The same place I got this:

"I can see all the individual fibers, Rin!"

 

In none of the 3 known Fate timelines (Fate, UBW, and HF) does Shirou Emiya become Archer. Hence the Shirou in the CG fucking Rin is not Archer.

In Portuguese:

Numbers 2, 3, 7, 9 and 11(so long as it isn't in itallic) stay the same.

Numbers 5, 4 and 1(obviously) do not hold true (although holidays are still capitalized).

Number 6 is a bit messier. We can use lower case to refer to titles, such as doctor, saint and professor, but capitals also work. Names have to be capital, though.

Number 10 is also different. Even if the book is titled "And Then There Were None", in portuguese it'd become "And then there were none". 

 

There's also a couple more headaches in portuguese:

1- Maths or maths, either would be fine. Sciences or sciences.

2- North, South, East and West cannot be capitalized, however, when you mean it as a certain place instead of general direction(ex: "I moved to the North", as in, north of portugal), it has to be capital.

 

Now, just imagine that all this was implemented in 1990, when I already knew how to write, and that they only actually started to worry about teaching kids to write like this 4 bloody years ago. 

People like me have no idea how this balderdash works...

So "Archer" has different connotations depending on whether or not it has a capital letter?

Is this not unparalleled in the english language? Well, I wouldn't really know, Mr. QC'er.

 

Anyhow, I wrote Archer because that's how other people spelt it. Furthermore, the Portuguese language is a mess right now, only names get Capital letters, every other sodding word has to be lower case now, and since I like Capitals, I welcome every opportunity I get. 

i wanna bet dutch is a bigger mess, but only because it has always been a mess.

To be honest, everyone says their language is a mess because they compare it to English.

There's a reason English became an official language for the world (other than the British Empire spanning 1/4 of the world).

But let me give you a good example of dutch language idiocy. (I need to vent some frustration)

 

A few years back they changed something so words that where previously written with a c are now written with a k and before they where written with a c they where written with a k.

Why do you keep changin thing back and forwards?

 

Just like words that you speak with a T you spell with a D or dt.

And it all depends on the form they are written in.

 

Example the word for to become in dutch is,

word but you can also write it als wordt and that depends entirly on the rest of the sentence behind it.

Is fuwa really that european/asian-dominant? I suppose I'm in the minority then

No, no. The supreme Emperor and Overlord of the site is actually american.

What Ouraibaa meant is that Fuwanovel was having issues for most american users earlier today.
