Sometimes, we want to change a few language strings from the original Tiki. It could be because of regional or community expressions.
Currently, we need to change language.php and/or the template (tpl) files.
It would be better to have a custom language file which would override default text. (Like we do for tpl files). Therefore upgrades would be smoother.
Even better if we could edit this language file via the GUI.
Introduced in Tiki 1.9.8
> 2- How do I use it? Do I just include the strings in a file like this?

- exactly. the content of this file has to look like:
<?php $lang['string in english to translate'] = "string translated in language"; ?>
(with one line per translation)
those translations can be new strings that you introduced in
templates, or existing ones, in which case the custom.php declaration
will override the default language.php one.

I prefer to do like this
At the end on lang/xx/language.php
require_once('lang/xx/language_mine.php');
And create a lang/xx/language_mine.php with
<?php $lang_mine= array( "Mine" => "mine version", ); $lang = array_merge($lang, $lang_mine); ?>
This is all nicely handled in recent versions of Tiki. See i18n.tiki.org
