How can I add a translation template-tag inside another template-tag in Django?

This is my template code:

{{ can_edit|yesno:'Allow edit,View Only' }}

But I want to translate it automatically from my translation strings, so I did this:

{{ can_edit|yesno:'{% trans "option_allow_edit" %},{% trans "option_allow_edit" %}' }}

But it doesn't work, because it escapes the {% trans %} tags.

How can I do it?

You can use the _() syntax.

Here is an example from the Django documentation:

{% some_tag _("Page not found") value|yesno:_("yes,no") %

So in your case you can do this:

{{ can_edit|yesno:_('Allow edit,View Only') }}

You should try using the blocktrans template tag. 

{% blocktrans with editable=can_edit|yesno:'Allow edit,View Only' %}
    {{ editable }}
{% endblocktrans %}
