1. Whats the quickest way to mine word from document? My current idea is to just search one by one in Akebi and add to list, from which I can parse to Anki or wherever I want.

2. From [this post](https://detail.chiebukuro.yahoo.co.jp/qa/question_detail/q12175535887)

   > 「帰った帰った」「残った、残った」「買った、買った！」は、命令の表現「帰れ」「残れ」「買え」を強調した表現です。まだ、「帰る／残る／買う」という動作がなされていないのですから、「た」を使って**そう**は言えないはずですが、実際には言われています。

   What is そう?

3. > 漫画やアニメ、SF小説等の作品内では、高齢であることがストーリー上、重要な意味を持つ登場人物の言葉づかいに、一人称「わし」や語尾「じゃ」、打消し「ぬ（ん）」といった特定の言い回しが、しばしば用いられる。

   「高齢であることがストーリー上、重要な意味を持つ」is modifying 登場人物. True or false?

4. I’m interested in a comment about the usage of を in this sentence “座席を必要としている人へゆずる気づかい”. I feel that が is not used instead of を because the emphasis of the sentence is not 必要, like it would be in お金が必要です。but I’m not sure.

5. I saw ‘Ｇ２マイン’ translated to ‘blood relative’ but I don’t really understand it and couldn’t find it in a dictionary or search. Does anyone know exactly what is means and where it comes from?

6. How to speak more(confidently) with my sensei? For context I am at N4 level and will be taking N3 class next week. So our employer provides Japanese teacher. They are so friendly and very close to us students. However when a circumstances of being alone with them in the office comes, I tend to cut short our conversation because I find it hard to find the words I want to say or I don’t want them to wait for me to finish my sentences which will take too long. 😢 speaking is my only problem. I am not this bad in terms of listening and reading at N4 level.
