Language Spotlight: Aymara

Language Spotlight: Aymara

Every once in a while, we like to highlight the languages supported on Amara. New languages can be requested by emailing our support team at support@amara.org and telling them the language name, typing direction, and ISO language code if you have it!

Localization as a gateway for cultural appreciation

Localization as a gateway for cultural appreciation

The existence of the internet has made it possible for us to be in contact with people from all over the world, people that we might never have had the chance to interact with otherwise.

Travel: celebrate the beauty of diversity in our world

Travel: celebrate the beauty of diversity in our world

I’ve always spent my time climbing trees and hills, discovering hidden places at my grandparents’ countryside home, and sometimes even getting in trouble because of that.
