Currently you can't do that - if you set a part of the field (e.g. lang)
then the whole row would be "set" and written to the database. You could
(as with anything) customise EPrint's behaviour by writing a custom
InputForm component, or a Javascript "hack" to modify the behaviour.

The Multilang field (which subject.name is) has a predefined set of
languages, which allows the user to input different languages.

The language of the interface is determined by whether a lang matches
the browser's language. If your browser is set to 'uk' EPrints will look
for phrases first in 'uk', then in the next language available ('en').

Cheers,
Tim.
