More efficient text generation

Yes, I am translating to a langauge, where you cannot simply have a template where denoninators for countries, languages, etc. slip in without having to adjust grammar according to gender and other properties of these denominators. E.g. Switzerland and Tukey have to have a female singular article, the UK has to have a neuter singular, the USA has to have a male plural article, the United Arab Emirates have to have a neuter plural article while France and India and many others must not have articles at all.

While maintaining changes to these repeated texts looks laborous, just making a start of them via copy&paste is not too bad, imho.
