  1. Could someone please explain the function of に in this sentence?

    私には妻と三人の子供がいます

    I know に as it is used for going places, but am unsure of it in this sentence. Thanks!

  2. Are there anki decks to replace wanikani?

    The person who wrote wanikani pretty clearly thinks they’re 100x more amusing and clever than they are, and I’ve gotten tired of the awful mnemonics and *wink wink* constant joke attempts. Like, ‘poop’ radical, seriously?

    So I’d like to shift over to anki.

  3. At a コンビニ, if I’m asked if I want a bag and I want to decline, what do I say?

    In the textbooks we learn that ううん is the casual form to say no. Do Japanese people actually use that in real life?

    Do I say ううん、結構です?
