+### Dynamic sub templates
+
+The `t-call` directive can also be used to dynamically call a sub template,
+using string interpolation. For example:
+
+```xml
+<div t-name="main-template">
+    <t t-call="{{template}}">
+        <em>content</em>
+    </t>
+</div>

+
+Here, the name of the template is obtained from the `template` value in the
+template rendering context.

 ### Translations
 
 By default, QWeb specify that templates should be translated. If this behaviour
