Hello,

There is also a nice macro by @sycom for translation.

https://github.com/sycom/TiddlyWiki-Plugins/blob/master/ext/modules/macros/i18n/i18n.tid

I used it here 
https://github.com/iilyak/tiddlywiki-splitweb/blob/master/plugins/iilyak/splitweb/i18n/readme.tid#L7

I think you can also use multids to put multiple tiddlers into single file if 
you choose to.

The benefit of this approach is you can support multiple languages in a single 
wiki and toggle between. See demo of a language toggle
