How about thinking in the other direction.... is it possible for
PostgreSQL
to be able to recognised localised versions of SQL queries?
i.e. For a Turkish locale it associates "ýnsert" INSERT and "unýon"
with UNION.

Perhaps including this in the compilation stage (checking which locates
are installed on a system, or maybe which locales are specified
somewhere)?

Not sure what this would do to performance though, as having to do extra
SQL identifier matching might be a bit slow.

This would have the advantage of the present SQL queries out there
working.
