Would anyone allow me to send them my bio ive written for review? I’m only n4/n5 level, so I don’t want it to seem like I’m above what I am when you correct it. But rather make sure it’s coherent and grammatically sound.
I would like to learn vocabulary in categories, such as all the colors, common foods, etc. does anyone have any useful resources for this? Thank you in advance!
nuance question!
in an anime, the two characters are cooking. character b watches as character a goes to add salt, but the lid is still on, and he doesn’t realize this. then he tastes the food again. jp:
a: うん。ちょうどよくなった。
b: ちょうどよくなちゃった!
en:
a: Mm. Now it’s perfect.
b: And now it’s perfect!
what nuance does the ~ちゃった add here? I know it’s te shimau, but what is it adding to the line here? 😮
I’m not sure if this sentence is correct.
After defining あいづち in a previous sentence, this sentence is introduced in a text:
これをあいづちという。
I wanna know why を is used in this sentence. It doesn’t seems like there’s any transitive verb that would use it. Unless いう can be used with both を and と. But I’ve only used it with と in the past. So, I’m not sure.
In any case, why not use が or は?
