I was just giving the PHP example. in PHP you can use numbers or words at your wish. In my (litle) experience, both have their own places when coding. But as you said, we can use expressions, even if that involve an extra step. As I found out, long time ago, for the same problem, diferent solutions ...

but in fact it is the way to use numbers instead of words that makes codes flexible...

It is probably a better solution than have it in an array like lang(0) = "quit" and lang(300) = "terminar" and 3XX being the Portuguese, 200 the Geramany and so on. And that would be a huge hard work too. If you start building you language "include" when you start programming, it is not so bad ...

Language files

Structure ...
