So in the ideal scenario when a user clicks on the desired language "this code" is run and WordPress uses the corresponding .mo file for the translation.

The urls look like this example.com/fliegen > shows archive.php for category fliegen example.com/en/aviation > shows archive.php for category aviation (the translated fliegen) This could be achieved by changing the category-base to .
