"SECOND STRINGERS" Reviews/Comments [ 2 ] | Reviewed By: Someone who speaks German... On: January 16, 2009 07:03 CST Comment/Review: As someone who is Austrian and therefore has German as her native tongue, I have to give you an advice: Don't use German in your fics, unless you happen to speak it or have someone who does speak it who tells you that it is right.´ For example: Yes, 'Honig' means honey. But it is not used that way. Calling someone 'Honig' is about as weird as, in English, calling someone 'jelly'. And 'Puppe' means doll, 'Puppen' is the plural of 'Puppe'. However, calling someone 'Babe' or 'Baby' is quite common in German. I suggest you, to appear more professional, just write that they speak whatever language they are speaking. Same about the Japanese, even though I am no judge of whether you used it correctly or not, it disturbs the flow.
