Native speakers needed? (community project)

So we all saw the awesome that is the video with the characters speaking in their own launges.
Unfortunately this movie had some rather weird voices. so I am asking if there are any native speakers who would be intrested in voice acting! I want to put some videos together with each of them speaking in their orginal laungae, only instead of the the block machanical tones ,we get to hear real humans speaking.
Anyway, if your intrested, I.E. you speak one of the languages in Hetalia, please comment or Email me at Darksideofthetree@yahoo.com
we will see if we have a enough intrest.
ATTENTION
DUE TO THE EFF'ING WIN AMOUNT OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE COME FORWARD I HAVE LOST TRACK OF WHOM I HAVE PUT DOWN AS WHO. IF I HAVE CONFIRMED YOU A SPOT PLEASE SOUND OFF IN THE COMMENTS WITH WHICH PART I HAVE CONFIRMED.

Hmm... I have a microphone and it's okay I think, not perfect but okay.

I'm German, a girl, but I could try to speak ..manly.

PERFECT! *Glomps* But yeah don't worry I am sure 99% of the fandom is girls so... I didn't expect a manly german to be surfing the internet or anything :D.
So can I count on you as Ludwig? Or are you aiming for gilbo?

Yay :D
I'd try Ludwig, yes. If a manly German appears I could also switch to Gilbo or HRE (I think Austria would sound great with Austrian dialect which I can't speak XD but would work as well) but I'd be happy if I could speak Ludwig :D

I dub thee ludwig the ever exasperated.
And nah I just wondered if there was a difference. I always fancied that East Germany sounded a bit like a west cost accent does in English.

:)
Well, there are some dialects... and West Germans (me for example XD) often link East German with Saxonian dialect... but normally we all speak standard German (more or less).

Cool! XD I feel so speicial knowing someone who can speak German

*squeal* why do I feel honored now? xD

XD I don't know but It might be becuase you have someone who loves languages gushing over yours :D

XD Oh yes, it's great to live in a world with so many languages even if learning them is a pain sometimes:)

Well I know a little bit of german. You know the stuff i hear in movies and on rha... Rhamstien? I am learning how to say "Sorry I am an american" In as many Languages as I can so...
Still when I listen I find that its close enough to English that to a point I can understand it.

That's not surprising, considering English is a Germanic language. :)

But it also barrow heavily from the Celtic and French languages, and even today we are amalgamating more and more words into our dictornary. Hell look at Ebonics.

Actually, English follows other languages down dark alleys and mugs them for loose grammar. 83 ...Stating the obvious, I am, I am. Getting back to the point ('cause I'm scatterbrained and love going off on random tangents), the people who study language (linguists? Brain fart, try again later) I believe still classify English as a Germanic language. I dunno why, since it technically steals from every language, but that's not my place to call the shots. ._.;

*pops in out of nowhere upon hearing grammar discussion*
English is kinda like the pirate language, (joke unintentional) for every word it takes from Germanic origin it steals another from a Latin language. That is why English dictionaries are so freakishly huge. Not to mention the vast differences between British and American English. There are even some grammar rules that apply differently depending on the type. (I've been told the grammar in American English is a bit more confusing compared to British Grammar) _{Gee, you think it's obvious enough that I want to study linguistics? XD} Basically, grammar wise, English is retarded. Too many rules that make no sense. ._. The only good thing about it is that it's not a gendered language, making sentence construction a bit easier.

Ehhh... German. I spoke it fluently as a child, so I'm sure the language skills are lurking in my brain somewhere. But at the moment, it's been over ten years since I've used it and it all went poof. T^T I cant even read German children's books anymore. Do you know how stupid it makes you feel to not be able to read a book you read when you were five? ._. I'm attempting to relearn it, but with difficulty. I do get this weird deja vu feeling whenever I hear it though. :P

Though I have to say the hardest language I've ever attempted to learn was Mandarin Chinese. No... Just no. Two semesters worth of classes did me no good. I still suck. *sigh*

*finishes language rant and scampers away*

Rammstein :D A German band making good music XD
It's right about the English thing, German and English are more similar than to Spanish or Italian :)

Still, I love German grammar. XD My teacher is amazing at teaching that aspect of the language. :3

Really? I've heard from many people that this is the part of the language they hate most XD
But if you have a good teacher it's better than with a boring or stupid one :)

It's only 'cause he pokes some fun at both the English and German grammar structures. XD And he's all, "So long as you have the verb in position 2, you can do whatever you want." And then goes off in a really long sentence in German just to prove his point. ^^

Haha, that's nice :)

what is the grammer structure

Well... I don't really know because I'm used to it, but many people say the German grammar is difficult :)

Mhh can't be worse that the Japanese *glares at her text book*

Okay, so the major rule for conjugating a verb in German is to keep it in the second "position." I'll just post a random sentence.

Ich bin ein Berliner. (lawl total JFK quote right there)

"bin" has to be in the second position. The other words? You can mix the hell out of them and it'll still make sense so long as you keep the verb in position two.

Ein Berliner bin ich. Yay, grammar win!
Ich ein Berliner bin. Aw, grammar fail. D:

I'd go on more, but I have no time. ._. My sis just got home~. XD

Yeah my boyfriend got me hooked on Rammstien. I was a complete J-pop whore before them.

Rammstein isn't my favourite band but I like them, too :)
