If I need a varchar(30) field, for example, that needs to contain several different foreign character sets, is there one particular language type that I can use in MySQL? For example, I have a field contains names in Chinese, Russian, English, Spanish and Portuguese, and possibly more in the future. How do I enable this for a varchar() field?
