This looks like a matrix, no?

If MSG_NAME is a vector : "v1" & "v2"

and WORD_NAME a vector of vector:
   "n1.1" & "n1.2"
   "n2.1" & "n2.2"

Then:

   @@TABLE@@
   <message name="@_MSG_NAME_@">....
      @@TABLE@@
       <word name="@_WORD_NAME_@">....
      @@END_TABLE@@
   @@END_TABLE@@

will be transformed as:

   <message name="v1">....
       <word name="n1.1">....
       <word name="n1.2">....
   <message name="v2">....
       <word name="n2.1">....
       <word name="n2.2">....

Isn't this what you want?

Not sure I understand this.

Right. But what you have here is a basic structure for the templates
engine :)
