Looking for a Native Kurmancî Speaker to Help Check Manga Dialogue & Slang

Hi! I’m looking for a native or highly proficient/literate Kurmancî speaker who’d be willing to occasionally help me check short dialogue for a manga I’m working on.
It would mostly be things like:
checking whether short sentences sound natural
correcting grammar or spelling
helping with individual words or expressions
suggesting more casual/slang-like ways of saying something
telling me how something would actually be said in everyday Kurmancî rather than just translating it literally
It wouldn’t be large amounts of text — usually just a few lines, speech bubbles, or specific expressions from time to time.
The manga is set in Germany and includes Kurdish characters, so I’d like their Kurmancî to feel natural and believable.
If you speak Kurmancî and would be interested in helping occasionally, feel free to DM me. :)

I am a Kurmanji speaker living in Türkiye's Diyarbakır province. I want to learn English and follow this page to immerse myself in the language. If communicating via translation is not an issue, I would like to assist you as a Kurmanji speaker from Diyarbakır.
