This should go without saying, but anyway, I'd feel most comfortable working with a single-localization main.xml that Porkupan has vetted or created. Localization is his baby, all I've done is merge his work into PRSCustomizer.
I know, but I was referring to the attitude. Porkupan is doing a great favor to all of us "Outsiders".

I'd like to suggest having two at one time. English and whatever else the user selects. That way, you can have the reader as it originally was and as you want it.

English is the default and built-in. Localization adds extra languages.

(1) Added Bulgarian and (2) made some rather important fixes for the Russian letter book sorting. I also (3) incorporated Damas's Lithuanian translation, which seemed a bit more thorough than the one from stasys.

As far as paring down the locales. It is really very simple as the locales are limited to:
main.xml
(1) The switch statement that switches between locales when pushing the number 1 in the About screen. This can be easily cut to only do English and one locale - this way there will be no annoying switching through many languages. If this code is pared down, the rest of the locale-specific code is harmless and can stay as is. In fact, in PRSCustomizer you could make checkbox-type selection of included locales, and enable the ones selected, while the rest of them just cannot be activated (although the locale-specific code is still present in the firmware).
(2) The if/else sequence, where I set some variables to be used as messages
(3) The 2 long JS functions per locale parsing Titles and Menu items.
(4) The getTitle, where we call getTitleXx
(5) The getValue, where we call getValueXx

in starageMain.xml there is one if/else sequence.

The JS code is rather primitive, should be very easy to understand.

Hebrew Support?

Can you add hebrew support? not just for the menu but most importantly - hebrew font support so the reader can read hebrew documents.

thanks!

I don't know for sure, but I think you should be able to read books in Romanian (in Unicode) if you install Cyrillic-Eastern European fonts. You can do it with the help of PRSCustomizer.

Hebrew, I believe, would be hard to implement, because to the best of my knowledge the Sony firmware does not support rendering fonts from right to left. I may be wrong about it, but a while ago we tried making LRF files in Hebrew and the characters were consistently rendered from left to right, which is incorrect.

The Reader supports Hebrew PDFs, so the language is not completely unusable in the device, but the native format (LRF) and the menu system (tinyhttp) probably cannot be easily fixed to support Hebrew.

Respected porkupan I should combine 3 languages Russian, Romanian and English, prompt as it to make.
I not so know English therefore difficult to understand as well as what to make.

In advance I thank

Just a heads up, I'll be translating the text listed in the first post of this thread into Swedish and Finnish over the weekend and post it here. What better way to use my spare time on an extended weekend cruise LOL
