#WritersCoffeeClub 1/12: Do characters use words not in the language you write in? Italics for this, or not?
I have a story in progress centered around a trilingual family. They interchangeably use English, French, and Gaelic, often in the same sentence. The story's mostly in English. I use italics for single non-English words. Non-english sentences are never italicized.
