# HBS_TRANSLATE_PROPERTY {#co-hbs-translate-property}

Translates a renderable property using EXT:form's `<formvh:translateElementProperty>`
view helper.

**Configuration**

-   **property**

    -   *Type:* string
    -   *Default:* *(required)*

    Name of the element property to translate.

-   **argumentName**

    -   *Type:* string
    -   *Default:* `property`

    Argument name passed to the view helper. Use `renderingOptionProperty`
    to translate a rendering option rather than a regular property.

**Example**

```typoscript
placeholder = HBS_TRANSLATE_PROPERTY
placeholder.property = placeholder

submitButtonLabel = HBS_TRANSLATE_PROPERTY
submitButtonLabel {
    property = submitButtonLabel
    argumentName = renderingOptionProperty
}
```
