餌食 vs 獲物 Is it true that 獲物 can be used in the "prey" sense, for example what would be the difference between こいつは俺の獲物だ and こいつは俺の餌食だ? |

Does ネガティブ mean “negative”, or “bad”, when describing a person? Lols reminded me of this: onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/… |

How to decide to use どうせ or しょせん? @Chocolate Sry, also I was wondering would 所詮 or どうせい be more natural in the sentence: XXあいつらは動物だ、なくなってもかまわない。 |

When Chinese personal names are written in Japanese in kanji is there always an obvious reading? Hmm, maybe I should have used the term "linguistically valid"... |

When Chinese personal names are written in Japanese in kanji is there always an obvious reading? So you are saying that it is grammatically valid to arbitrarily assign any readings to a kanji? |

How to decide to use どうせ or しょせん? @Chocolate Hmm, so do you mean that 結局 is the best word to replace どう in the sentence "どうせ私はネイティブではありませんので~~", or are there better alternatives? |

How to decide to use どうせ or しょせん? @Chocolate But using どうせ, there will be a "grumbling" connotation right? Is there a word that is commonly used in conversation but doesn't have the "grumbling" connotation? |

“causative of negative” vs “negative of causative”? @sawa Hmm, with that we have "tabe-sase-nai" meaning "forcing you not to eat", and "tabe-naku-saseru" meaning "forcing you to not eat". But since "forcing you not to eat" and "forcing you to not eat" is the same thing, what is the difference between "tabe-sase-nai" and "tabe-naku-saseru" ? |
