I am trying to use django-multilingual and setup it properly. But what I found is that everything is clear for django-multilingual except a template usage example.

I just started to use django and I don't know, maybe because of this reason, I cannot figure out how to switch between languages on template side.

Is there any example that you can give or any 'more' clear source/documentation about this?
