			==== Awhile v. A while ====
			When “awhile” is spelled as a single word, it is an adverb meaning “for a time”

			“stay awhile”

			but when “while” is the object of a prepositional phrase, like

			Lend me your monkey wrench for a while

			the “while” must be separated from the “a.” But if the preposition “for” were lacking in this sentence, “awhile” could be used in this way:

			Lend me your monkey wrench awhile.

			Lay is a transitive verb, it has to be used with a direct object. ''Laid'' is both the past tense and the past participle of lay.

			Just lay the $#!%& next to him.
			I just laid two $#!%& next to him.
			Have you already laid the $#!%& next to him?

			Lie is an intransitive verb, guess that's opposite of transitive so no object? Odd enough, the past tense of lie is ''lay'' and the past participle is ''lain''.

			I just want to lie next to my $#!%&.
			Did I just lay down next to that big $#!%&.
			It has lain down with us. Wait! That $#!%& moves on its own!?

			Please read the [http://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/index.php?title=Format_guideline general guidelines] before attempting to translate, edit, etc. Things start to look more uniform with a structure.

			Also few free to discuss minor issue(or major) with the translator. Sometimes translators have there own style of doing things... such as the curve

			Okay I admit I'm actually lazy myself, I generally edit grammar and spelling. First a quick run-through and if I have time I come back for sentence structures.

			Mostly I ignore American/British English issues as long as the usage is correct; I'm sorry I actually hope you guys will correct those.

			I also don't touch certain punctuations, i.e. "Is that so." obviously that was a question but still it could be used as a statement.

			Names like Shidou or Kotori should always be capitalize unless stated otherwise by the translater, i.e. whenever Tohka from Date A Live refers to Shidou, as shidou... the translater states it's to express the way she calls him is different from the others.

			Broken words or names should be fix unless it fits the context... for example someone suddenly getting their head lopped off while talking... or seeing the name "rika" even though her name is "Erika" but she snaps back while someone calls her... If it fits the context its good, please don't try to fix those without asking the translator if it was intentional
