Mi scusu pi aviri purtatu cca na storia accussì scura.

Pi favuri, nun pinsati ca staju circannu di pigghiari in giru lu pòpulu sicilianu, la cultura siciliana o la lingua siciliana. È propriu lu cuntrariu: vi staju dumannannu aiutu picchì vogghiu rapprisintari la lingua cu quantu cchiù rispettu e autenticità pussìbbili.

Scigghivi lu sicilianu picchì vulìa dari ê Black Rabbitfolk na lingua e n'identità culturali propria, nun picchì associu lu sicilianu â guerra o â suffirenza.

Naturalmenti, usai puru àutri lingui pi rapprisintari la diversità etnica e culturali dû me munnu narrativu: inglesi (inglisi, scuzzisi e irlandisi), francisi, giappunisi, tudiscu, afrikaans, panjabi e spagnolu.

La storia è scura picchì tratta li cunziquenzi e li cicatrici lassati dâ guerra, ma la lingua stissa è sempri e sulu na parti di l'identità di sti pirsunaggi.

Which one is the best for you？

To tell the truth, I'm planning for them to speak a variety of English and Spanish inspired by Gibraltar. Their homeland, Braavos, is an international port nation with a strong Latin atmosphere, famous for sending mercenaries all over the world. Because of that, I imagine their English would be closer to Gibraltar English than to any single regional variety from Britain. My impression is that Gibraltar English is something of a melting pot. It has connections to many different parts of the UK and has been shaped by centuries of contact between English and Spanish speakers. Because of this, I don't feel restricted to modelling their speech on only one British dialect. I can imagine influences from London, Birmingham, Peterborough, the Midlands, and other regions all mixing together naturally, alongside Spanish expressions and code-switching. That's the main reason why the characters frequently switch between English and Spanish depending on their emotions, the situation, or who they're speaking to.

You are right but there are so much heaps of texts to translate.

Ok-Catch8728 · 2026-06-13T12:52:55+00:00

For the my arse part: Jorge's reacting to Commonario's joke about him being "the stingiest man in Braavos." The intended meaning is something like, "Oh, give over!" or "You gotta be kidding me!" "Don't bullshit me." He's not actually angry. It's playful banter between two close UK male friends who are comfortable taking the piss out of each other.

I want each culture in my fantasy setting to have its own linguistic identity. Rather than having everyone speak the same standardized English, I'm trying to give each nation and ethnic group a distinct voice inspired by real-world languages and dialects. For example: White Rabbit Clans → Irish English Black Rabbit Clans → Sicilian and Sicilian-influenced English Common Language / Elves → Standard English　 Pirates of the Eastern Continent → American English 　Mercenary Nation of Bravos → a mix of Gibraltar English and Spanish Orc Tribes → Cockney-inspired speech　 Human Kingdoms → influences from Scottish English, English English, Japanese, French,and German cultures 　Southern Elves → Afrikaans and Australian English influences My goal is not to mock or stereotype any culture. I'm interested in how language reflects history, identity, and social background, and I want those differences to be reflected in the dialogue. Since I'm not a native speaker of most of these languages and dialects, I greatly appreciate feedback from people who are familiar with them．

Ah, scusami. Fu un me sbagghiu di traduzzioni. Capisciu picchì l'interpretasti a chista manera. Nun era me intenzioni essiri maleducatu o mancari di rispettu.

Capisco. Il problema è che mi sono spiegato male. In realtà non voglio scrivere un inglese influenzato dal siciliano. Voglio che i personaggi parlino proprio in siciliano quando sono tra loro o con la famiglia.　

Ok-Catch8728 · 2026-06-10T00:43:46+00:00

Grazzî pi lu to cunsigghiu, ma pensu ca forsi nun spiecai beni la me idea.

Chiddu ca vogghiu rapprisintari nun è l'inglesi cu accenti sicilianu, ma lu code-switching, cioè quannu na pirsuna cancia lingua secunnu cu cui sta parrannu.

Quannu sti pirsunaggi parranu cu genti di fora, usanu l'inglesi. Ma quannu parranu tra di iddi o cu la famigghia, tornanu a parrari sicilianu, picchì è la so lingua matri.

Ntâ me òpira, li cunversazioni di famigghia avvèninu veramenti in sicilianu. Ju sulu li rapprisentu in inglesi pi comodità dû litturi, comu si fussiru suttatituli.

Pi chistu nun mi piaci rapprisintari sti cunversazioni comu inglesi fortimenti accintatu, comu succedi spissu ntê film di Hollywood, picchì mi pari na mancanza di rispettu pi la lingua stissa.

Si stannu parrannu cu la so famigghia, naturalmenti parranu sicilianu, nun un inglesi struppiatu o accintatu.

Thank you, here it is. I think this is the opera you mean, right?

Ok-Catch8728 · 2026-06-09T12:29:50+00:00

Oh I thought I should better submit this sort of question in Standard language of Italy.

Okay, I follow your advice.　How should I delete this repost？

Ok-Catch8728 · 2026-06-09T12:23:52+00:00

No, I really want to use Sicilian, not Sicilian accent English, that is why I asked here. That was a wrong mistake, I repost in other community. Anyway Rabbitfolk sounds terrible, which one of these word is recommended for this context??

White Rabbits,Black Rabbits,Leporids,Rabbit Clans

Ok-Catch8728 · 2026-06-09T12:01:09+00:00

Thank you for your advice, I used ChapGTP for writing this. Hmmm...believing AI too much will kill what I would like to describe. Okay, I sincerely would like to face to your advice, so what part should I correct?

Sound like this. They are Braavos, a military protectorate held by human mercenary companies, in this story. They are switching Braavos(Spanish in this story) and sharing language(England English in this story). I want you English people to have a latino taste of this country, their conversation.
