Using jquery-localize for bilingual Shopify store

I'm trying to use jquery-localize to make a bilingual (pt-en) Shopify store. Jquery-localize is working (translating the strings in the default language - pt - to the client browser language - mine is en). I need:

  1. the shop in the default language (pt) for portuguese and brazilian customers;
  2. the shop in english for international customers (en, es, fr, de, ja, etc.)
  3. a drop-down list for the customer to choose in which language he wants to view the store (ex. I'm portuguese but with a english browser, but I want to see the pt version of the store).

Is this possible with jquery-localize? How do I get this to work?

Thank you,

Ana Rita

So a better solution for my needs was not jquery-localize but i18next:

There's another answer to this - a script I wrote for a Shopify client of mine to enable English and Greek bilingual features. It's SEO friendly, works on any Shopify theme and any two languages.
