Answer 1

You can simply make a big object tree:

var languages = {
   english:{
      Save:"Save"
   },
   german:{
      Save:"Speichern"
   }
};

In your app:

var l = languages.german;
alert(l.Save); //Alerts "Speicher"

The benefit of this system is that you can make sub objects to group some values together.
