こんばんは
Last lesson was only revision and reinforcing Lesson 34~
Today, we started Lesson 35~! We learned 4 things!
① "Word stem + ながら" = ..while..
E.g.
Verb A = 飲みます Drink
Verb B = 話します Chat
友達と話しながらお茶を飲みます。
I drink tea while chatting with my friend.
② たり = many nouns/adjectives/verbs in no sequence
-- All words to be used with たり have to be in た-form.
-- It usually has a meaning of "etc".
-- Remember to write the します and です at the end.
E.g.1. 土曜日、私は洗濯したり、本を読んだり、テレビを見たりします。
On Saturday, I wash clothes, read a book, watch television.
E.g.2. この部屋はきれいだったり、広かったり、安かったりです。
This room is clean, big, cheap.
③ "Plain form + し" = many reasons
E.g.
Reason 1: It's raining.
Reason 2: There's no time.
Result: Go by a cab.
雨が降っているし、時間がないし、タクシーで行きます。
It's raining and there's no time, I will go by a cab.
④ みたい = like
E.g.1. 雪みたいな花。
A flower that is like snow.
Here, みたい works like a な-adj.
E.g.2. 花が木から雪みたいに散ります。
The flowers will fall from the trees like snow.
Here, みたい works like an adverb.
はい！以上です！また来週ね！
おやすみなさい～！
