Translations are stored as JSON on the model itself. No extra tables, no pivot.

Making a model translatable

Declare translatable attributes via the #[Translatable] PHP attribute (preferred) and add the HasTranslations trait.

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Spatie\Translatable\Attributes\Translatable;
use Spatie\Translatable\HasTranslations;

#[Translatable('name', 'description')]
class NewsItem extends Model
{
    use HasTranslations;
}
