To manage language in kohana you must define variable in languages file. First of all you will make a directory i18n under application directory. Now you will make a folder of all languages which will be run on your site such as for english you will create a folder en_US, for dainsh de_DE and so on.
Now you will make same name file in all folder. Here i make a file which name is translation.php.
Now edit translation.php or whatever you make and add some define value.
<?php
$lang = array
(
‘TEST’ => ‘First Test translation’,
‘LOVE’ => ‘I Love Kohana’
);
?>
Now you will call this variable in anywhere under your kohana folder by below format
kohana::lang(filename.definevariablename);
eg:
<?php
echo kohana::lang(‘translation.LOVE’); ?>
When you run this code you will get following output if your current language is english:
I Love Kohana
