I need a little help from the Brits
Jan. 19th, 2005 12:43 pmI'm writing a fanfic set in England (of course), and it's time once again to throw myself on the mercy of my British friends and ask a series of "Please help me sound less like a stupid American" questions.
O-levels and A-levels, which one is which?
One of my characters is a solicitor. Would it be appropriate to refer to his business as a "law firm," a "law practice," or ___________ ?
He went to school in the 1940's. Would I say that during this time "he went to law school," "studied for the law,", or is there another phrase that would be better?
Thank you!
