			No idea if you're watching my Talk or not, so I'll reply here instead. As you mentioned, there's rarely ever any pauses between "too" in spoken English, so I'll remove most, if not all of those in dialogue if there aren't supposed to be any pauses implied. Honestly, I did my own research after reading your reply and... well, there's no strict rule over it really, with all those conflicting opinions around. ([http://thegrammarexchange.infopop.cc/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/340600179/m/5346054843 this page explores its usage a lot more than others, though])

			I'll simply read sentences using it mentally and go with what seems to flow well, using ", too" if I require the emphasis naturally brought about by the pause while reading. --[[User:Tap\|Tap]] ([[User talk:Tap\|talk]]) 04:57, 21 January 2013 (CST)

	"Not that I believe in fortune telling, but hearing it put me in a bad mood, so I changed the channel."		"Not that I believe in fortune telling, but hearing it put me in a bad mood, so I changed the channel."
	I changed it from "puts" to "put" because "puts" makes the phrase mean that hearing fortune telling always puts him in a bad mood. There is no indication in the text that it should be "puts" rather than "put" and considering the context, it's better to assume he's only talking about that one time putting him in a bad mood. If you disagree, please tell me why. --[[User:Dan.\|Dan.]] 17:39, 1 May 2012 (CDT)		I changed it from "puts" to "put" because "puts" makes the phrase mean that hearing fortune telling always puts him in a bad mood.

			== , too ==

			Just wondering, but is there a reason why you're changing sentences with "too" to ", too"?

			Like... "The next time too, and the time after that too; that's definitely what I'll believe."

			to "The next time, too, and the time after that, too; that's definitely what I'll believe."

			I'm pretty sure there isn't any such convention in English... --[[User:Tap\|Tap]] ([[User talk:Tap\|talk]]) 10:23, 19 January 2013 (CST)

	Well, you see, I went to the AS forums and asked which chapter they'd be happy to read, since the V4 is only a collection of shortstories. Since Chapter 4 is going to be animated into an OVA, I thought I could finish it in the following days. If I do 12k per day on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, It'd be finished. Though what I want to do is to get back to the main plot.

	Just a thought (only a thought to consider mind you). SFX don't always translate properly. Pa could mean something different from Smack at times depending on the circumstances. Rather Smack gives the feeling of something mildly or very wet being slammed onto something (books or registers are not in that category). Well I'm just saying...

			Well, the original text was パシーン and the situation was the sound of someone being slapped, so I just followed your "Japanese SFX" page and used the best one for it, which happens to work out somewhat. [[User:Perfect Chaos\|Perfect Chaos]] 20:10, 23 July 2011 (UCT)

			Ahhh that page was mainly for consultation. I even gave a note at the top. But your choice is fine too. Like I said, I'm just giving my opinion for consideration. But Pashin huh? And for slapping? Yeah smack can replace it. The word slap itself can replace it as well. My opinion is that it's better to stick to the japanese romaji for ''pure'' sfx (not exclamations like Oi, etc). But I'm not against your choice either. So it's good. Thanks for the explanation. It really helps. [[User:Zero2001\|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001\|Talk]] - 11:56, 24 July 2011 (UCT)
