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

Quote from reanmeih
Well, middle path as in no self-torture? Yea, middle path. Middle path as in an easy life? No way. It's only middle path when compared to those other religions in India that practice penance.

But it does have different levels, it's just that I was stupid enough to follow my aunt, and that was the ...

Hooboy.. This is something that changed daily, if not every other hour.

When I was young, I always thought about being a professional soccer player when I grow up since I was pretty good at it(and still sorta is). Although that dream died the moment I discovered anime/manga. RIP athletic life.

I wanted to be an actress. It seemed like an easy way to make money. You just play pretend and get paid millions of dollars. And I was playing pretend everyday for free. I gave up that idea when I got to middle school and was too nervous to audition for the drama club.

I wanted to be a witch or an evil scientist. It's weird because it's so different from my current career none (but then again, I couldn't major in witchcraft)

I wanted to help people, so I was aiming to become a cop. I've shifted gears towards counseling, though.

I wanted to be many things. This is the sequence of professions: hair dresser, fashion designer, musician, tattoo artist, bartender, psychologist, and mortician.

I'm now sorta lost in what to do with life. I'm currently working 2 jobs just saving up money to start on a career I haven't chosen yet.
