Would probably have been easier if I told you what I want to achieve ;)

I have my pagebrowser now built as a viewhelper but I want to have the
strings (like "next" and "previous") translatable --> for that I thought
it would be an easy way to call the translation viewHelper in my own
viewHelper for translating the values. If you have another idea or would
do it another way: every hint is welcome! (My main code for the
pagebrowser is below)

Thanks, I'll try that!

Cheers!

Code:
public function render($items=NULL,$max=5) {
	$pagesTotal = ceil($items/$max);
	$currentPage = (int)$_GET['tx_addresses_pi1']['page'];
	if(($currentPage+1) == $pagesTotal) {
		$next = 'next';
	} else {
		$next = $this->getLink(($currentPage+1), 'next');
	}
	if($currentPage == 0) {
		$previous = 'previous';
	} else {
		$previous = $this->getLink(($currentPage-1), 'previous');
	}

	$content = $previous . ' Page ' . ($currentPage+1)  . ' out of ' .
$pagesTotal . ' ' . $next;
	return $content;
}
