    Generally speaking, in writing, the term "writing suit" is defined by asking does the way one writes, the structure of the text, fulfill/state the author's idea or thought he/she wanted to present? (Is there background information presented? Is there an opinion or reaction? Is there a recommendation/judgment ?) Is the writing set out in a form that suits the purpose?

    I do not know if this helps you. Hope it does not add to any confusion. Best of all in your translating.

    It would help to have the whole line that the expression occurs in... context can make several meanings, especially in poetry?
