You’ll find nearly 400 blogs listed on this page. Although most are about translation, I’ve also added some on interpreting and some non-translation blogs related to grammar, writing and editing.
Please feel free to contact me with your suggestions if you think I’ve left an interesting blog out or if a link doesn’t work.
Although this list started out based on blogs in languages I can understand (English, Spanish and German), I’m quite happy to add colleagues’ recommendations in other languages too.

Blogs with no new content in the past five years will be removed from the list.
