XML Parser: specifying translation element

Question

Hello, 
 I'm having a bit of a struggle getting my head round the XPath-but-not-quite-XPath used when configuring a custom XML parser. Specifically, I am trying to use the translation element to have Passolo read/write the translation from a different element to the source. 
 
 The screenshot below should hopefully illustrate my problem. From what I've read in the help files, the settings I am using should work. However, they don't so clearly I'm doing something wrong. Can anyone help? 
 
 Thanks, 
 
 Russell

A few days ago I published an answer to another XML problem using a knowledge base article that I once created back in 2009 on the XML file parser. It contains some tips and I enhanced the article with more modern tips. So please first of all look into https://community.sdl.com/product-groups/translationproductivity/sdl_passolo/f/142/t/16929 
 Unfortunately the literal language names that are used in your file are not supported by Passolo. Instead of the literal language names it must be one of these encodings: 
 
 Then it would work but your rule must contain 2 different language codes. 
 
 The data element then just needs source as the Data Element and translation as the Translation Element . 
 
 So the problem that will remain is the unsupported language name.
