The convention here is, that when you speak "in character", you use some colour, and when you're speaking as yourself, you don't. So it was Lisabeth.
(More litt.: this is our way in this loction: when one speaks like another person, one uses some colour, and when one speaks like oneself, one doesn't do this. So he/she was Lisabeth.)
more, is Lisabeth a girl that loves girls?

Also, Maria-chan has a twin sister who looks exactly like her and is also a buddhist nun, except for that her twin sister has a short hair.

Is it really necessary to include these Japanese name suffixes in the translation? I’ve noticed that most manga translators seem to think that, too; I beg to differ. What’s the point in that?

I find it ridiculous watching American movies dubbed into German and people refer to their parents as "Mahm" and "Dett", and for some reason Mr and Mrs don't get translated either. Mom, Dad, Mrs Jones von nebenan ist gestorben.

Elisabeth's background, as provided by Jal:
jal wrote: Some background here: Elisabeth is from an upper class Sajiwan family, who is thoroughly spoiled (her parents are in real estate, and no doubt involved in money laundering and/or drugs trade), and has little patience for "sloma" (anyone not wealthy). Just to show she is sofisticated, she throws English words and phrases through her speech, as is typical for her cast. I thought that after lower middle class Jego, it'd be nice to introduce a different type of Sajiwan.

That depends on what you mean by "love". Do I like women? Certainly, I hang out with them all the time. Do I love women? Well, I love my other and sister, and my bff Alice. But I don't love them like I love boys. I'm not gay, if that's what you mean. And I also don't think I'm bisexual. I made out* once with my friend Meri, who is gay, and it was nice and all, but I still think I'm straight.

*"sesop" refers to sex, but can mean anything from french kissing and touching through clothes to sexual intercourse.

well I 1S-plan before attempt-PRT work_on-PRT some leewefraaka here but here-3S.be appear-PRT this-3S.be really the roleplay-PRT sex channel
Well, I was going to try working on some Leewefraaka here, but it seems this is actually the roleplaying sex channel

(For current american accent, push those /o/ toward /u/, the /EI/ toward /aI/, the /@\/ toward /e/, and in extreme cases the final /k/ toward [x])

(I'm not actually sure that this language should have the word 'roleplay' with exactly this sense, but I'm way too lazy to try working that out right now).

as though her heart was brook: Why, why, why! Weh, O weh
I'se so silly to be flowing but I no canna stay!

Could you please use IPA? X-SAMPA may be easier to type, but IPA is far easier to read. I for one have to look up most of the characters you use there. Here’s a conversion tool to make it easier for you.
My version of the SCA²

About my conlangs: No. 1 is my proto-language, and No. 4, my main conlang, is one of its descendants. I’m currently revising 4, calling it 4a.
