As I’m prepping for N2, I’ve started watching anime without subtitles to improve my listening, so these words probably don’t have too much of a connection, but just capturing what I heard from the anime.
堪らない たまらない meaning Irresistible
俺のことを庇った 庇う（かばう）- protect, defend, stand up for someone
馴れ馴れ（なれなれ）しくすんな stop acting like we’re buddies, 少跟我裝熟 馴れ馴れしい – overly friendly, cheeky すんな – rude way to say するな ヤンキー likes to talk like this
普通、引くだろう？ 一般人通常都會退縮吧？（你這傢伙是怎麼回事？） Normal people would back off by now (what’s wrong with this dude)… 引く（ひく）put off by someone’s bad behavior, grossed out, 感到反感
親しくもねぇだろう 親しい（したしい）- close, intimate
よくねぇつってんだろう つって as a very colloquial contraction of って言って つってんだろう == って言っているんだろ

I’m currently prepping for my official teaching certification for Mandarin/Chinese, so expect more Mandarin-related notes for the next couple of months. Hope I can get that certificate on my first try ❤️
I just wanted to give a heads-up so the blog doesn’t feel unrecognizable. I’ll still be posting my other language notes. It’s still Meowbrown, just with a new goal added to the mix. Thanks for sticking around!
I’ve already taken the test in July, and waiting for the results in September, hope I’ll pass 🤞🤞🤞
In the end I actually made an app that can help me review all the past exam questions and study from that, so there wasn’t too much content regarding the test here.
I encountered くすり指 today and I felt very confused so I went and looked it up. Apparently it’s the means the ring finger and I think it’s the most confusing one since I don’t have the cultural background.
Went ahead and learned all five fingers, I like 中指 the most, sooooo straightforward 🤣
Actually this was the one that I wanted to use cuz the interface is much more cleaner and easy to understand. I just couldn’t find it when I tried Googling for it yesterday.
Recently I found this site where you can type the Japanese lyrics for the songs. Key is to not stare at the romaji when typing, stare at either the Japanese (with Kanji) or the pure hiragana and type.
Due to it being the 10th anniversary, right now we can watch ユーリ!!! on ICE for free for 30 days, and I’m my challenge is to understand everything without subtitles!
So probably recent posts will be around stuff I learnt in the anime.
