  • Translation Tools: Do you need some help on the use of the current translation-related technologies? This Facebook group helps translators deal with any technical queries relating to translation software, CAT tools, computers, etc., in a supportive environment.
  • Interpreters, Translators & Language Professionals: This Facebook group is dedicated to training and raising industry standards for language professionals. Members including people who interpreters and translators for legal, medical, commercial, scientific, language teaching, etc.
  • Things Translators Never Say: For the last one, here’s a Facebook group just for fun. This group is for freelance translators and interpreters to share tongue in cheek ideas about things that we would never ever say. For instance, when clients send ridiculous enquiries, if non-translators or non-interpreters try to explain our business, or simply when we are fed up and need to vent.
