Catalan Identity and Language Attitudes Through Fan Translation of Video Games in the Digital Wilds
For fans of popular cultural products, digitization has meant the configuration of affinity spaces online and opportunities for learning in the “digital wilds,” including incidental language learning and identity development.

Results indicated distributed roles, routinized translation practic…
