What is the world’s most translated website?
Have you ever wondered what the world’s most
translated website is? Maybe Apple?
Google? Wikipedia?
It’s actually the official website of the Jehovah’s Witnesses
The site has been translated into a staggering 731 different languages, as well as many
different nationalities’ sign languages
To put that in perspective, Apple’s website has been translated into 126 languages, Google’s search page is available in 149 languages and
Wikipedia has content available in 290 languages
Additionally, the Jehovah’s Witnesses’ physical publications are translated into even more languages
and distributed globally – a staggering feat of coordinated translation
The Watchtower, in the US, is the global
HQ of Jehovah’s Witnesses and all
adherents must be able to read its
publications, hence the vast number of
translations
The huge volume of translations is an extensive effort to include all believers, no mater what their background or native tongue may be –
the work that goes into it is mind-boggling!
