English term or phrase: exotic
Dear Friends,
I am translating some text for a website and looking for a lucid equivalent for the english word 'exotic'. The equivalents like 'Mohak', 'Aakarshak' and 'Videshaj' do not serve the purpose. Any help from the esteemed members would be deeply appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Here is a piece of the text-
"For more "exotic" and difficult languages (such as Bengali, Cambodian, Zulu, etc.), we have partnerships with local translation companies."

Exotic has many meanings but I think that here it means strikingly strange or unusual

For more "exotic" and difficult languages (such as Bengali, Cambodian, Zulu, etc.), we have partnerships with local translation companies."

और अधिक विरली,अद्भुत, अनूठी, विलक्षण और कठिन भाषाओं (जैसे बंगाली, कम्बोडियाई, ज़ुलु, आदि) के लिए हमारी स्थानीय अनुवाद कम्पनियों के साथ भागीदारी है।
