Hello!
I'm working on a webcomic. One of the jokes refers to the "Language" option screen on games. As the characters franticly attempt to locate "English" again in the menu, their dialog is to appear in various interesting looking languages.
What I want to do is translate the dialog into a handful of "interesting looking languages", such as:
English (intro and punchline), Russian, German, Japanese, Basque, Chinese, Greek, Hebrew, etc.
I'm looking for an interesting mix of words that use familiar letterforms but interesting grammar/spelling (German), languages that look like they SHOULD be easily recognized (Russian), and languages with really wild and interesting letterforms (Chinese, Japanese, Hebrew).
As this is a webcomic, I can't really afford a professional translation service. Where might I find volunteer translators for a few lines, or a paragraph at most? I want the dialog to be idiomatic and natural, not machine translated and choppy.
