Tip's Notes & Plans

level 48 has 36 vocabulary lessons pending. I have also skipped the most recent new content. Level 49 unlocked 3/3 R, 32/35 K (32 needed for next level), 22/107 V

:crabigator: This context sentence made me laugh way too hard.

Last week I looked up this word 闇 as part of that Table of Contents. This week, the kanji appeared in my WK level 48 lessons .


I never thought Duolingo would add more content…color me surprised when I went to do my dailies and found my progress automatically synched with the new skill tree. There are now two more levels! Level six ,which used to be the end, also had one subunit added.

Reading
Particles this week seemed obscure.

Novel 生きてるだけで,愛


The protagonist is becoming unlikable. Being inside her head is rough.

おい、お前は、文章にたずさわってメシ食ってんだろうが、なんで自分の彼女に一番楽してんだよ、もっとちゃんと言葉考えてどうにかしろよ、実家貧乏なくせに、とそのあからさまな手抜き加減に腹が立つものの長い言葉をしゃべる気にもならず、あたしは「うるさい。起こすな」と返すだけにんしておいた。

Summary

Hey, you make a living writing, right? Why are you so relaxed with your own girlfriend? You should think about your words more carefully and do something about it (do right by me), Despite being from a poor family, I was offended by his blatant negligence, but I didn’t feel like having a drawn out conversation, so I just replied, “Shut up. Don’t wake me up.”

Reading-
needed some easy wins lately; limited myself to context sentences.

Particles

image

image compound and complex sentences with me focusing on the particles. For the most part, I could read the JP but messed up a lot outputting the JP myself. I don’t feel bad about it since my study emphasis is on consumption rather than production.
