Awwwwwwww. That was such an inspiring post! ;) Yay for aiming to get out of beginnerhood by the end of the year. I really do want to start understanding more without having to sit and carefully pick things apart. Practice, practice!
Are you sure you want あきらめる as one of your Ultimate Verbs? ;) There is no あきらめる-ing allowed here! haha Great job hearing and recognizing something in the wild!
Yeah, we’ll blame the writing system. ;)
I finished reviewing the na-adjective lesson today. I think I’ve got a pretty good handle on that concept now. Tomorrow night I’ll just be reviewing all of my due Anki cards. Sunday it’s on to the i-adjectives and pushing to finish Season 2 soon. The adverbs lesson is new to me as well so maybe I’ll finish that on Monday.
