As far as I can tell this is not possible (unfortunately)...I could make it work when entering an identifier string like

namespace.lexiconkey into the Caption and Description field when modifing the classfile at manager/controllers/default/resource/resource.class.php around line 380...

        if ($namespace = stristr($tv->get('caption'), '.', true)) {

            $this->modx->lexicon->load($namespace . ':default');
            if ($this->modx->lexicon(ltrim(stristr($tv->get('caption'), '.'), '.'))) {
                $tv->set('caption', $this->modx->lexicon(ltrim(stristr($tv->get('caption'), '.'), '.')));
            }
            if ($this->modx->lexicon(ltrim(stristr($tv->get('description'), '.'), '.'))) {
                $tv->set('description', $this->modx->lexicon(ltrim(stristr($tv->get('description'), '.'), '.')));
            }
        }
        // insert the above code before this line that already exists...
        $tvOutput = $this->fetchTemplate('resource/sections/tvs.tpl');

this is not an option for you though, as you cannot rely on modified core files...sorry...maybe somebody else knows how this currently would already work, but as of here: https://forums.modx.com/thread/31482/multi-language-tv not even Mark knew if this works (I tried, it didn't, so I tried to figure out if this was even possible...will make a PR (EDIT: https://github.com/modxcms/revolution/pull/11394) of this on github, but don't expect it to be in the core soon as this probably much more work...

It was not an easy thing..

Code you've written will be helpful.
It's a wonderful!!(>_<)

I have slightly modified. (?)
line 380 => 337
line 289 : foreach ($tvs as $tv) { ... } <= in

if ($namespace = stristr($tv->get('caption'), '.', true)) {
    $this->modx->lexicon->load($namespace . ':default');
    if ($this->modx->lexicon->exists(ltrim(stristr($tv->get('caption'), '.'), '.'))) {
        $tv->set('caption', $this->modx->lexicon(ltrim(stristr($tv->get('caption'), '.'), '.')));
    }
    if ($this->modx->lexicon->exists(ltrim(stristr($tv->get('description'), '.'), '.'))) {
        $tv->set('description', $this->modx->lexicon(ltrim(stristr($tv->get('description'), '.'), '.')));
    }
}

I am glad when it becomes available as this is someday.^^
Since I have google translate. If I was using a strange word, sorry.
Thank you!

Hisato, you should know that any time you upgrade MODX, your work will be written over and you will have to do it again.

Bob is right, core modifications get overridden when upgrading, so keep that in mind =)!

Two good catches, the code didn't work for all TVs because it wasn't in the foreach loop! And also thanks for making me aware of the $modx->lexion->exists() method! I updated also the use of stristr() to strstr() (as it is possible to specify mixed case namespaces)...updated the PR!
