Why “you don't have to want to hold”? Looks like a typo to me. Should be 持たなくてもいい. I don't think there's a verb もる that would make sense at all. It can't be "want to carry" because that would be 持ちたい or 持ちたくない as a negative. |

What is その doing in そのあの子? To me it just seems to be explicitly referring the あの子 from before, as you say, like "I just said this thing so I'm using その to refer to it" |

Why aren't マンション mansions? Or are they? I probably just didn't read it thoroughly. I skimmed through the body and found the mansion block reference, so maybe disregard that comment. |

Can Japanese names be anything? @Dono That is interesting, I wasn't aware that readings could be changed so easily. But just to be sure you weren't correcting anything in my answer, right? |

Difference between progressive verb forms and i-adjectives Yeah sorry, you're totally right about that. I was talking solely in terms of people. @user2052561 Please take note that this doesn't necessarily imply a transition from not-fat to fat; it just means fat by whatever subjective measure you want to use. |

Difference between progressive verb forms and i-adjectives Yes, but only relative to 'normal' human size. 太る as a verb refers specifically to humans/animals gaining weight, as in the opposite of 痩{や}せる (to lose weight). 太い has no animal connotations and refers specifically to a more innate physical property, as in the opposite of 細{ほそ}い. And for the record, alc's entry for 太い人 lists "chubbafats" as the translation, so there you go. |
