comment Definition and use of やれやれだ
The best I found is this. The やれ interrogation (eg: やれ、誰それ) seems to be the original use and then it evolved to やれやれ as an interjection.

Are you talking about 越す/超える(title & text) or 越す/越える(examples)? different 漢字 often imply a different meaning.

comment Why is it なさそう and not なそう
Reference 未然形 - 打消. 無い as a 形容詞 and ない as 助動詞 are just homonyms (and have a close meaning to confuse the things even more).

comment What's the difference between 捕らえる and 捕まえる?
Nice catch. That's why I used "main" :). The とる reading for 摂 is not part of the 常用漢字, so I shortened it here.

comment “don't say it, if you don't want to” in japanese
"言わない" is not an adjective but 言う verb 未然形 + ない 助動詞. "言わなく" would be 言う verb 未然形 + ない 助動詞 連用形.
