Let's suppose you can only write in English, and characters speak 2 different languages. How do you put it into writing. Consider 3 different situations: Person A speaks in language B, Person B responds in language B and then talks to Person C in language A. Person A speaks in language B, Person B responds in language A so that Person A and Person C can understand. Person A speaks in language A to Person C and then speaks in language B to person B. You can add more situations, but let's assume you can only use English. How would you do it?
