A preview of the selected translation from the quarter gone by.

Once a quarter, the Lingua project's Translation Managers select one or two outstanding translations that deserve a special round of applause, and those translations are showcased in a special section of this website called Translated Story Spotlight, alongside a few words as to why they were chosen.

Selections have been made, and the latest batched of highlighted work is live, so be sure to browse through them. As well, check out the list below of translators whose work was nominated.

And of course, stay tuned for next quarter's selections!
