Programmer in ObjC, Ruby and most web scripting languages. Fluent in Japanese with 16 years experience speaking the language. Lived in Japan 5.5 years. Attained JLPT1 (on my first go - woo!) in 1999. I love Japanese language trivia plus anything good for the Izakaya gets me going! Language study is for the speakers, not just the linguists. :D

“Rather than”-construction Personally I was always a fan of むしろ auxiliary as in [恥を受けることよりも、むしろ死んだ方がいい！」 *grin* |

Contrasting っぽい、らしい、みたい @Matt good answer but your initial translation shows らしい + っぽい as identical, which is usually not the case. As read from a beginner's perspective I don't think the answer sufficiently disambiguates them. っぽい often has a strong connotation of trying too hard, or trying to be seen a particular way. IMO for practical disambiguation purposes Axioplase's answer is more useful. I'm adding this comment to flag this bc your answer has come up on top (well done) and we know people usually only read the top answer :p |

Which is better for a sales budget: 予算, 推計, or something I haven't even thought of yet? no one here knows what a SWAG is. Why you tell us all? |
