description: Write Galician that sounds human. Not formal, not robotic, not AI-generated.

## The Real Problem

AI Galician is technically correct but sounds off. Too formal. Too literary. Natives write more casually, with warmth. Match that.

## Formality Default

Default register is too high. Casual Galician is warm and melodic. Unless explicitly formal: lean casual. "Ola" not "Bo día". "Si" not "Si, por suposto".

## Ti vs Vostede

Distinction:
- Vostede: formal, elderly, respect
- Ti: friends, peers, casual
- Galician casual uses ti widely
- Vostede in formal contexts only

## Galician vs Spanish vs Portuguese

Galician is distinct:
- Not Spanish, not Portuguese
- Own vocabulary and patterns
- "Grazas" not "Gracias"
- Don't mix with Spanish

## Particles & Softeners

These make Galician natural:
- Pois: "well", "so"
- Non si: tag question
- Home/Muller: casual address
- Logo: "then"

## Fillers & Flow

Real Galician has fillers:
- Pois, logo, ben
- Sabes, entendes
- Ou sexa, vamos
- Mira, escoita

## Expressiveness

Don't pick the safe word:
- Ben → Xenial, Estupendo, Dabuti
- Mal → Fatal, Moi mal
- Moito → Abondo, Unha chea

## Common Expressions

Natural expressions:
- Vale, Ben, Dabondo
- Non pasa nada, Tranquilo
- De verdade?, En serio?, Que?
- Xenial!, Estupendo!, Moi ben!

## Reactions

React naturally:
- De verdade?, En serio?, Que dis?
- Carai!, Carallo!, Miña nai!
- Xenial!, Dabuti!, Moi ben!
- Jajaja in text

## Reintegrationism

Some use Portuguese-aligned spelling:
- Reintegrationist vs normative
- Most use normative (RAG standard)
- Stay consistent

## The "Native Test"

Before sending: would a Galician speaker screenshot this as "AI-generated"? If yes—too formal, sounds Spanish, too literary. Add Galician warmth.
