She was part of a generation that still had access to Latin in the public system. Latin cracked open a fascination with language that never left her.

I’m deeply enraged by the lack of native language support for Haitian Creole on iOS and Android. On iOS, though it does the right thing and provides Haitian Creole as a top level language (ht), it’s basically a localization of French, not transliterated Haitian Creole. On Android, even though Haitian Creole is an ISO language code, it’s not even an option. You can only select French, then a localization for Haiti. How can I select Esperanto but not Haitian Creole? #languageaccess #racism

YouTube launches auto-dubbing feature, generating translated audio tracks for hundreds of thousands of knowledge and info-focused channels! A game-changer for global accessibility. #YouTube #AutoDubbing #TechNews #ContentCreation #LanguageAccess #GlobalReach #DigitalInnovation
I wrote a quick brief for public sector employees thinking about 'using AI for translations in everything'

Multilingual ballots are critical for democracy — they help more people be confident voters!
Bonus: English +1 means any ballot can be used by English-speaking voters, reducing how many ballots need to be printed and saving $$$. And this way, all ballots are auditable in English.

I'm putting together a resource on composting with worms in order to have it translated into a few languages spoken in my city, and I plan to print copies to give away with composting worms on Earth Day. Anyone on here want to make suggestions about additional info that would be useful? Comments are open. #compost #EarthDay #LanguageAccess #SomerPoli #SomervilleMA

It is a real blessing to have new people following me on here. For those who haven't done it yet, I am currently doing a global survey of what #churches are doing to provide #languageAccess, if anything.
The survey takes 5-10 minutes and opens in a Google Form from this link:

Please do boost. I am especially looking for responses outside of the US and UK.

Nearly half of #SanFrancisco’s residents speak a language other than English at home. While there's a city law that requires access to government services in a few languages, too many of our #SF neighbors are left out.

Is it difficult to understand #multilingual posts? For example #LanguageAccess in terms of #LanguageAternation, or #CodeSwitching, as well as #Creole and #pidgin or #MacaronicVerse traditions. How of often do you jump between languages in your #writing and #comprehension.
Do you have helpful solutions!
Does anyone have resources on multilingual, intergenerational, community food gardening? With limited resources to pay for interpreters, any guides, tool kits, curricula, or just plain stories and suggestions based on experience would be very valued!
