It's not, and nobody said it is, dependent on the language
whether the Goa'uld are gods or not! It depends on the perspective!
If you listen to the Goa'uld servants speaking english, they might still
utter "The Goa'uld are gods". If you listen to a member of SG-1, they
might utter "The Goa'uld are no gods". Neither one is said to be wrong
from a pure 'language perspective'.
