In the blog of Multilingual Month people from different Nordic countries share their thoughts on multilingualism, mother tongue, translation and interpretation as well as on how to work and act between languages. How is multilingualism and language diversity visible in the daily life, arts and literature? How is it taken into account in different organizations? The main languages of the blog is English, but texts in other languages with a resume in English are also welcome.
The blog texts will be published twice a week from the beginning of February until the end of March.
The editor of the blog is Rita Paqvalén (rita.paqvalen[at]cultureforall.fi).
