=Language Resources=


 * Which language is which?** Often there are many names for the same language, and at the same time many branches of a language that are different. [|Enthnologue] will help you find related languages and their various branches, countries where they are spoken, etc. This is helpful, especially when reporting languages in data collection.


 * Translation and Interpretation.** First we must differentiate between translation and interpretation. Translation usually refers to the written form, whereas interpretation refers to the spoken form of language. Therefore, if you need someone to come to a parent meeting and assist with language, you need an **interpreter.** If you need someone to change a written letter from one language to another, you need a **translator**. There are many services that can support schools in communicating with students and parents.
