I think for their actual interactions we should all try writing regency style tbh

Wait, none of my interactions up to now were like this lol ā¦ Can you check the posts Iāve made and see if their conversations sound historical enough?

I mean, itās not at all close to how people would interact and talk in the regency era if Iām completely honest. That said tho, I donāt think itās written in a way that it would be a problem!

I prefer the non-historical writing style 
trying to process what the words mean while reading takes too long. my last misc post with Corin is probably how Iām going to keep writing from here on out

I feel like it was decent. did you read my last misc post? I feel like it was historical enough without being too much I just wrote how I normally would with a couple of adjustments. I think maintaining their voice in actual speech rather than narrative filler is more important
but read it and let me know if you think itās not enough

I did read it, Iām just a bit torn where the line is what works and what doesnāt. I think your post should be okay tho, and it is a fair point it should still be easily readable for everyone so going too strongly on the Bridgerton speech wonāt really work either

I need to look that upā¦
Yes, exactly, because the way Bridgerton is written is way over top and I donāt like it at all. Some of it sounds forced and really awkward and Iāve been watching this tv show thatās set in the 1700s and 1900s (a bit of time jumping) and all the English characters and French characters from the 1700s donāt sound so forced. The thing I do is use words they would use. Like amiable, disposition, etc etcā¦ And thatās enough by me
Bridgerton talk is not the same as Regency talk, at least from what I can tell

How so?
Idk ā¦ Just something about it seems so different ā¦ Maybe itās the accents?

I think it seems forced bc itās not like usual terms and phrases theyād use. I def noticed when I watched too that some lines just came across cringe bc it seemed like they didnāt know how to say it
