Mayonnaise Monday - International Languages Week Edition: That's Smorgaansbeard!
by John GlynnDid you know what happens when International Languages Week mixes with Mayonnaise Monday? It's called a "smorgaansbeard" and everyone runs for the hills with laughter!
Smorgaansbeard is probably Finnish for "a delicious meal prepared from many offerings from different portly chefs." And as you probably guessed, it is a derivate of the Japanese word "smorgasbord."
Did you know that we here at Universal Uclick/GoComics make our many delicious offerings available to a global audience? And that in fact, we translate comics into more than 10 languages (though not Vulcan, not yet) for clients across the whole Earth?
The primary language we translate into is, in fact, Spanish and if you check out this LINK, you can see all the wonderful comic features that we currently convert into that beautiful romance language.
It's also funny to note that the translators will sometimes change the comic's name if it doesn't "translate" right into a certain language or if the meaning is lost.
Let's see if you can guess the name changes in Spanish. Click the link for the right answer.
