For the English version:
http://mydomain.com - home page
http://mydomain.com/contact - contact
For the German version:
http://mydomain.com/gr - home page
http://mydomain.com/gr/Kontakt-gr - contact

How to build an additional language version of a website as quick as possible?
When you create an additional language version of a website, keep in mind that changes made within it will not affect other versions. The best practice here is to primarily focus on the website style and content of a one language version. And only after it's done you may copy content and add language versions. Then the last thing to do would be just the content translation . You won't have to spend hours on editing each version style.
