Whoa! That looks like so much fun to try!
I've been fancying that I could study linguistics in college. Time to put that idea to the test, huh?
I don't have the time tonight, so I'll have to do this later this week or this weekend - maybe I'll print it and do it at school, huh?
Of course, if it's geared towards students of those languages, I may not be cut out for the material - I'm a native speaker of English and study Japanese, so it's completely out of my league.
Still! Looks cool~

EDIT: Oh god it gets kinda hard gonk I'm not going to take it (too hard-looking), but I think writing one's answers in white would work, so it's not spoiled for those who want to take it.

I finished the first two sections within 30 minutes, but I can't translate the second two sections. No one else has posted here, and I'm not too confident with my answers, but here's what I got for the first two sections.
A) The gun helps the farmers.
The birds see the boys.
Exmilkyd exghrabop exrassop
B) The crow's noises scared the boy.
The boy stole the farmer's egg.
Exfelhorip extalkyj exsabyom exgraborim exsahbom
I've thrown in the towel but I'd love to see what others got. I may try this again someday too. smile
PS. Quote my post to see. I used size 0 instead of white. White text page stretch annoyed me. rofl

We got the same thing for the weird-language to English, but not for the English to weird-language. That's about what I got for C on the first one...but I didn't think it made sense, I just gave up completely at C. XD
