Is the issue that you want to be able to add phrases etc through a web interface instead of editing & uploading the file every time?
If so, either way you're going to have to add some sort of form for adding new phrases, it might just be easier to keep the language.php file and implement a form on an admin page that just writes to the php file on post. There are plenty of pre-existing free PHP scripts that allow you to do this (most do it for config files etc during install, but can be repurposed for this).
There are also scripts that let you edit the files in a WYSIWYG editor, also an option.
