6. ???
7. PROFIT.

##Translating individual files Each file is a JSON file that contains trigger phrases used by API.ai. For example, the file /entities/Controls_entries_fr.json

It has multiple arrays like so:

"value": "Resume",
"synonyms": [
"Resume",
"Start",
"Continue",
"Resume Playback",
"Unpause"

The "value" portion should not change.

But they synonyms - those need to be translated to french.

So, a translated array may look like this when done:

"value": "Resume",
"synonyms": [
"CV",
"Début",
"Continuer",
"Reprendre la lecture",
"Unpause",
"French-specific phrase meaning 'unpause'"...

Once all arrays are translated, save and commit.
