Answer 1

// I'm using this for years and it works very good !! it's easy and logic
$translate = array();

while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
  {
      $cullomnkey = $row['translshort']; // is what you want the key to be 
      $translate[$cullomnkey] = $row[$language]; // this is the key and the value in the array 
  }
