django inline within same model

I have following model defined,

class Language(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=50)

class Translation(models.Model):
    field_name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
    language = models.ForeignKey(Language)

now i want to achieve such an admin interface where i can enter multiple languges to translate a common field_name, that is ,i want to avoid entering field_name each time to translate it in different languages.

for an example if i want to translate banner(which is a field name) in multiple languages(which is foreign field) at a time,then i want to enter banner for a single time and then choose multiple languages from different rows and save.Can it be possible without changing my current model structure? According to current structure of my model, i have to enter field_name each time(though field name is same) to translate it in several languages.

You can change your foreign key field to many to many field as it defines your requirement in more appropriate manner.

class Translation(models.Model):
    field_name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
    language = models.ManyToManyField(Language)
