I love it when dogs try to help but the task at hand requires zero dogs so they just kinda stand in front of you and look serious.

“hallelujah” by leonard cohen being played as an easter and christmas song, “zombie” by the cranberries” being played as a halloween song, and “born in the U.S.A.” by bruce springsteen being played as a Fourth of July/generic us patriotism song have got to be a special trifecta of the most no-listening-comprehension musical moments that happen on seasonal playlists every single year

the worst part about studying languages is knowing that you will never be nearly as good at it as a literal baby

an alumni from my school told me something that really stuck with me so i thought i would share it with any of my followers who are also students. she said “try to get good grades, but make it the least impressive thing about you.” soft skills are just as important! practice empathy, leadership, and communication! have hobbies and find new things that you’re good at!! know what your values are and how you act on them!! these things are so important 🌱

Make the World a Better Place: How Bilingual & Multilingual People Can Use Our Skills For Good

One perhaps overlooked way to assist vulnerable and disadvantaged people is to volunteer as a translator or interpreter. Many people around the world need help but cannot speak English such as many refugees and asylum seekers. Many people need access to key information in their own languages. If you can speak another language, you can help not-for-profit organisations overcome these barriers.

You do not have to be a professional translator to make a difference. Anybody can register on one of these platforms and commit to the extent that they can.

Tarjimly

This is one of my favourite apps. It is essentially a global army of volunteer translators who can be connected as translators and interpreters with those who need help. You can download the app immediately, take the introductory training courses (which ensure that you understand priorities such as ethics) and wait to receive an offer to help.

Translators Without Borders

This is a network of volunteer translators and probably the most famous one. You register, fill in your profile and expertise (you do not need to be an expert but verified and accredited translators will receive offers on a preferential basis) and contribute toward vital humanitarian action.

Respond Crisis Translation

This is a group of volunteer translators and interpreters committed to delivering “compassionate, effective and trauma-informed m” services for refugees, migrants and other people who need help.

Charity Translators

This is a community of translators providing much needed assistance to the charity and aid sector on a voluntary basis.

PerMondo

This initiative allows anyone to use their multilingualism to help various non-profit organisations.

Translations for Progress

This site links volunteer translators with public-good organisations.
