you could either link the entire feed to a translated feed, or link just the
entry to a translated entry document. I'd do the former generally.

<feed>
   <link rel="alternate" type="application/atom+xml"
    hreflang="fr" href="http://example.org/fr/feed.xml"/>
   <entry>
       <link rel="alternate" type="application/atom+xml"
        hreflang="fr" href="http://example.org/fr/entry.xml"/>
   </entry>
