# Multiple-Language: Configuration options?

 * I am planning a dual-language (EN and a second language) website. I will have
   to prepare two versions of the same content for each post I write, since translating
   engines are nowhere near capable of the task. I have setup categories as my menu
   items and my permalinks are hence:
    `mydomain/%category%/%post-name%.`
 * The best way to solve the dual-language setup AFAIK, is to have the two-letter
   language code placed somewhere into permalinks – for English, as an example:
   `
   mydomain/%category%/EN/%post-name%` Finally, placing an http link in each post
   for the translated version is a trivial issue.
 * I’d like to hear from those who have already done something similar, or those
   experienced in (for lack of a better term) “mirrored content”. What options are
   there and what do you suggest?
 * P.S. I’m running a multisite setup btw, but using a sub-domain for each language
   would be detrimental to traffic stats and the resulting ad-revenue, IMHO.

 * Well a bit stupid of me, but I found this WP codex after my posting:
    [https://codex.wordpress.org/Multilingual_WordPress](https://codex.wordpress.org/Multilingual_WordPress)
   While the multisite options look very interesting, I think maybe multisite is
   not the right solution for this issue, when I consider the amount of traffic 
   expected for the site. It looks like multisite plugins may be ideal on a news-
   site for example?
