Hi,  
i want to print `{{ partial "en/contact" . }}` or `{{ partial "de/contact" . }}` depending on `.Site.LanguageCode` (en/de) string, to import the right contactform into my index page.

But i am stuck with printf:

```
{{ $site_langcode := .Site.LanguageCode }}
{{ partial " $site_langcode/contact" . }}
or
{{ partial "(printf $site_langcode)/contact" . }}

```

Or anything else I tried did not work.

I would be happy about a solution so my site is getting finished. But jekyll to hugo is worthwhile 😃
