    Wow, this is amazing
    If my understanding is correct you are from ireland and your mother language is irish. You write like you speak, including an irish accent in word and grammar. And you do not see when a sentence has endet,do you? But you are completely fine with reading and understanding.

    In the beginning RPing is a lot of "try and error" and getting used to it. But most players that are open for RP are usually very tolerant. You also dont need to panic about beeing to slow, rp is mostly done kind of slow and waiting a little is part of it.
    The communitie in FF14 is welcoming and likes to help. First step is to take your courage and simply ask for it, or, you mentioned bars/clubs, just go there and take a look.

    Hardest part certainly is your special way to talk and write, but since its also something that is unique it is something you can work with in rping. Female aura with a written irish accent is grandiose, other players will love that. They just need to get it. Dont get discouraged when they dont understand you, it something you will have to take.

    One tip i have for you is to try to avoid long sentences to help others to understand what you just said. Dont go much longer than 10 to 12 words for a long sentence.

    Have in mind that most other players had the same fears and feelings of embarrassment when they first tried. You are not the first, only or last one. Be confident!

    there are alot of rp mentors .look for rp communities for your data centre in community finder .im pretty sure if you tell them your problem they will be understanding and accomodate you.

    There's a very valid amount of RP communities one way or another across all data centers, and a lot of them use discord - and some of them use voice and some of them don't - there's all valid ways for communication and i'm proud to know that XIV has a long standing history of accommodating people
