If you use forms you can add elements and their validators with custom error messages

If you use tags::forms elements you can check element name and if it a error message to show

Good luck

There are two issues here.

1) How to know if a field is invalid It is difficult to give you a simple answer because there are many different ways this can be accomplished. You could simply iterate through $_POST. Or you could assign title and description to a Model, and set up validation in the model.

2) How to tell the user in the correct language. Have you looked into Phalcon's Translate functionality: https://docs.phalcon.io/en/3.4/translate
