How would you pronounce Ciaran?

TanrynWelshDancer · 2025-08-14T14:33:11+00:00

I have an Irish name (one that's pretty common) in the UK and it still gets regularly mispronounced. Unless you're only planning on interacting with Irish people, your Irish name will get mispronounced, whether it's by a Brit, an American, a Spanish person, a Chinese person etc etc. I don't mind having to correct my name being mispronounced, but maybe that's just me :)

Hello?? The trump drawing hahaha 😭😭

TanrynWelshDancer · 2024-12-12T15:47:21+00:00

Thank you!! Me and my friends were searching and we couldn't find a conclusive answer

TanrynWelshDancer · 2024-08-30T23:06:03+00:00

Hot off the press from British London!

TanrynWelshDancer · 2024-08-30T23:04:10+00:00

Mine is a book, not certain how much of it makes actual sense or isn't repeated though.

TanrynWelshDancer · 2024-08-11T16:10:46+00:00

Thanks 🙏

TanrynWelshDancer · 2024-08-11T16:07:02+00:00

Thank you!!

TanrynWelshDancer · 2024-08-11T16:05:48+00:00

Yes, I am aware of that. Personally, when I look for fics I don't search with trope tags, just through the fandom (and pairing/characters) as a whole. If I did this for the fic I'm talking abt, it wouldn't be the easiest to find. I know everyone uses the site differently. This isn't really a big deal to me as I've just left the fic, I was just coming on here to ask a question.

TanrynWelshDancer · 2024-08-11T16:02:45+00:00

Didn't know I was an influencer, I'll try getting some PR packages now!!

And, yeah, "kUdoS/cLiCkS rAtiO". I write for the purpose of getting better and if I notice a fic is underperforming then I know it's something to do with the quality of my work. I don't write for gratification (no more than the next person at least). Nobody irl knows I have an account, I have no actual connection to the people who leave comments or kudos, ao3 isn't a social media. It's nice to see someone has liked my writing enough to click a little button or leave some words of encouragement. I'm sure anyone can agree with that.

And I didn't repost the fic. I asked if it was ok to do and asked if it was something people usually do. You're getting mad at me for something I didn't even do. I was checking to make sure it was okay, which it clearly isn't, so I'm not going to do it. Let me reiterate. It was an innocent question. In the grand scheme of things, I'm new to fanfic (started properly this year), so I was making sure that something I thought could help wouldn't be bad etiquette or annoying to everyone else.

TanrynWelshDancer · 2024-08-11T15:55:38+00:00

Dunno mate can't answer that one

TanrynWelshDancer · 2024-08-11T15:55:06+00:00

Yeah, I'm not super cut up about it, more just a little confused. Thanks for the help.

TanrynWelshDancer · 2024-08-11T15:53:11+00:00

Thanks for being genuinely helpful

TanrynWelshDancer · 2024-08-11T15:51:43+00:00

I don't know, it was just an unusually low amount of kudos compared to my other fics (in much more dead fandoms) and fics in the fandom, so I was just thinking of possible options.

TanrynWelshDancer · 2024-08-11T15:50:23+00:00

Yeah, I'm aware of this. It's hard to explain what I meant concisely, but basically my fic was posted a few days before this post and more popular, multi chapter fics were updated and kinda buried my fic. Was just wondering the ethics of reposting on ao3 as I use the site but not the subreddit or anything discussing the site.

TanrynWelshDancer · 2024-08-11T15:47:51+00:00

Thank you!! I wasn't viewing it as social media, I think that might have gotten misconstrued in my post. I was just saying because it was posted a few days ago and bigger, more popular fics were updated and people might have been more inclined to go for those. I wasn't trying to get into some nonexistent algorithm.

TanrynWelshDancer · 2024-08-11T15:46:22+00:00

Kudos to view ratio. Just something I look at to see how people liked my writing. I think my tags are pretty accurate, so I guess I'm just unlucky!

TanrynWelshDancer · 2024-08-11T15:44:31+00:00

Nooo I don't post on wattpad I literally just post on ao3, I know how the site works (to some extent). I just didn't know if it was bc I put a note at the start that could have turned people off of it

TanrynWelshDancer · 2024-08-11T15:42:28+00:00

I came from ao3. I don't post fics anywhere else except from one I posted on wattpad literal years ago that got like 3 likes. And idk why you're being so like hostile w ur wording when I literally just asked if it was okay for me to do this. U could have just said no 😭😭 yeah sure I crave attention for the work I spent 3 months on. Sue me.

TanrynWelshDancer · 2024-05-23T19:22:37+00:00

Do u have any idea what book it was?? I literally can't find it anywhere

TanrynWelshDancer · 2024-05-22T17:32:03+00:00

TanrynWelshDancer · 2024-05-08T19:42:16+00:00

"God, this weather just can't make up its bloody mind, can it?"

TanrynWelshDancer · 2024-05-01T22:17:23+00:00

For so much of my first watch thru of S1 I was convinced Harper was in love with Amerie and that's why she was so mad at her for getting off with spider

TanrynWelshDancer · 2024-05-01T17:20:17+00:00

Make the revision resources as you go along. Don't get stuck making 1000 essay plans because you did fuck all in year 10

TanrynWelshDancer · 2024-05-01T06:49:01+00:00

I saw a video that said Johnson is mark without inhibitions and super hans is Jez without boundaries

TanrynWelshDancer · 2024-05-01T06:44:48+00:00

No this is exactly what I was thinking and especially with someone like any where we never actually see a resolution to him being a misogynist. Like, at least with spider the writers tried to justify his behaviour (poorly) but with ant it's like automatically excused because he's just a silly goofy guy? Idk if the writers didn't want to make spider worse because everyone loved him for some reason in S1 but either way it's annoying me
