As I've noticed, there are a couple words around here that are used wrongly, and this will be a helpful little guide for what to use, and what not to use when it comes to describing some things, and clarifying some other grammar issues.
Female Wolf
Good words to use: She-wolf, Female, Bitch (meaning the literal term "female-dog"), Matron (Older female)
Rogue and Rouge
This is a common misconception. Rouge is in french known as Red. When referring to characters that are not within packs, they should be called Rogues, as the meaning of Rogues is a dishonest or unprincipled (In this case unprincipled) being.
Common Mistakes in Grammar
There are a lot of common mistakes made within grammar, from simple ones, to less simple ones, I'd like to point them out, to give people some ability to correctly write.
There, They're, Their
This one yes, is probably pounded into your head millions of times, but there is a difference.
There Is meaning in, at or of a place or position.
Correct Use: Look over there! We should go over there and check it out.
Incorrect use: There ball is rolling through the street.
They're is a contraction of They Are, which mainly means They (subject) is performing an action of some sort.
Correct Use: They're playing with the ball.
Incorrect Use: They're ball was flattened by a car.
Their It is a possessive word, meaning something belongs to the person being addressed.
Correct Use: Their ball rolled into the street and was flattened like a pancake.
Incorrect Use: we were their in tokyo.
