Not yet or still with まだ
まだ can be used to express when something is not yet the case, or is still the case…
This is a collection of my notes taken as I learn to use the Japanese language.
まだ can be used to express when something is not yet the case, or is still the case…
もう can be used to express when something is already the case, or will not be the case again…
You can compose compose conditional or hypothetical phrases using 〜たら. You can compose it using the plain past conjugation of a word and appending ら to it. This is one of many ways of forming conditionals or hypotheticals…
Using も, だけ, and しか can add nuance to amounts of things…
It's about time I started keeping notes again! I've engineered in just enough
to make it fun rather than an hindrance. For example, I can how write furigana
in a way that doesn't look out of place in markdown. For example,
[私,わたし](r)
renders as 私. It also works on
words with multiple ruby components. For example
[振,ふ,り,,仮名,がな](r)
renders as 振り仮名.
The comma separated list is paired groups of characters (which is why the
り is followed by an empty element). I'm abusing markdown
links to do this, but since r
is not a valid URL it's an acceptable tradeoff
in my opinion…
