The data is dynamic, it is stored in the DB.

Loosely speaking, I have data like

in English:
id: 1
desc: male
id: 2
desc: female

in German
id: 1
desc: männlich
id: 2
desc: weiblich

When somebody choose a gender (or a country or some other data) the ID
will be stored as a foreign key.

Now...I could, of course, store the English string in the DB and pull
them via __() when German or some other language is required. However,
in that case, I'd have to recreate a data array as one string at a
time is returned by __(). Doesn't seem like an elegant solution to me.

I'm just curious if this problem is supposed to be solved via the i18n
table as proposed in Cake 1.2. At this point, I just don't know how to
use the proposed table structure as found in app/config/sql/i18n.sql.

In other posts, I have read that other tables in the form model_i18n
need to be generated. I just have not found a step by step example of
how to use i18n.

Does anybody know?

Thx again.
