Always moving on from one challenge to the next. 日本語の誤りを指摘してください🙏もし英語で言いたいことがあったら、どう言うかを聞いてくれれば大丈夫です🙂

@forn2017 Tho I of course also just like knowing/talking to you too!

Even though I didn't say anything I was still spying on your posts 😜

[Brett Turner @Br3ttTurner]

@forn2017 I ended up getting into exercising and reading books about my job on my days off. Plus, I got Duolingo and it's helping me remember vocabularly better. I kept on forgetting the words I was using here and it was discouraging.

[Brett Turner @Br3ttTurner]

@forn2017 With your expression, "It was meant to be that way" this means "It was intended to be that way" (それは故意にされた/そのようにである予定だ)

ex) "Don't worry about wrecking it. It's meant to be a single-use object so you can just throw it away later"

[Brett Turner @Br3ttTurner]

@forn2017 for some reason when it's in the negative or past tense it doesn't sound formal at all.
"I didn't mean to kill him" = "I didn't intend to kill him"
"I meant to kill him"="I intended to kill him"

@forn2017 本当のwouldであれば割れるかどうかが言われなかった何か次第です。 It looked like it would break soon (if I kept on using it roughly)

最後に、thatの後で過去でもwillとwouldが使えます。自由選択肢です!
They said that they'll be here at 6.⭕
They said that they would be here at 6.⭕

[Brett Turner @Br3ttTurner]

@forn2017 ①のwouldは実際にwillを意味します。なぜ過去で「will」を使わないか分かりません🧐　

しかし、今は問題があります。過去でwill->wouldなら下記の質問があります。... 本当のwouldですか、それともwouldとして偽造されたwillですか?

当てずっぽうで答えなければいけません。

@Firulais0011 Para japonés en particular empecé a usar Duolingo. Antes busquaba un término tras otro que encontraba en los diálogos de los juegos de pokemon pero casi todos se me olvidaban unos minutos después. Para mi es necesario repasar lo que acabo de aprender para memorizarlo bien.

[Brett Turner @Br3ttTurner]

@forn2017 Yes! I shall keep trying, for the love of a challenge.

[Brett Turner @Br3ttTurner]

@niji_gutsu Actually after "kind of" you don't have to use "a". It's optional!

I haven't ever danced in front of anyone, and I missed the disco era haha. But my grandmother used to go to dances all of the time. It was good socialization for her 🙂

[Brett Turner @Br3ttTurner]

@kaorijapantokyo Well, you probably know much better songs. Sponge Bob is nostalgic for me so I always think of my good childhood days.

Here's some tunes from the show😆

@niji_gutsu Dance partyという用語があるけどa danceより小さい集まりだと思います。友達だけから構成される集まりです。行事じゃないです

[Brett Turner @Br3ttTurner]

@niji_gutsu 人が踊るイベントであればただ「dance」と言います。

例えば、Are you and your girlfriend going to the dance at the highschool tonight?

「What kind of a dance is it?」私に聞けば「It's not a formal event so come dressed however you like!」と答えることができます。

[Brett Turner @Br3ttTurner]

@forn2017 順は間違えなくいつか字幕無しで見られます。他の英語学習者に感嘆しても私は順に感嘆します。

最近、私はメキシコで作られたシリーズを見ました。スペイン語を勉強をして初めてから八年後にやっと聞き取ることができます。嬉しいです😊

[Brett Turner @Br3ttTurner]

@forn2017 Oh that's interesting! Here I don't think many people watch films that aren't in English. People tend to watch the dubbed version over using subtitles I think.

[Brett Turner @Br3ttTurner]

@forn2017 順の書いたことを読んだ後も、最初にそれを「もう(私に)聞いたわ」のように読みました😲

ご主人は順と一緒に英語で映画を観ますか?
