Languages
Each language has a 2-letter prefix. e.g. "en" for English and "fr" for French.
A value can be defined in another language (which becomes the canonical language), e.g. fr:soupes-a-l-oignon could be the canonical value for "Onion Soups" if we don't have an English translation yet.
New values (e.g. categories that do not exist yet) should have an English canonical value.
When a field value needs to be translated to a target language, if the translation does not exist yet, English is shown (or the canonical language if the English translation does not exist either).
