  Hi WordPress team,

  I’d like understand how I can add a different language version of my blog’s contents to my present account.
  I’d like to allow my visitors to choose the preferred language, creating sort of duplicate of my present blog’s contents but in a different language.
  If I have to register a new account, how can I link then the two together?
  Thanks DM

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  You can chose more than one language for your blog here > Settings > general. You can however blog in as many languages as you want. The dynamic widgets for switching languages cannot be used on free hosted WordPress.com blogs as this is a multiuser blogging platform with code restrictions.

  You have a Translations page or this translation widget which can be used on free hosted WordPress.com blogs.

  If I have to register a new account, how can I link then the two together?

  You can also have multiple blogs in different languages and include custom links to them in a custom menu.
