Setting CurrentUICulture is enough.

You gotta add German resources like:

        -res:de-DE/myapp.de-DE.resources,myApp.de-DE.resources
        
Then:

ResourceManager rm = new ResourceManager ("myApp",
Assembly.GetExecutingAssebly ());

Console.WriteLine (rm.GetString ("id_of_the_string"));


The id_of_the_string shoule be that way if you use MS resource format,
but you can use .po and other formats that allow using spaces
(monoresgen.exe).
