Hi,
I was curious if someone knows a simple way to have certain pages on my web site display in a language other than English?

Yes: a very simple way: write them in that other language. You may need to translate the template too, depending how much translatable text you've put in it.
That is probably not the answer you were looking for. A bit more complex solution would be to have a menu hierachy starting with the language, like home-en and home-fr, and hide the first level of the menu (see the ellnav split menu how to do that. Then you can hardcode the links to the other language homepages in the template, or maybe use some custome tags to determin the current language and base the output on that (eg. so that the link for the current language will not be displayed).
I believe Patricia might have some trick with replicating the structure to another language, that might be usefull too. Real multi language features are on the roadmap too, IIRC.
