subject: Keep Up To Date With Latest Language News [print this page] If you work in an export or multinational business, are a teacher of MFL or just have a passion for different languages and cultures then you will probably enjoy keeping up to date with the latest language events and language news.
From specialist publications such as interpreting and translation magazines, to the range of language blogs and websites, there are many ways of sourcing your language news.
Blogs in particular are a really good way of keeping up to date. They are naturally search engine friendly, due to the fact they are updated regularly, so you'll often find the search engine listings are full of blog results. Websites are also a good source of language news but unless they are updated regularly, the information can be out of date by the time you find it.
Details of language events can also be found via the same publications and websites, though it often helps to know whether you are looking for local, regional or national events as there are different sites and organisations dedicated to different areas.
Many websites give you the opportunity to upload details of your own language events to their searchable listings, which is a great way of getting some free publicity for your activities. Signing up for ezines and newsletters from language and cultural websites also ensures that you are kept up to date with news and events.
You could also try sending details of your language news and language events to your local newspaper. Although the regional and local papers have seen a reduced volume and circulation over recent years, most also have websites where stories are published.
To conclude then, the best place to start your search for language news and language events is on the internet - because the information is up to date and most printed publications can also be found online.
