| Apr 25, 2023 at 7:26 | comment | added | auspicacious | Respectfully, and acknowledging that I don't know your background and experience, I think that you may be too focused on one particular use of 〜んだから at the expense of its more general use when explaining the cause of something. While I agree that a simple ので is always useful in this situation, I have asked a native speaker about your comment, and, to them, 〜んだから can be rude or not rude depending on intonation and body language more than anything else. This person did not see anything offensive about the original sentences. I don't see any other commenters here confirming your opinion, either. | |
