valarltdWhen does it become fangirl Japanese/Italian/French, etc?
I'm piddling with a story, and the main character is being taught Japanese by full immersion. So far I have used two basic phrases (thank you and hello) and the rest is just treated as translated.
I did the same when he was being taught Italian in the first book. (A greeting followed by "my name is").
Also, I have another character who, when he wishes to appear superior, speaks French, exclusively. I do not type out the French, I just use the like "In French, he said:" And the characters who don't understand it just stare at him.
