I learnt that くださって is a common japanese phrase
keen to ask you guys what common sentences くださって is found in.
追いかけても 逃げるように 学校行っちゃうだもん
can someone help me understand the mo, youni and the mon?
i guess the mon is there to state that the thing that has happened like the things that are happening modifies mon, i think i understand it but i could very well be wrong, it is hard to explain it
i just dont understand the mo, casue it means also right? and the you ni. im not sure what it means in this case if the oikakete is included in the modification as well or what it all means together.
the english translation is You ran off to school so fast, I couldn’t catch you… but i just cannot make sense of the grammar
必死になって追いかけても、こっちの命が危なくなるだけ… another example.
im starting to think the mo functioning like te so you can add a follow up
like verb-te, something else.
What does the particle ni do when used with sokkuri?
あなたはお姉さんにそっくりです。
There doesn’t seem to be any sense of location/direction/in/at
When do suru verbs require “wo” before suru?
For example, the sentence
私のお姉さんは毎朝ラニングをする。
What does wo function between ラニング and する. Why not ラニングする
I can’t believe I actually understood 70%+ of a song without subtitles. I listened to +♂ the funny but pretty pervy vocaloid song sung by Reol. Normally I’d be reading the lyrics… but the song is so simple even if pretty quick. I’m so happy, but I wish I could have picked a better song to test my progress on. Youtube algorithms and all… haha. Has anyone actually gotten good at listening via songs?
