    Hiya
    I am currently writing for a travel supplement for www.trinitynews.ie One article that we are doing is a short piece on how to order a beer in different languages.
    What I am looking for is a direct translation of the phrase
    "Can I have two beers, please" into as many languages as possible ( Im hoping to get twenty ). Also if you can contribute I would appreciate it if you can also write the phonetic version to go with it ( I know coming up with phonetics can be tricky for certain sounds but a good attempt would do ).

    Any help very much appreciated.

    ps if anyone out there speaks Farsi ( Iranian ) could you translate the phrase as 'Can I have two non-alcoholic beers, please'. Same gig goes for Arabic in Saudi !
