Magento multi Language store
One client asked to internationalize a magento 2.2.3 store adding other two languages (English and Spanish).
The current website is on production since April with only the default language and store view (Italian).
I'm studying how to internationalize a magento store since it is the first time, but I have some doubts.
I found some articles on the web and it is clear that I need to create the store views, download the language packages and then translate the contents.

- How to handle the current store view ?
- It is necessary to add the it code to the italian view?
- If yes, How to handle the old urls (without the store code).

You need to create:
app/i18n/<yourCustomName>/es_ES
app/i18n/<yourCustomName>/en_EN
Once created add a registration.php, language.xml, and a es_ES.csv or en_EN.csv in each folder.
Inside each language.xml:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<language xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:App/Language/package.xsd">
<code>es_ES</code>
<vendor><vendor></vendor>
<package>es_es</package>
<sort_order>10</sort_order>
<use vendor="<vendor>" package="es_es" />
</language>
Once you have these done and the .csv have data inside (make sure you try and find them online).
Then you go and create storeviews:
You should have Default WebSite and Default Store and Default StoreView (Or the Italian ones). So when creating 2 new storeviews, they should be childs of the default Store.
Hopefully I will have answered the questions.

Ok if i understood well i have to create two language packages or install theme from a vendor (like mageplaza). Then i need to create two store views with the language code. My answer is: i have to create a language code for the urls also for the italian view( the default one): Example: spanish: website.com/es english: website.com/en italian : website.com or website.com/it? If the second case i the right how can i redirect the old to the new one? magento does it or i need to write them in .htacces?

Well, the way I explained it so you have the same web, but the user would have at the top left or top right a comboBox where they can choose with which language do they want to see the web. You need to add them to your code, but not to vendor. If you want to create different websites, it's a different story.
