multilingual, multi URL...Is it possible?

HI,
Question please.
We need to build /convert conventional many painfully built but tiny html sites to something like CMS Made Simple
....which was recommended by a friend.
Help us please...>>>Can we build:
1) a site on a URL that is selectable once inside by readers by language, hence multilingual. We have both Latin and other character sets and do everything in utf-8
2) a group of related sites each having its own URL and inside any site multilingual options as in 1) ???

We have a new product and over 150 addresses,that are related
What is the idea here?
a) same product, in different URL addresses by region and language
b) IDENTICAL pages, just language used is different (idioms, of course, are different)

Sites have only about 3-4 pages each, so in theory CMS is the way to go.
We are in php/Apache/linux, of course, and osCommerce for our secure shop.
These pages, discussed here, do not have to be secure.
Many thanks and HAVE A NICE DAY! :)

I don't quite understand the question but multilingual version is coming along (not sure when its released tho) and you can fake multilingual by building your hierarchy language dependant

en
-en subpage
-en pages
fi
-fi subage
-fi pages

and so on then you can get only the lang menu with {menu number_of_levels="1"} and only pages with menu calls like {menu start_level="2"}

hope this helps
