Polyglot Foreign-Language Books (with translation)

The Polyglot Project is really rather clever. You can choose books from a variety of languages and read them online. Highlighting any of the words or sections immediately translates them into English. It's been set up in such a way that it minimises the break in your reading flow as there's no need to move your eyes to footnotes or navigate to another page.

Integration:

  • Learners can use the library to access books in your subject area to improve their foreign language skills
  • EAL learners can access the books in English and translate passages into their own language; great if you happen to be studying any of the classics that are already on the site
