One thing to keep in mind is that even if the catalog is in just one
language, say English or French, any tables derived from bibliographic
data may have to deal with a lot more than just the language of the
catalog - many libraries collect in more than one language. This may
simply mean that the value of the system preference may end up being
the same regardless of the translation, at least for Indo-European and
Semitic languages.
Since not all articles will necessarily have a space after them, e.g.,
L' in some languages, the syspref should reflect that.
LC maintains a list of articles at
http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bdapp-e.html.
