hi

look at http://www.zope.org/Members/efge/TranslationService

this should answer your questions
and the following should work

<span tal:content="some/expresion" i18n:translate="">Sie sind hier</span>

the result of some/expresion is the msgid for the TranslationService and 
the default value

cheers, bernd
