  <Entity Type="Categories">

    <Language>it-IT</Language>

    <SortOrder>[]</SortOrder>
    <SharepointId>[]</SharepointId>
    <CategoryLanguage>[]</CategoryLanguage>
    <GroupName>AVS</GroupName>
  </Entity>
<SexyContentData>

This format works well to open in Excel and save again.

Special notes

  1. Each language will have an own row - but each with the same GUID as the other languages of the same item
  2. Special translation scenarios have special placeholders so a re-import will preserve that state

Known Issues

If you have a field called <Body> Excel seems to cause trouble. In that case we recommend you temporarily change all the XML nodes in a text-editor with Search-Replace, then edit in Excel and replace back when done.
