Hello and welcome to TheKnow Database Round-Up 17! Thanks so much to everyone who has become a member, started watching or submitted to the database since last time.
Requests
First up—TheKnow has received a request!
LongAndyLong states:
Hi everybody - and especially you Croatian speakers out there.
I'm writing a novel where I want to include two sentences in the Croatian language, and I want to know if I have gotten them right.
The first one is supposed to mean "My beloved sister" and I have written "Moja draga sestra". The second one would mean "Please forgive me" and I have written "Oprosti mi".
Is this correct? Thank you in advance for your help!
If you think you can help, please contact the requester directly via note.
And if anyone else is considering making a request for assistance with their writing research, please don’t hesitate. You can make a request at any time—leave a comment on whatever is the current journal or on the group profile, or send us a note. It isn’t necessary to be a member or a watcher to make a request (or to answer someone else's request), but it would be lovely if you joined in!
The Database
Here is the latest submission to the database:
Travel and Home
Puerto Rico: SavageFrog has lived in Puerto Rico since 1999, studied quite a bit about local history and most of her family’s from there, so she can answer quite a few questions about living in Puerto Rico or its history.
If this would be useful for your writing research, please contact the submitter directly by sending her a note. If you want to make a submission to the database yourself, the information is on our profile.
Favourites
If the database or requests system helps you in writing something, we would like to put the finished article in our favourites. So, if you post your piece on dA and would like it to feature in our collection, please send us a link! We’re thinking about featuring the stories in our journals too.
Watching TheKnow
A note for anyone passing by: we understand some people may not want their details permanently on show in the database, but may feel comfortable talking to requesters privately via note. In that case, please consider watching TheKnow so you can keep an eye on the journals and what’s being looked for.
