皆さん、こんにちは!
今回は「腰」を使った表現をたくさん勉強しましたが、なにか気に入る表現はありましたか?
Thursday at 11:04 pm
今日も有難う御座います。
お尻を突っ込むって笑。でも、ちょっと違うかなと思っているんです。「butt in」のbuttはお尻じゃなくて羊や山羊のように額か角でぶつけるということなんじゃないかと思っていました。
あっ、でも、もしソファーに座って話している二人の間に他者がどっかりと座ってしまって口を挟むのなら「お尻を突っ込む」っていいなあ。

I would like to have more knowledge on use での as not mentioned in most textbook.
As below, での is used, can anyone explain how is it used
もう5時です。今からでの6時の電車にまにあうでしょうか
Thanks

Can you give us another example sentence?
Because 今からでの六時の電車doesn’t sound right to me.
Friday at 12:25 pm
Actually a question from JPLT 1991 Level 3
問((((10))))
もう5時です。今から______6時の電車にまにあうでしょうか。
1.での 2.までも 3.とも 4.にも
Published answer is (1) での
Another question seem strange is
問((((1))))

営業先というのはbusiness client?

why is “って言っていたのに” not redundant? does the double quote convey “I thought you said” more?

人気の名前は、女性にBellaとMaeが去年たくさん使ったかも知れません。

I think I meant: …使われた…
Sometimes I wish we could edit our comments here…

「ばっかり」と「しか」は意味や使い方が同じですか?

そうですね。たぶんそんな私の聞いたBellaは本当に短く切ったIsabellaなんでしょう。そのリストをぜんぜん知りませんでしたが、内の赤ちゃんにMichaelを付けたんですよ。面白いです。

ヤドカリさん,
The って in って言っていたのに is simply replacing と here. Sometimes when quoting someone, the 言っていた part can be left out, so you have 「quote」って。Maybe that’s what you are thinking of?
Tuesday at 11:47 am
tkh -san
I would say it’s a typo. At least I can’ find a correct answers in the choices.
For 問((((10))))
The answer should be 「でも」not 「での」
For 問((((1))))
I don’t think the question and choices match.

Somehow the season three titles have a different flavor. Seems not directly related to the lesson contents. Feels quite genki. hehe

JF JFさん,
In this case I believe “buckle down and learn” is related to the phrase 本腰を入れる. I agree, the titles do have a new kind of spunkiness to them
