What I do, is download the translations from the server and use them client side. I never hardcode translations in my assets and I wouldn't if I were you either.

Add a route to fetch your translations (static json) and parse the JSON client side. There are plenty of libraries that can help you from there.

Keep in mind that it's always possible to include translations in a build for something like require.js.
