  Hello!
  I am writing some articles on my wordpress website, those articles are in french (I’m french), the problem I have is that I’d like to create an english version of my articles as well. Do you know how to do without being forced to create each time two articles (1 french and 1 english) (I mean: I translate the article by myself but I just would like that the visitor can choose the language or something like that).

  Thank you in advance.

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

  Automatic translation is not available to WordPress.com blogs. We bloggers do not have FTP access to blogs hosted by WordPress.COM and we bloggers cannot install any plugins, we cannot use Microsoft or Google translation widgets or any others, as they are JavaScript and it’s stripped out to preserve security on this multiuser blogging platform. http://en.support.wordpress.com/code/
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/code/#javascript

  However, I have translation on my WordPress.com blogs. There are two workarounds and you will find them here > http://onecoolsite.wordpress.com/2011/02/14/translation-widget-for-wordpress-com-blogs/

  Note: You can create a page https://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/ then and copy and paste the code on my Translations page here http://onecoolsite.wordpress.com/translation/ Be sure to replace every occurrence of my blog’s URL in the code with your own blog’s URL.

  If you are bilingual or multilingual and want to publish your free hosted WordPress.com in two or more languages but do not want to rely on machine translation that can be done see here >
