htaccess renaming into friendly url

I have the following URLs:

http://example.com/de/cat1/?q=product1
http://example.com/en/cat2/?q=product3
...

I would like to rename them as follows. The first one should become: http://example.com/de/cat1/product1. The second one should become: http://example.com/en/cat2/product3

In other words I just want to remove "?q=".

My .htaccess does not provide the correct result. It looks currently as follows:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ ?q=$1 [NC,L]

If the users enters http://example.com/de/cat1/product1 it would turn it into: http://example.com/de/cat1/?q=/de/cat1/product1.

How can I fix that?

This is because you are capturing the entire uri in a single group and using it as destination querystring. Replace your RewriteRule with the following :

RewriteRule ^(.+)/(.+)$ /$1?q=$2 [L]
