There's no limit to the number of languages a single participant can
submit! You are correct about the premise. The only problem is that
you will most likely (consciously or unconsciously) bring ideas and
notions from the previous text you translated. This should in no way
be seen as an attempt at precluding people from submitting several
languages. Just be aware of the 'dangers'.
