English is not my native language either but I still agree with all the above comments. I've played loads of VNs with poorly-translated English or AI-translated English, but this one is on a whole different level, it's just super bad, more than half of the sentences make zero sense. I understand that the dev can't speak/write English but it's no excuse at this point, run your damn original text through an online translator such as DeepL and you'll get a much better result, and for FREE.
I am also not a native English speaker, English is my third language, but I can't say that I'm bad at it either. My thought is that they use some sort of AI dialogue generator or something like that since the 0.6.1 update, because everything fucked up after that update. In 0.6.0 the language was alright, they're consistent until the end, and after the 0.6.1 update, suddenly everyone's turning into people that lives in the ghetto. Very noticeable after that mailbox scene where MC was talking with the neighbour, especially Monica's boutique and pool scene, those language choices are unbearable. I can't imagine someone like Monica and a timid MC suddenly talked like hood ratchet.

Russian "Пошив не идеален, не подчеркивает твою индивидуальность."
DeepL: ‘The tailoring isn't perfect, it doesn't emphasize your personality.’
Game: "Cut’s off—misses your edge."

Is the dialogue/translator guy being paid by the word? That would explain why all the "sentences" are like 1 to 3 words long?
I think it sounds like that in 0.6.0, after 0.6.1 they're trying to be edgy with their words, and turned into a hood ratchet instead. SMH
Why they don't just use DeepL and just keep it that way.
