PHP: how to tell ezi18n which language to use?

Hello there!

I'm looking for a PHP function that could explicitely translate a given text into a language context, something like:

$lang 'fre-FR';
// does not exist!
$french = ezi18n( 'context' , 'english text' , $lang ) ;

but unfortunately, there's no such a language parameter in this function.

Does somebody have an idea how to force a translation to a language?

Thanks in advance,
</Pascal>

If someone faces the same challenge some day, here's how I solved it:

function &translate_to_lang( $context, $source ,$language ) {
	$ini =& eZINI::instance();
	$file = 'translation.ts';
	$comment = null;

	// translation.ts translation
	$useCache = $ini->variable( 'RegionalSettings', 'TranslationCache' ) != 'disabled';
	eZTSTranslator::initialize( $context, $language, $file, $useCache );

	$man =& eZTranslatorManager::instance();
	$trans = $man->translate( $context, $source, $comment );
	if ( $trans !== null ) {
		$text = ezinsertarguments( $trans, $arguments );
		return $text;
	}

	eZDebug::writeWarning( "No translation for file(translation.ts) in context($context): '$source' with comment($comment)", "ezi18n" );
	$text = ezinsertarguments( $source, $arguments );
	return $text;
}
