 * This isn’t a problem, as much as a unique situation. I’m a novice at WordPress,
   and I’d be grateful for any help.
 * I run a website that provides translations of four varieties: Wordlists, names,
   phrasebooks, and poetry. These translations are into four different languages,
   and a total of 6 dialects between two of the languages. Not only that, but the
   wordlists, phrasebooks, and namelists have categories of their own. If I were
   to put it all together, this is the levels of categories that I need to effectively
   share these translations. I need to be able to link to every level of these categories
   without getting things from other categories, (like looking for Gondorian Sindarin
   greetings, but getting all of the greetings in all of the languages, not just
   the Gondorian Sindarin ones) and I haven’t found a way to do that yet.
 * poetry
    –Language —-dialect wordlists –Language —-dialect ——Wordlist type phrasebooks–
   Language —-dialect ——Chapter namelists –Language —-dialect ——name-ee ——–theme———-
   word-roots ————suffixes ————–name-types
 * The way that I thought I’d do it was to have tags on each entry. Many of these
   categories are redundant – for every single translation type, there is a “Sindarin”
   category. Every Sindarin category has the same available dialects. Each phrasebook
   in each language has the same chapters. But, I can’t link to more than one tag
   at a time, I discovered to my frustration.
 * Say that I want to link to a set of translations that fit into the following 
   tags/categories:
    Phrasebook, Sindarin language, Gondorian dialect, Greetings
   How could I link to them? Is there a way to do this? Please help!

 * Also, is there a way for the categories and tags to be listed in the entry?

 * This would work with categories only (available in pro) because categories are
   hierarchical. Tags are not.
