The dcgettext function allows you to override the current domain for a single

string dgettext(string domain, string message)
The dgettext function allows you to override the current domain for a single message

string gettext(string message) string _(string message)
The Gettext function attempts to return a translated string. The message argument is
used as both the key to the translation table and the default text if a translation is not
found. The underscore character is an alias for the gettext function to help reduce
cluttering your code.
<?
//set language to Spanish
putenv("LANG=es");
//specify location of translation tables
bindtextdomain("error_messages", "./locale");
//choose domain
textdomain("error_messages");
//print a test message
print(gettext("This book is named Core PHP

The textdomain function sets the domain to search within when calls are made to
gettext. The domain is usually the name of your application. The previous domain is
returned. If you just want to get the current setting, pass an empty string. The default
domain is called messages.
