I had suggested something similar last year, say for Italian. The thinking was that a word-for-word substitution is not robust enough. Language syntax, (native verb placement in a sentence, for example) would break such a system right away. The thread is on the use-list somewhere.

If you assign a word in, say, Mandarin for every LiveCode-specific word
or
phrase (keyword, command, message, etc.), it will be a cheap (if
stilted)
solution to the problem. The added advantage is translation of an
entire
application script to any language at the click of a button and back.
There
are clear limitations to this approach, of course, but you can't beat
the
cost-benefit.

Regards,
Sri
