Usage

Within an action controller you as plugins would use the translate and translatePlural view helpers.

Instead of using something ugly as;

$helper = $this->getServiceLocator()->get('viewhelpermanager')->get('translate');
echo $helper('message');

Use this;

echo $this->translate('message');

Instead of using something ugly as;

$helper = $this->getServiceLocator()->get('viewhelpermanager')->get('translateplural');
echo sprintf($helper('%s message', '%s messages', $number), $number);

Use this;

echo sprintf($this->translatePlural('%s message', '%s messages', $number), $number);
