This example uses the Identifier method when querying the translation table on a multilingual site, falling back the name property if a matching key in the translation table does not exist:
<ul>
{{ range .Site.Menus.main }}
<li><a href="{{ .URL }}">{{ or (T .Identifier) .Name }}</a></li>
{{ end }}
</ul>
