Dynamic model binding in ASP.NET MVC Razor for multilanguage

I want to use multilanguage structure in my ASP.NET MVC project. I have only two languages. So I keep two string fields in my DB for two languages (Eg: Header_EN and Header_TR).

I get my current language value from my .resx file dynamically (Eg: EN or TR). But I have to use a dynamic model in my view. Normally I'm using this for single language:

    @model MyProject.Models.tTextTable

    <div class="TextDetailContainer">
        @Html.Raw(Model.MyTextDetail_EN)
    </div>

And I want to use a dynamic model value for multilanguage something like that:

    @model MyProject.Models.tTextTable

    <div class="TextDetailContainer">
        @Html.Raw(Model.("MyTextDetail_" + Resources.Language.CurrentLanguage))
    </div>

Is there a possible way to do this with this logic or is there another way to create dynamic model in Razor?

If your model is dynamic then you can cast it to IDictionary<string, object> and get the value from it:

var dictionary = (IDictionary<string, object>)model;
var text = dictionary ["MyTextDetail_" + Resources.Language.CurrentLanguage] as string;

Although you should probably have one property MyTextDetail and set it in controller to appropriate localized value.
