Neurofrontiers<p>As a non-native English speaker from a not-so-popular language group, learning to read even casual science stuff was an uphill battle. First I had to learn English to a reasonable level. Then I realized that English-Romanian dictionaries hadn’t really kept up with science.</p><p>I eventually managed to get my hands on a fancy English-only dictionary (yes, a printed one, this was a while ago), but then I ran into another problem: I'd start from one definition, only to find another unfamiliar word in the explanation, then another one in that definition and so on, until I forgot where I had started. And even when I did understand a concept, I'd often be stuck with the English word and with a lot of frustration about trying to convey that in my own language. </p><p>Some of those struggles are outdated now. At least you no longer have to deal with a giant dictionary pressing into your ribs if you’re reading lying down. But the language gap in science communication still exists.</p><p>That’s why I’m launching a community project: The brain across languages.</p><p>We’re inviting students who speak more than one language to help us translate Neurofrontiers content into as many languages as possible.</p><p>If you’re interested (or know someone who might be), details here: <a href="https://neurofrontiers.blog/the-brain-across-languages/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">neurofrontiers.blog/the-brain-</span><span class="invisible">across-languages/</span></a></p><p>Boosts are very much appreciated!</p><p><a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/neuroscience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>neuroscience</span></a> <a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/SciComm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SciComm</span></a> <a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/scienceOutreach" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>scienceOutreach</span></a> <a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>science</span></a> <a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/language" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>language</span></a> <a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/multilingual" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>multilingual</span></a></p>
