Translation to the most common languages.

There are sometimes confusions about the fish names when you speak different languages. So to make sure we talk about the same thing, here is a list with the most common fish names, in the most common languages that visitors that we know of speak. Hopefully you can find your own language below, but if you don't, please let us know! With a little help we will gladly add another language to the list.
