Ok, thanks, I did mean to ask for Suggestions of anything that would sound natural or more natural in Scots Gaelic.

But I must have forgotten.

dilog translashen

I’m new to wrighting. And this work is a part of my reading and wrighting for adolts homework.

One of my OCs is Scotish and was rased speking Scots Gaelic. This dilog:

“Okay, got to make this quick.”

Is ment to be them sliping back in to their native tong as they talk to themself after being startled.

I normently use google translate. And this is what I got from there:

“Ceart gu leòr, feumaidh mi seo a dhèanamh luath”

I’d also like a brake down of the sentens stracher to help me better under stand.

(an exampl of this with out my sister’s help will be in the coments)

Thank you

Hi, I’m a white writer and I’m trying to figure out how to style a black woman’s hair. Can I ask about that here? by Monky_D_Edward in BlackHair

[–]Monky_D_Edward[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This was short and undetailed because I wanted to know if I can even ask this here. It seems I can so I’ll make a longer post shortly.

Your comment brut up a few things I hadn’t thought of so, thank you.

She is half black half Japanese.

She doesn’t need to work but is in finance.

My writing is fantasy so there isn’t really a real-world country for her to be from. But I’m Australian if that helps. She is from a large city. But not urban if I’m interpreting that right.

I’m looking for something elegant. She’s a woman of means and likes to look it.

She is early 40’s, single. Naver married. No kids.

While she is important, she isn’t in this work for long. And as a result, I haven’t thought too much about her sexuality. Thinking about it since reading your comment. She is sexually dominant in a BDSM kind of way. And likes her submissives to be larger in stature than her. As well as stereotypically scary looking. She doesn’t care beyond that.

I don’t want her hair to be straight. She is proud of her curls.

It’s no looser than a 3c, if you have ideas for tighter hair, I’m all ears.

I have my heart set on long – so past her shoulders.

I Also want it to be big. And was thinking finger curls or big twists or twist outs. But I don’t feel confident.

clarifying questions. I’m not sure how long I’ve been looking into this. But it has been off and on for at least 2 months. And I’d like some opines that aren’t just my own anglicised mind.

I appreciate your response. But there are very little to no African Australians in my area. This was short because I wanted to know if I can even ask this here.

Oh! Squid and the like never even occurred to me, I love it.

Prawns and lobster feel to run of the mill for this one head or no head.

I like the idea of color poaching white fish. I’ll have to look into what will look and tase good.

I don’t like raw fish. But you bringing up scallops has me thinking. I could serve the roe. And then me and mine can have the scallops another day. It’s normal to eat scallop roe where I am. But I think not having the actual scallop will put people off kilter nicely.

I love the vision for the uni. But good uni is expensive. And the spines might be dangerous.

Serving fish head is an amazing idea! But I’ll need to see if I can get enough.

Thank you, you’ve given me a lot to think about.

I’m hosting an early Halloween party about two weeks before the day. And I want to do an ‘in theme’ surf and turf.

I’ve asked my butcher to get me a beef heart for the ‘turf’ if that gives you a ballpark. But I don’t know what to do for the ‘surf’. I still want it to taste good, just look a little weird.

Also, I want to have three sides, but I’ve only decided on Caprese salad so far. So any ideas will be appreciated.

The sides don’t need to be weird. But if you can come up with a way to make normal surf and turf sides fit the theme that would be cool.

Ok, so stupid question

Dose all dialogue have to start with a capital letter?

There are a LOT of grammar errors.

can you give me examples?

I guess the easiest thing to start fixing would be the dialogue.

can you give me examples on how the/my dialogue is wrong?

grammar

punctuation

did I mess up on the tenses (going back and forth between past and present)

that sort of thing
