-- load a dict table to the lang dict (merge into the internal dict)
-- dict: table with sub-tables and strings
tr:load(dict)

-- load a dict table to the lang dict for a specific locale
-- equivalent to tr:load({[locale] = dict})
-- dict: table with sub-tables and strings
-- locale: prefix
tr:loadLocale(locale, dict)

-- lang access property
tr.lang

-- access translation
-- args: table used to replace {keys} with values in the translation string (can be nil)
tr.lang.foo.bar(args)

tr:load({
  foo = {

-- ex: cache foo access for better performances
local foo = tr.lang.foo

print(foo.bar({"1st", "2nd", test = "TEST"})) -- "first 1st second 2nd test TEST"
print(foo.foo()) -- "foo"
