Top of my head, to get an idea of what it would take look around in er.chronic.repeaters, Numerizer, StringUtils. You might try to move the patterns out to a properties or plist mapping them to their canonical meaning by language code, and modify Options to pass in a language code. Adding tests would be critical. :)  

Think of Chronic as a lot of special cases. Are there idioms in one language that don't make sense for another? Probably.
