surfaced. You may want to add a search vertical at the org level so you can limit the scope of search to just that hub that represents your official intranet.

It is possible to configure the search scope for a site to either search globally, the content in the hub site and associated sites, or just the site itself. This is a post that gives some information on how to achieve this Configure modern search results to search all of your organization (rather than the current site). This is a post that explains how https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/sharepoint/configure-modern-search-results-to-search-all-of-your/m-p/447334- For language and translations support, many query terms will "automatically" work because languages, having different words for terms, will only return documents matching the query language. If you have a lot of query terms that are common across languages, you may use filters in your search verticals to hide the translated version. You could also use Query Variables in the vertical filter KQL to match a preferred language setting.
