Hi Joe;
Thanks for your response.

What I am not sure about, is whether or not you can specify a different language in the middle of a form label.
Also coding a form in this way would make the form very verbose and provide a unsatisfactory user experience for both linguistic populations.

These forms are tipically distributed to various people in the organization for approval. Needless to say some parts of the form will become read only after the user has submitted the form for approval at the next level.
In these cases being able to specify the other language could get complicated. Also when signing such a form, is it reasonable to expect someone to sign the form if they don't understand what they are signing?

I don't know that there is a solution that would work well for everybody.
I just thought I would check here in case I had missed something.
