Kana-entry method has a key that lets you enter the dakuten as a separate symbol (on my keyboard it’s the [ key, but it could be different on yours). あ゛. Dunno if that’s possible to do with romaji input. I guess you could type だくてん and push space until it comes up.

That said, if this is the first time you’ve ever seen it, you weren’t paying attention way back in chapter one. 😛

Aw man we’re starting volume 2? I’m excited. I better buy this one then.  
Volume one was just too cute.  
Reading a manga will be great considering I’m mainly reading novels with the other clubs.

Thanks for that, just found it, page 20! How do you do that @Belthazar? You’re amazing!

Asked the resident expert how she’d say あ゛and she has no idea. Asked her how she’d type it and she says she has no idea! Then asks me, as she always does, what the heck I’m reading! lol!

明るいうちに 移動しておくに 越したことはない

明るい - bright  
うちに - home? / inside? + に  
移動 - movement  
して - する in て-form  
おく - to do something in advance  
に - に  
越した - to cross over, in past form  
こと - thing  
は - subject marker  
ない - isn’t

I have no idea! The anime translates this as “always better to move when it’s still light out”, but I’m lost trying to break it all down. Any help much appreciated!

I don’t have the manga with me to check context or something, but I’ll do my best. 🔅

というか has its own [jisho entry](https://jisho.org/search/%E3%81%A8%E8%A8%80%E3%81%86%E3%81%8B): 1. or perhaps I should say; or more precisely; or, how should I put it; or rather

Is the 分ける that or in て form? If it is て form then it does combine with もらった into the English sentence you put. (Is that the one in the English version manga or anime again like before?)

If it is 分ける in it’s dictionary form, grammatically that sentence ends there and a new one starts with もらった.

Oh no! I’m usually really careful about typos in Japanese (and in English for that matter) but this one got through and yes, it really messed me up! Thank you for pointing it out! Thank you!

From the anime - but in the anime they leave out the 別れる前に bit.

You’re welcome - in that case I feel the need to expand a bit. You probably know this, but I say that grammatically the sentence ends there because the next word is also a verb. If it was a noun that wouldn’t necessarily be the case. 🙂

I know that もー 運転中によそ見しちゃダメじゃん means "don’t look away [from the road] while you are driving, but I’m not sure about a couple of things…

1. what is the しちゃ doing here? Is it a form of する?
2. I think that じゃん is a version of じゃない, is that right? Does だめじゃない mean “don’t”?

**Page 15**

- やっぱカメラは私が持っとく
- what is that とく ending?
- Is it a casual form of ておく ([to do something in advance](https://japanesetest4you.com/flashcard/learn-japanese-grammar-42/))?
