if (file_exists(PUN_ROOT.'extensions/<extension>/lang_'.$pun_user['language'].'.php'))
    require PUN_ROOT.'extensions/<extension>/lang_'.$pun_user['language'].'.php';
else
    require PUN_ROOT.'extensions/<extension>/lang_English.php';

also in the install block i add this

if (!file_exists(PUN_ROOT.'extensions/<extension>/lang_'.$pun_user['language'].'.php'))
    $notices[] = 'This Extension does not support your current language and will use the english one.';

replacing <extension> with your extension name of corse
With this scheme you don't have multiple folders with one file in them

if (!isset($lang_topic['Unpublish']))
        $lang_topic['Unpublish'] = 'Unpublish';

Doing it that way makes it possible to put translations in extensions. If someone makes a system for automatically keeping extensions updated then it won't be very hard to "push" translations of extensions.

if ( file_exists ( 'extensions/gallery/lang/'.$pun_user['language'].'/gallery.php' ) ) {
  require PUN_ROOT.'extensions/gallery/lang/'.$pun_user['language'].'/gallery.php';
} else {
  require PUN_ROOT.'extensions/gallery/lang/English/gallery.php';
}

Otherwise the extension will not work hmm

Unfortunately, I found those extensions don't include multilingual sentences except English ones. Will this problem be solved in the future?
