I'm building an online store that will be supported in 3 languages: English, Traditional Chinese, and Simplified Chinese.

My question is whether or not it is a good idea to make language specific URLs for SEO purposes. So if I'm viewing the site in english, the urls on the product page are in english, but if I view the site in traditional chinese, then the urls are written in traditional chinese.

E.g. mysite.com/items/1/blue_cup (english) mysite.com/xxxxx/1/xxxxxxxx (traditional chinese) mysite.com/yyyyy/1/yyyyyyyy (simplified chinese)

EDIT
I should note that this is a site primarily built for a Traditional Chinese speaking country so it should cater towards that audience and their dominant search engine: Yahoo
