Afrikaans: Die Aarde se tektoniese plate.
Die sleutelbeginsel van plaattektoniek is dat die litosfeer uit afsonderlike en onderskeibare tektoniese plate bestaan, wat op die vloeistofagtige ('n visko-elastiese vastestof) astenosfeer drywe. Die relatiewe vloeibaarheid van die astenosfeer laat die tektoniese plate toe om in verskillende rigtings te beweeg. Hierdie kaart toon 15 van die grootste plate. Let daarop dat die Indo-Australiese Plaat moontlik uitmekaar breek in die Indiese en Australiese plate, wat afsonderlik op hierdie kaart aangedui word.

Bahasa Indonesia: Inti dari tektonika lempeng adalah bahwa litosfer terdiri dari lempeng-lempeng tektonik yang mengambang di atas astenosfer yang serupa fluida (padatan visko-elastik). Fluiditas relatif astenosfer memungkinkan lempeng-lempeng tektonik ini untuk mengalami pergerakan ke arah yang berbeda-beda. Peta ini menunjukkan 15 lempeng terbesar. Perhatikan bahwa Lempeng Indo-Australia bisa terbelah menjadi lempeng India dan Australia (dalam peta ini digambarkan terpisah).

English: The key principle of plate tectonics is that the lithosphere exists as separate and distinct tectonic plates, which float on the fluid-like (visco-elastic solid) asthenosphere. The relative fluidity of the asthenosphere allows the tectonic plates to undergo motion in different directions. This map shows 15 of the largest plates. Note that the Indo-Australian Plate may be breaking apart into the Indian and Australian plates, which are shown separately on this map.

Français : Le principe clé de la tectonique des plaques est que la lithosphère rigide est formée de plaques distinctes et indépendantes, qui flottent sur l'asthénosphère visco-élastique. La fluidité relative de l'asthénosphère permet aux plaques tectoniques de faire des mouvements dans différentes directions. Cette carte montre 15 des plus grandes plaques. Notez que les plaques indienne et australienne, qui sont montrées séparément sur cette carte, soient selon les auteurs parfois regroupées en une seule plaque indo-australienne.

Tiếng Việt: Nguyên tắc quan trọng của kiến tạo mảng là thạch quyển tồn tại dưới dạng các mảng kiến tạo riêng biệt và khác biệt, chúng trôi nổi trên khí quyển giống như chất lỏng (chất rắn đàn hồi). Tính lưu động tương đối của khí quyển cho phép các mảng kiến tạo chuyển động theo các hướng khác nhau. Bản đồ này cho thấy 15 tấm lớn nhất. Lưu ý rằng mảng Ấn-Úc có thể tách ra thành mảng Ấn Độ và Úc, được hiển thị riêng biệt trên bản đồ này.

Українська: Основним принципом тектоніки плит є те, що літосфера існує як різні і відокремлені тектонічні плити, які плавають в'язкій астеносфері. Відносна рухливість астеносфери дозволяє тектонічним плитам здійснювати рухи в різних напрямках. Ця карта зображує 15 найбільших плит. Зверніть увагу, що Індо-Австралійська плита може бути розділена на Індостанську та Австралійську плити, які показані окремо на цій карті.

한국어: 지각 구조와 판 사진이다, 판구조지질학(plate tectonics)의 핵심 원리는 암석권(lithosphere)이 지질구조판들로 따로 존재하면서, 액체같은(점탄성 고체) 연약권(asthenosphere) 위에 떠 있다는 것이다. 연약권이 상대적으로 액상이어서, 지질구조판들이 다른 방향으로 움직이게 된다. 이 지도에 가장 큰 판들 15개를 표시해놓았다. 인도-오스트레일리아 판이 인도판과 오스트레일리아판들로 분열되고 있어서, 따로 표시해놓았음을 주목해주시기 바란다.(영문 번역)
