Title
Body
I'm looking for a sane way to get to the untranslated content of a ugettext_lazy ied string. I found two ways, but I'm not happy with either one: the_string = ugettext_lazy('the content') the_content = the_string._proxy____args[0] # ewww! or from django.utils.translation import activate, get_language from django.utils.encoding import force_unicode the_string = ugettext_lazy('the content') current_lang = get_language() activate('en') the_content = force_unicode(the_string) activate(current_lang) The first piece of code accesses an attribute that has been explicitly marked as private, so there is no telling how long this code will work. The second solution is overly verbose and slow. Of course, in the actual code, the definition of the ugettext_lazy ied string and the code that accesses it are miles appart.
