Hey guys!
Mythy- More or less, I'm writing again, yup.
ST: Heh... Looks like you're having fun with the Sons'. That little piece of dialgue was amusing.
Well, yes, "bum" is British dialect. Myth, you can correct me if I'm wrong. Welcome, Samuel's father, is British himself, and as Samuel matures, he slowly takes the dialect. The funny thing is, it seems Welcome has become more "Americanized," spending so many years in Massachusetts. He does say, "Mother" instead of "Mum." The only reasoning I've come up with is what at a young age, Samuel heard the term Mum spoken enough before Welcome went off to war. I have no concrete idea. XD It's one of those mysteries that I leave up to the reader to conclude.
Thanks for reading guys, and the feedback.
EDIT:
ST: Forgot to ask, where am I skipping tenses? I can't find them. (I think I'm going blind). XD
Oh yes, I've read Johnny Tremain. I read it two years into working with BFG. It's definately geared to the younger crowd. She ignores the "fun stuff" which I suspect because it's too gory. I like the "fun stuff" though. *hint* hint*
