Suppose I wanted my website to have

www.aaa.com/bbbb www.aaa.com/th/bbbb

The first one is the default language while second one is in Thai. I think I should prepared my folder structure like this :

root -bbbb --index.html --images -th --bbbb ---index.html

Now that I copied the index.html file from /bbbbfolder into /th/bbbb folder and finished translate it, I realized that all path for images like in <img src= or url(... of CSS has been broken because I did not copied the whole bbbb/images folder with it.

Instead of rewriting every url to go back one step and look for images in /bbbb folder (that is, prefix every URL with ../bbbb/) is there more practical way? Because the translated page uses nearly identical images with original ones.

Also for the solution presented, would that impact the SEO of images in any way?

Yes, there is a more practical way. Use relative paths everywhere. Instead of setting your image path to src='www.aaa.com/images/myimage.jpg', set it to src='/images/myimage.jpg' instead.

Using relative path has no impact on SEO. It is neutral.
