What is old world English?
What is proper English?
Interesting debate, if I do say so myself.
What is proper English? Who decided what was proper dialect and what is improper?
Each region of the world has its own dialect, its own meaning to words that in the English translation is a different interpretation all together.
Debate: There are many different versions of what is considered "English".
Rationality: Depending on where you are in the world a word could be interpreted differently.
Translation vs. Intention:
When using old world diction, writing in plain English for North American books, conforming to proper English is challenging yet rewarding.
This is a subject that writers encounter daily. Unfortunately if you are writing for North American markets, a writer must conform and choose different proper diction.
Sincerely,

Those that walk among us.
Those that have the ability to stand alone while in a crowd.
Interesting people who walk in a crowd that stand out from the rest and yet have no recognition for such abilities.
Have you ever stood on the outside of a crowded area and watched the people walk by?
If you have never had the pleasure of doing such a feat, my suggestion would be to try it.
It is so easy to walk past someone and ignore their ability to stand among us with individuality.
Passiveness or ignorance to the beliefs of others or their understanding of what is normal.
I met someone the other night, to whom caught my attention merely because they were walking in a crowd but yet their walk was much different from the rest and yet the reality was because they stood out from the crowd, they were more interesting to me then the multitude that walked in the same crowd.
Confused?
No matter who you are, where you come from, let no one make you conform to their beliefs or the ideology of what is normal for them.
What is normal for one will never be normal for another.
Individuality is what it is truly about.
To all of you who walk in your own accord, I applaud you.
