So I've promised a friend of mine that I would write up a story she particularly liked. The premise of this story was a young germanic princess captured and taken back to rome and abused during the general's triumph (where he enters rome in a victory celebration).
Now I want to make sure I have the vocabulary correct. I can find the names for the weapons, armor and units on the web. However, I can't find anything which tells me what the pieces of the uniform are called. In particular I want to know what the little skirt thing is called. Also whether and what kind of underwear was worn underneath the uniforms would be helpfull.
In a related question I have some problems with my stories needing proofreading. People seem to like the topics and the writing but some people are bothered by minor spelling and grammar errors. What is the chance I could find someone to help my check the spelling and grammar? I would be willing to reciprocate but since I'm not to great on the spelling and grammar in the first place I don't know how much this would help.
