Well, yeah - that's one reason (the mess in phpMyAdmin :cheese: ) - my main problem is, that I have no idea how big the whole thing might become. If you consider only 5 languages (which means 15 join-tables, right?) with 500.000 entries each, that's already quite a package. That's the reason why I'm trying to find a "future"-proof way to handle this.

[quote author="walesmd" date="1192137941"]It would be a lot faster to perform a join across multiple tables,[...][/quote]
In this case you refer to the technique I was asking about? one table "in between" two language tables?

Man, I gotta apologize for my language again—I don't consider myself to be developer and I've learned a little about relational databases at the university, but basically everything I'm doing here is a bit foggy :red: .

Anyone experience with dictionaries online itself?

Thanks a lot already,
