AngularJS Translation Filter

I'm very new to AngularJS. I'm using a directive for translation of category objects like:

{
"id":17,
"order":2,
"published":false,
"createdAt":"2014-12-29T16:22:43.000Z",
"updatedAt":"2014-12-29T16:23:22.000Z",
"CategoryTranslations":[
   {
      "id":13,
      "name":"Fishes",
      "description":"Fishes desc",
      "CategoryId":17,
      "LanguageId":1,
      "Language":{
         "id":1,
         "code":"en_EN",
         "name":"English"
      }
   }
]
 }

Filter:

app.filter('categoryTranslations', function() {
return function(categories, locale) {
    var translated = [];
    if (typeof categories != 'undefined') {
        for (var i = 0; i < categories.length; i++) {
            var category = categories[i];
            for (var j = 0; j < category.CategoryTranslations.length; j++) {
                var translation = category.CategoryTranslations[j];
                if (translation.Language.code == locale) {
                    category.defaultTranslation = translation;
                    translated.push(category);
                    break;
                }
            }
        }
    }
    return translated;
};
});

I really don't like the code and am looking for a better way to solve this problem.

I don't know much about angular.js myself, but I can give some small tips about your code.

Indentation

Code, in general, looks ugly without proper indentation.

I recommend that you indent the body of the second parameter passed into app.filter.

Why are you checking with 'undefined'?

On the line that goes:

if (typeof categories != 'undefined') {

Why are you comparing with 'undefined'?

If you want to check is categories was defined, you could just do

if (categories) {
