    7070``django-admin.py makemessages`` on the project level will only translate
    7171strings that are connected to your explicit project and not strings that are
    7272distributed independently.

     74Using translations outside views and templates
     75==============================================
     76
     77While Django provides a rich set of i18n tools for use in views and templates,
     78it does not restrict the usage to Django-specific code. The Django translation
     79mechanisms can be used to translate arbitrary texts to any language that is
     80supported by Django (as long as an appropriate translation catalog exists, of
     81course). You can load translation catalog, activate it and translate text to
     82language of your choice, but remember to switch back to original language, as
     83activating translation catalog is done in per-thread basis and such change
     84will affect code running in the same thread.
     85
     86For example::
     87
     88    from django.utils import translation
     89    def welcome_translated(language):
     90        cur_language = translation.get_language()
     91        try:
     92            translation.activate(language)
     93            text = translation.ugettext('welcome')
     94        finally:
     95            translation.activate(cur_language)
     96        return text
     97
     98Calling this function with argument 'de' will give you ``"wilkommen"``,
     99regardless of :setting:`LANGUAGE_CODE` and language set by middleware.
     100
     101Function of particular interest are ``django.utils.translation.get_language()``
     102which returns language used in current thread, and
     103``django.utils.translation.activate()`` which activates translation catalog for
     104current thread. Other useful function is
     105``django.utils.translation.check_for_language()`` checks if language is
     106supported by Django.
