Getting your nails and wig ready for that ‘Guys, I’ve reached level 60’ post.

My mneumonic For that one is, since that one is intransitive “to be mixed”, imagine you’re getting mixed in a mixing bowl with a giant whisk or spoon or beater or whatever, and you’re screaming “AAAA” as opposed to “EEEE”

Same for あがる あげる, “a” for the angels singing as you rise, and “ge” for “get up there” when you’re trying to raise something

It’s a pain though with every verb

We see something tattooed on a woman’s back at the beach
Mom: “What does that say?”
Me: “I don’t know, it’s in Chinese.”

We’ve had that precise conversation word for word so many times

For transitive/intransitive pairs, so far my mnemonic is working. If I (or someone else, or something else) cause it to happen my action has an EEEeeffect on the object. If it moves itself for the action, then it does it AAAalone without the help of anything else.

Does that even happen at any level?

Yes, Diego san. I had a few 100% reviews in the first ten levels (at least 100+ reviews), though it is rarer as I level up. Today was one of those days. Most of the time I usually get at least a few wrong. (Not that I am proud of getting it wrong :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:)

Oh well…

I did know the みる, みえる, みせる pairing but for some reason those never tripped me up.

I general, if there is an あるーえる pair, then える us transitive while ある is not, but for つーてる, るーれる, むーえる, etc, the える one may or may not be transitive.
