Thank you for your quick reply Odin. You  are helping me a lot.

That is exactly what I would like to do: use the core concept with language 
tiddlers with the translation of tiddlers of the plugin. What I havent't 
figured out is the correct title (with the path) of such a tiddler. How 
exactly would I use set field widgets to change it to my desired language?
