Harry Potter question for my f-list...

Okay, question...

How many of you fic readers and writers prefer the phonetic-speak for Fleur and Viktor in canon?

Example: "Eet eez no use. I cannot dress in zeez robes." ... "Vat vould you ask of me, Herm-own-ninny?" Etc.

How many of you just wish they were shown speaking like all the other characters, leaving the accents up to the readers' imaginations?

*is really curious*

That's an excellent point: too much is overload, and ceases to have meaning. I think italics could have been good there instead in some instances...

I don't really remember if Draco spoke in capslock. I will need to go re-read it. ^_^
