I'm using Translate behavior. Here's the scenario: I save a translation on model 'Content' with the language Japanese. Then I check the corresponding table 'contents' in my database and I see that my 'title' and 'body' fields are changed to the translated inputs (in Japanese).

Is there a shortcut for creating Unary associations in Cake? For example, a user is a friend of another user.
