  I’m on a personal plan and have a blogger/follower who does not post in English. What is there on WordPress.com that will enable me to read these posts. Being on a personal plan, I can’t use plugins. Thanks for any help/advice.

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

  Hi –

  I personally use the Google Translate browser extension. With that, I just have to hover my cursor over any text that is not in English and click on the little blue Google icon. Then it will display a box with the original text and language identification, and another with the English translation.

  There’s nothing built in to WordPress.com to provide that functionality.
