Overview

A gateway language (GL) is a language into which all our translation resources are being made available to help language communities translate scripture themselves.

Details

Currently, there are 37 gateway languages (see chart below). Some countries may have more than one gateway language, and some gateway languages may be needed in more than one country. Research is still ongoing to determine the complete number of gateway languages needed. Please contact us if you have information about a need in your country.

Translation Needs

There is always more to do. As Wycliffe Associates creates additional resources in English, we need them translated into the other 36 gateway languages. We can use your help.

Are you interested in maintaining a resource?

We are looking for people who are like minded, willing, passionate, and have a heart for Bible translation, especially those who believe the gateway language resources will help people translate the Bible into their own language.
