Writers should use cultural idioms when they write.
My apologies to William Shakespeare.
I stole a quote from his famous play Hamlet and tweaked it in my headline.
Would someone unfamiliar with his play understand the quote?
Would people unfamiliar with the colloquialisms of each other’s culture understand their blog posts?
Should you use idioms because as a strong writer you should have a “voice,” or should you veer away from them out of fear your readers won’t understand the expressions native to your country?

Hi,
You are becoming the biggest supporter of my writing!
Thank you so very much for the reblog. Based on the comments, it had great internet. It almost became a debate. Maybe your readers can participate too. Thank you again. I’m taking a publishing break while I’m on vacation. I’ll be publishing this Saturday & then not again until July 25. Have a good month
