django, change language settings dynamically

After some failed attempts, I just found how to change the language settings dynamically in django, and I thought it could be useful to someone. Just use function activate() from django.utils.translation. For example:

from django.utils.translationimport activate
activate(‘es-ES’)

will change global language settings to ‘es-ES’ (Spain spanish). I use it because I have two forms and I want that errors appear in different languages, but I do not want to get into gettext
