ender>> haha nowadays i detain him during his break to ask him qns. i think he has a number of classes. will try to ask after school. I have many minor qns as well so I think it will take a long time to clear up...haha! Can I post my qns here?

sure you can... *glances at the next few posts*

i believe Dimitri has helped you out already ? post more questions if you need help. Dimitri san is quite good (and fast) at replying and explaining stuff.

JCS ? try the normal course (which is one year) instead of the intensive one (which is half year).

「食べてから」->after eating

「食べたから」->because ate.

thats not what i meant.

例えば、

食べてから宿題をやります
食べたから宿題をやります

Or

お菓子を食べてからお茶を飲む
お菓子を食べたからお茶を飲む

or

仕事を終わってから食事する
仕事を終わったから食事する

Its the diff between ～てから　and ～たから that i don't know
not the から　as in "because"

 

[dimitri_can]

てから is the correct one.

What level of JLPT are u studying?

You asked
"what's the diff between ”食べてから”　と　”食べたから”　？？"

So i am explaining.
「食べてから」->after eating

ごはんをたべてから、テレビを見ます。
After i ate, i watch TV.

「食べたから」->because ate.

ごはんをたべたから,おなかがいっぱいです。
Because i ate, my stomach is full...


ender san> i am explaining correctly right?

 

[Niaoson]

the correct answer: YOU HAVE JUST CREATED A NEW SENTENCE STRUCTURE!

たからdoes NOT have the meaning of after. so ur question of what's the diff between てから　and たから　is invalid to begin with since they dun even have a common meaning

 

[dimitri_can]

hey... don't tease him/her...guide...

 

[ransackyourtoilet]

dimitri>>ohhhh! i think i keep doing kara (because) till i confused liao. hhaha. For the so****e and sorekara....I'm abit not sure. If i say i do this then i do this i should always use sorekara?

think i will ask my teacher for q4 den post it up for anyone whos interested to know.

unfinished>> for kara as in after, its always te-form. for kara as in because, it is always plain form (asobu kara) or the past tense form of the plain form (asonda kara). so 食べたから宿題をやります,お菓子を食べたからお茶を飲む and 仕事を終わったから食事する doesn't make sense.

Thanks for the help minna!

Ｑ１）このことは彼女に知られたら、誰にでも話してしまうから、気をつけてください。
「誰でもに」じゃない？

Ｑ２）いくら勉強してもすぐ忘れてしまう。私はもう年だ。
この文の「年」は何いう意味？ねんかとし？

Ｑ３）洗濯機は服を洗うにとても便利です。
「あらうには」じゃないか？

Ｑ４）［だい？」と「かい？」の使い方は同じですか？

 

[ahmahippo]

HAI.... wonder will i be so gd like u guys

 

[Niaoson]

for the first question i get what u are trying to say and grammatically speaking it should be 誰にも言ってしまうから but to me using 誰にも sounds very weird in this situation. when speaking normally i will use 皆に言ってしまうから

brb go eat fruits -.-

 

[dimitri_can]

is it nice?

yes. Quite nice.

 

[dimitri_can]

「そして」 and 「それから」, use それから

 

[dimitri_can]

だれでも-> anybody

だれにもー＞to anybody.

このことは彼女に知られたら、誰にでも話してしまうから、気をつけてください。
「誰でもに」じゃない？

I cannot get what u wanna say...

Ｑ２）いくら勉強してもすぐ忘れてしまう。私はもう年だ。
この分の「年」は何いう意味？ねんかとし？

->should use 年寄り instead of 年

Ｑ３）洗濯機は服を洗うにとても便利です。
「あらうには」じゃないか？

don't use double particles for this type of issue.

Double particles should be used when you wanna emphasize on something. e.g

私の学校には先生が１０人います。

In my school, there are 10 teachers.

vs

私の学校は先生が１０人います。

My school has 10 teachers.

So? Which sentence sounds stronger? lol

Ｑ４）［だい？」と「かい？」の使い方は同じですか？

だい->machines, e.g 洗濯機が１だい

かい->times, e.g ４級の試験を１かいやりました。
