"april" => "abril",
"may" => "mayo",
"june" => "junio",

"august" => "agosto",
"september" => "septiembre",
"october" => "octubre",
"november" => "noviembre",

Handling Variables in PHP Arrays
Our PHP parser is only responsible for detecting and extracting strings from a PHP Array. If variables are included, then they must be handled in the manner explained by the following example:
FOOTER_COPY1" => "© .date("Y") MY CORPORATION LTD. All Rights Reserved.
The function date needs to be replaced in the PHP file with variables as seen below:
<?php
$thisyear = date("Y");
return array(
"FOOTER_COPY1" => "© {$thisyear} MY CORPORATION LTD. All rights reserved."
PHP Alternative Array
File Extension(s) | .php |
i18n type(s) | PHP_ALT_ARRAY |
Sample data
<?php
$LANG['_MONDAY'] = "Monday";
$LANG["_TUESDAY"] = 'Tuesday';
/**This is a multiline
* comment***/
$LANG["_WEDNESDAY"] = '';
$LANG["_Thursday"] = "Thursday";
?>
PHP DEFINE statements
File Extension(s) | .php |
i18n type(s) | PHP_DEFINE |

DEFINE("january", "enero");
DEFINE("february", "febrero");
DEFINE("march", "marzo");
DEFINE("april", "abril");
DEFINE("may", "mayo");
DEFINE("june", "junio");
