Get a variable in a specific language

[Nitneuq5]

Hello,

Is it possible to get a variable in a specific language no matter what language the client is using? The aim would be to make a condition on this variable and avoid having to take into account all the translations.

Example: If the client is French, have the variable {$carrier.delay} in English for our condition. For example: {$carrier.delay|EN}

Thank you

In the documentation

Failure to comply with these guidelines will result in the wording not being ... translatable

maybe you want to intentionally fail the conditions?

 

It also says on the same page (inside code example)

// this won't work, the interpreter will ignore variables

which might be a clue?

But where do you need this variable? Is it something that you are developing?

Thank you for your feedback

The aim was to use it in the templates but in the end I went for another idea using the "grade speed" of the transporters. My goal was to subdivide my different carriers by transport method (home, pick-up point, click & collect)
