Does anybody here speak (or read/write) the Bulgarian language?

I have a Bulgarian friend who's a fan of Garth Ennis's comic book "Preacher", and I want to get him a Zippo that says "Fuck Communism" in Bulgarian.

(I don't have any particular beef with Communism, its just something from the book that my friend would like.)

Hah.. you just lost your chance of getting any help around here with that one.. :p Well, maybe not, but you probably should've found a Bulgarian first, and then asked the question.

Anyway, I don't know any Bulgarians where I live now, so I'm no help. However, "Communism" is basically the same word in most European languages, besides spelling variations. So you're probably halfway there.

I can't help you, but I can tell you that you're gonna have trouble if you plan to get someone to engrave that, as Bulgarian uses the cyrillic alphabet.

Same alphabet as Russian, isn't it?

I think some places have CNC engraving devices that duplicate scans of images off paper, maybe that would work.
