This month I talk about the importance of giving up! (What!?) I also examine a sentence from a very difficult essay and talk about 修飾 (shūshoku, description/modification) and 主題 (shudai, topics). At the end I go over a few additional reviews of the English translation of Murakami's latest novel and discuss a usage of 伺う (ukagau, to ask/to hear/to visit) that I neglected to include in last month's episode. Check out the blog and newsletter as well. Feel free to reach out with any questions or 悩み事 to [email protected]. You can also follow How to Japanese on Substack, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook.
