# Translate (.$)

If you would like to translate a mentioned taxonomy option of an `information` when it is being printed on a document, simply refer to it using `.$` instead of `.`.

### Example: Simple

To print "CITY, COUNTRY" of an entity in the request language on a document a calculated `information` with the following [RuLa](/rule-language/what-is-the-rule-language.md) expression is created:

```
e is Entity
e.city + ", " + e.$country
```

The first part, `e.city`, prints the city of the entity as usual. The second part, `e.$country`, though references the country in a way that the name of the country is translated into the requested language when the document is created. So when a user requests the document in german, this would print e.g. `Berlin, Deutschland`, when requested in English `Berlin, Germany`.

### Example: Creating an Address

The following expression would put a printable address into a calculated `information`:

```
p is Person
JOIN(
    [
        p.street_and_number,
        p.postal_code + ' ' + p.city,
        p.$domicile
    ], 
    '\n'
)
```
