Nov 3	comment	What's the deal with/origin of the character 曰? Yeah, the middle stroke there actually doesn't go all the way across. Fortunately you will probably never have to differentiate them except by (extremely obvious) context.
Sep 13	comment	How the ～にあって form works - situations, places, times, what? Well, I didn't think 立場 was any of them. I was thinking of 国の指導者 as a 特別な状況 - perhaps I should ask why it isn't.
Jul 14	comment	difference between 打ち合わせ　and 会議　and ミーティング Though this question has already been answered, if you understand enough Japanese, you can always look up words on Goo's thesaurus to try and get a feel for the differences between synonyms. dictionary.goo.ne.jp/thsrs
Jun 9	comment	Can 【～たら】 be a short form of 【～てから】? As a side note, there is a ~ったら ending, used, for example, after a person's name. It carries a different meaning that indicates the user's exasperation or annoyance with the person, but has nothing to do with either ~たら or ~てから. But, you probably know this. :)
