What is the best way to translate a dialect or accent of the original language that is not the norm (e.g., Kansai-ben)?
Different country's English accent (e.g., Irish or Australian)
Different American regional accent (e.g., Southern)
Have the character use different slang (e.g., 'pops' instead of 'dad')
Minor speech pattern differences (e.g., dropping the 'g' in '-ing' words)
No difference in translation but have a translation note
I don't care

I've never been to such places, I'm curious to see how many of you have ever been to that Place.

What are your exprience going there? and more IMPORTANTLY, What did you DO??

You mean, like passed down the street or actually making use of the services there? Apparantly there is one in the city (I live in the city), but never been there. I see no reason to change that any time soon.

Yea.Anything! It doesn't have to be using the 'services' there. It can be liek, looking around..working there... or maybe stumbling across that place b4. (which is why I put "Maybe" option in the poll)

Who knoes!! laugh
Which is why I'm curious!
"working" there doesn't have to be THAT kind of job, a red light district can be a huge part of a city where they offer other things as well. Like London!! I SoooOOo want to visit Soho someday.. ;_____; If only I have the money..*sigh*

It depends on the country... where I was working, they were all mostly nice, some were highly educated and did it for fun or extra income... they were all nice and well-behaved.... don't go stereotyping, they're mostly like you and I, just with a different profession....I still keep in touch with some of them to this day through e-mails and the phone.

It varies from place to place, though.... it's "thrashier" in the less developed countries, for sure... where some women are obviously forced into the trade.

...and before your mind starts drifting, the answer is NO... I've never engaged in their services..... I value my good health.

not really, not because I am shy or any thing, it is just I am not interested. *shrugs* of curse some times I have passed by prostitutes in street while they were trying to snatch customers away! laugh but I never have stopped to start a conversation or any thing. I believe reading Yaoi in my room while I am sipping tea and eating cookies is more delightful so I don't think I ever go to such places to buy cheap sex. cool

I was taking a touring drive with my dad in Singapore a few years back. We drove into this area with a lot of neon lights and huge porn movie posters (I think) and he says "This is the red light district". That's how I learned what the term meant xD
