What's the え particle that's used as で？

if u mean "he" as a particle its different from "de" as a particle tho

Does Japanese have a polite version of body language? For example where I live, ...
there are like certain rules
like bowing etc
not directly giving money into their hands as well
like you always have a tray where ure expected to put the money and the person will pick it up using both fingers cuz its "polite" ig

customer is king taken to next lvl
no not letter lmao

full mauve
I just barely use cash anymore anyways

Japan and Germany suffer from boomer mindset tho so both still use cash more than most other countries in the region 💀

Giving cash gives you a sense of giving something up that card doesn't have

I want electronic payment everywhere

Apparently you're 80% more likely to overspend with a debit card
full mauve
yea but if I spend cash i look at my bank account and go "wow that purchase was free!"

abstract mist
No it wasn't wtf
full mauve
for me cash is only last resort type of money
I need to see exactly when and what I spend and that I can do with electronic payment
also its 10 x faster
to pay with card I just get my phone out and done
abstract mist
Wow...
full mauve
to pay with cash i need to get wallet out, pick out bank notes, get back change money etc
abstract mist
It costs money though
abstract mist
it costs exactly the same as paying with cash lol
Like I said you're more likely to overspend
You'll choose to spend more money when it's convenient
full mauve
for me not really, only time i waste money is when its online anyway
Only things I buy offline are groceries and sometimes I go and eat out thats it lol
and when going to eat out I have to pay with cash often times anyways cuz restaurants still live in 20th century

@full mauve TODAY I LEARNED

oh
yea its very different meaning tho
average japanese loan word moment
they keep taking loan words and just changing their meaning for convenience sake
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dvBeGps7Skg average japan school moment
abstract mist
yea its very different meaning tho
Ofc
It's one of the first words you learn in a typical slice of life anime
It means "to slack off"
abstract mist
most often its used as "to skip" id say
To slack off is usually how it's translated in the subs
If I were to give a proper definition, it would be "to not do something you have to do"
full mauve
yea its not a wrong translation depending on context obviously
"to skip" can also be wrong depending on context
thats why u use monolingual dic 😎
"怠けて、するべきことをせずにやり過ごすさま"
hot fern
Does Japanese have a polite version of body language? For example where I live, ...
Yes there a various ways of this. As flx said, bowing, exchanging cash. Another is exchanging business cards. You have to do it a certain way too.
If ur at a meeting sitting, you both stand up and exchange with both hands holding the corners of the card and then some other stuff

Nue's ability is making things unidentified. When you look at her unidentified form, your brain automatically fills in that part of the picture with what's supposed to be there, rather than see the actual thing in front of you. Hence the unidentified (fantastic object)
In the video, Nue switches to her unidentified form, which your brain automatically fills with another Flandre, but the wings are kept for artistic purposes

Telegram sucks for communities. There's a reason everyone uses discord to make a public place for people to talk
Like, seriously
Most people you'll talk to over telegram are the people who you've met IRL and have a phone number of

Afaik its literally same as WhatsApp (i only used telegram once tho) so some ppl definetly use it for communities too id bet
Obviously its not the best but some ppl dont care and just want whats convenient
And since everybody uses either Telegram WhatsApp line or wechat those apps dont have to be great just good enough and convenient
