I discussed this with raster already, basically it is about marking the strings to be translated and then shipping the translations. We could simply add a markup or just add another entry, we could use gettext and ship it as external .mo or ship it inside edje. Problem with custom solution is how to do plural forms and other stuff gettext already does. Problem with using gettext is relying on external .mo files. The best thing is to add some kind of loading .mo from memory so these would be shipped inside eet just like we do for images and fonts.
