FOREIGN LANGUAGES CLAIM
LAST UPDATED: 28 July 2019
Sometimes, our characters speak more than just English, don't they? Of course they do. I thought it would be fun to have a page where we keep track of what they speak. Maybe it's a little bit extra of me, but why not, guys? Why not?
So just post below and tell us what languages they speak. When it comes to normal foreign languages and not magical ones, I am not going to list every language known to man! If I do that, this page will be eons long and look super ugly! I will be adding languages as people claim them! It's the best way of making sure that this page doesn't have a bunch of empty spaces!
I should note: this is also a good way to make sure that we are keeping things realistic. Not to be a fun sucker, but if every single one of your character speaks six languages fluently, then I think we have a bit of a problem, don't we? so keep it realistic! If it gets ridiculous, I will PM the member in question and tell them if I think they have too many characters fluent in too many languages, or too many languages for someone that is too young. I'm not saying we're going to be super controlling over it. You guys know better than we do what languages your character is fluent in. But on a rare occasion where we think it might be a little excessive, we will bring it to your attention!
You can claim if your character is a beginner, intermediate, or expert in a language. You can post here if they are moving up in a language as well, after enough time has gone by and your character has thought enough about them practicing. That is similar to how we approve levels going up in magical abilities! To progress to the next level: at least three months need to pass between progression, you most post about your character either practicing or using them, in at least six different threads, and administration must approve. If Admin denies, they will provide reasoning and how your character can progress to the next level.
We are only putting someone down for English if it is not their first language! So don't be alarmed if your person is not listed there!
Note that we still will only be accepting one Parselmouth on site at a time! No exceptions!
