Multilingual Translation As a Tool For Communication And Inclusion In Museums

This article addresses the importance of multilingual translation in museums, emphasizing its role in communication and visitor inclusion. It focuses on the Agadir Museum of Art, highlighting that linguistic diversity requires efforts to enable all visitors to access museum information, regardless of their native language. The methodology includes a qualitative analysis of translation practices and interviews with experts and museum staff, based on concepts of intercultural communication and inclusivity. The results reveal a significant presence of multilingual translations but underscore the need to further integrate the Amazigh language alongside Arabic. The article also proposes the introduction of electronic devices to include other languages, such as German, in response to the increasing number of German-speaking visitors. These initiatives are deemed essential for providing an inclusive museum experience that reflects Morocco's cultural diversity

Abstract

This article addresses the importance of multilingual translation in museums, emphasizing its role in communication and visitor inclusion. It focuses on the Agadir Museum of Art, highlighting that linguistic diversity requires efforts to enable all visitors to access museum information, regardless of their native language. The methodology includes a qualitative analysis of translation practices and interviews with experts and museum staff, based on concepts of intercultural communication and inclusivity. The results reveal a significant presence of multilingual translations but underscore the need to further integrate the Amazigh language alongside Arabic. The article also proposes the introduction of electronic devices to include other languages, such as German, in response to the increasing number of German-speaking visitors. These initiatives are deemed essential for providing an inclusive museum experience that reflects Morocco's cultural diversity
