Who says you can't ? You can pass *any* string to NSLocalizedString (), whether it's from your data dictionary or elsewhere.

 But that's not really an optimal solution. What kind of data is this?

In many cases it makes sense to just have a different version of the file containing this data for each localisation. Unless there is a lot of non-localised data in the file that would be duplicated. Another alternative is to make your file format itself localisable, or to have placeholders and replace these with localised data if it's e.g. a template document.

 I'm just guessing here, you're not telling us enough to go by.

The data are food, with names to localize, and recipes, that also have preparation instructions that need to be translated.
I was already thinking about different versions of files containing data, but I wondered if there is a better method.
Thank you for your advice.
