Hi,
I have a text I would like to keep in a single org file in both an
English and a German version.
I could just have first one version and the other and export via tags.
However, ideally I would like to keep both versions of a given paragraph
close together to allow easier translation and editing. It would
potential be nice to be able to fold up one language to just view the
other.
Does anyone have a good workflow for this use-case?
Cheers,
Loris

I had the same question about a year ago.
Here is what I came up with.
It works on section (subsection) level, not on paragraph level.
I can either export one language or both for comparison.
I’ve used yasnippets to insert the @@latex environments.
You can select which language to export by removing the space in the +SELECT_TAGS: line.

* Text deutsch :german:
@@latex:\begin{otherlanguage}{german}@@
Hier ist ein Text.
@@latex:\end{otherlanguage}@@
* Text englisch :english:
@@latex:\begin{otherlanguage}{english}@@
Here is some text.
@@latex:\end{otherlanguage}@@
This was used for one smallish project.
Most of my documents are german only.
Greeting Axel
