| Hi,
I'm looking for a translation of the Owl and the Pussy-cat by Edward Lear on behalf of my friend who is making a collection of this poem in as many languages as he can, just for fun. He's 97-year-old and this hobby gives him a great pleasure.
http://www.nonsenselit.org/Lear/ns/pussy.html
He started about a year ago and we managed to get it in more than 30 languages so far. Because we are running out of resources I decided to ask help from communities who dedicated to translation.
It doesn't need to be a professional translation.
Here's a website that I started to set up to share all the translations that we've got so far. Some of them was made by poets but most of them just by friends or people who we run into in different places (waiters of the local restaurant, nurses from hospital, etc). They did the best they could and they just did it for fun and because they wanted to add their own language to this collection.

Here is the list of the languages that we've got so far:
Afrikaans
Catalan
Chinese
Danish
Dutch
Esperanto
Finnish
French
German
Greek
Hebrew
Hungarian
Italian
Korean
Kyrgyz
Latin
Lithuanian
Macedonian
Norvegian
Pilipino/Tagalog
Polish
Portuguese
Portuguese from Brazil
Russian
Slovenian
Spanish
Swedish
Turkish
Welsh
We've got a Thai version but just only the first verse, so we're looking for the remaining two.
If you could translate it into any language that is not on the list that would be a great help for us.
For exchange I always mention who did the translation at the end of the poem and if you wish it can be linked to your website or email address.
Thanks again for anyone who will help us.

If you have a little one into gaming, make sure they are learning social skills in real life, before online. The virtual world may be okay to make friends on once a child has developed sufficient social skills, but if they learn online first you could be compromising their ability to get on in the real world later.

One of the best things that you can do to maximize your overall experience during game play is to turn off the lights. This is especially fun with horror games, as it can increase the overall effect that you get. Creating an optimal environment when playing is very beneficial for you and your friends.
