Oh, gods of Olympus, help me...
I've decided to translate a Polish badfic from Harry Potter continuum... and I already regret it. I will not post the entire thing, until I get my Permission (I don't want others to call dibs), but I'll give you guys a small passage:
_________________________________________________
"Blimey, how I don't want to go back to school," said Ron.
"Everything's better than the Dursley, even if you have to study," replied Harry.
"If it helps," Hermione interrupted her reading of Modern Hogwarts: A History, updated with the Philosopher’s Stone and the Chamber of Secrets events, "you still have three days of summer vacation."
"Oh, yes, sure, just great. Comparing to the two months, three days are nothing," scoffed Ron.
"What are you guys arguing about, you won't make summer longer," Harry was done with their friends' arguing.

Yeah... Well, my agents will enter the PPC with a blast :D Or, so I hope. -

I'd be interested in hearing your thoughts/tips on trying to translate misspelled/ungrammatical writing from one language to another, as I know it can be done well but am unsure how to go about doing it.

You can claim badfic even though you don't have Permission. You just need to note so in the page.
