Can you use multiple を in one sentence? It would seem to me, at least, that the writer is just combining two similar sentences into one longer sentence. |

Does 換骨奪胎 have negative connotation? Any way we could know what book that is that you are reading? |

What does the “~ておく” mean in “任せておく”? Whenever I see/hear 〜ておく being used... it seems to often follow the third meaning (that you listed above...) or... that something is to be done for future use (or for some future purpose.) |

Is there a figurative use to 春風? From just searching around online... it does look like 春風 can be used in combination with something like 新しい＋名詞 to convey the sense of "a new beginning." If I can find a more formal example of this... I'll try writing an answer later. |

Does this convey “It's not surprising that ___”? Yes, it could be translated like your "It's not surprising that..." line. |

How to effectively start learning Japanese? I still wonder if there isn't a better way to deal with language resource questions... as this forum is primarily in a language other than Japanese (English,) there will inevitably be more visitors asking about language-learning resources in the future. |

translation for “It serves as a good reminder for me”? @Flaw That makes sense; might have to do with the topic of morality, then. |

What exactly does この通{とお}りmean? @Pacerier Great question; that all has to do with the topic of "rendaku". More information can be found here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rendaku. There is also a nicely-formatted (though not necessarily accurate,) article written about rendaku here, as well: tofugu.com/2011/08/23/rendaku-sequential-voicing-japanese |

Trying to translate 遊ばにゃ損なってなもんだろうがおう！ @user1259 Welcome to the forum! You may already know this, but just a friendly note for the future: if someone posts an answer to your question here, make sure to "accept" the answer... so that the question has some sort of resolution for future visitors. :) Thanks~ |

When is it appropriate to use ごくろうさま? @Chocolate true, true, that would be interesting; people my age always seem to end up using お疲れ〜 with me, and older people always seem to use ご苦労 with me, haha... |

When is 終わる used as a transitive verb? @TsuyoshiIto That does sound more natural, at least. |

Are 終{お}わる and 済{す}ませる synonyms? @dotnetN00b It looks like 済ませる would be for when there is a direct object, like in this example... but the meaning would still be relatively the same. But you might want to stick with 終わる・終える to keep things a bit more natural. |

Are 終{お}わる and 済{す}ませる synonyms? @dotnetN00b It sounds like the difference might be something like: use 済む here when you mean that something is "completely finished". Example: After you have (completely) finished your homework, you can have fun. |

What is the difference with 引充 and 引当 @Nap Interesting; maybe it's just a set phrase/usage, then... |

What is the difference with 引充 and 引当 Are you sure 引充 isn't actually just a Chinese word? I can't seem to find that combination in a Japanese dictionary... :( |
