    well, it's kinda weird to say it in Hebrew, and most of us just say "Pen spinning".... but if you really want:
    סיבוב עטים- Hebrew.
    (oh, and btw, you're supposed to pronounce it "Sivuv Etim", in case someone wanted to know.)

    I guess there might be other ways to say it, but w/e...

    Korean
    펜돌리기 = pen dol ri gi

    Although I have heard "pen dol ri geo"... Not sure what that means exactly.

    only translation i've seen is "žongliranje olovke/olovkom", but that would be pen juggling dry.gif
    pen spinning would roughly be translated to "okretanje olovke" i guess dunno.gif
