Tの例文や意味・使い方に関するQ&A

A: "To arrange" is to make or to put together something in a certain position/order. Making plans is putting tasks you need to do in a certain order, so in this context: "arranging" = "planning/making plans"

So, the sentence could mean, "I haven't made plans about this with anybody."

A: It means that you’re going to make sure that everything is done properly with no error. So, everything is done with great attention to detail.

A: It means paying a great deal of attention to the details of something, especially when you are trying to complete a task.

E.g.
“I'm nearly finished with writing this song, but I still have to dot the i's and cross the t's.”

A: Is this for an essay or presentation?

A: We will start with looking at the origins of don’t. Don’t is actually an abbreviation of do not, and is the synonym (opposite to) do. Not makes the sentence negative. Do is a verb which can be replaced with other action words to better express what is being explained.

Examples of opposites.
Love____ hate
Found____lost
Problems____solutions
Do____do not (don’t)

Don’t touch me! (Do not touch me!)
Don’t do it again! I’m warning you.
Don’t speak to me like that.

You can also see that don’t is used as a command here.

Not is like an exclusion of a phrase which proceeds (comes after the word) not.

I’m not finding what you are saying useful. (It makes finding negative, meaning you are still lost).
I’m not going to say it again. (Not means that there will be no further of the following in the future).
I’m not coming home next week. I’ll see you in a month (means that others will not see you arrive for the time being, until a month has passed.)


Another difference is that don’t may be used more colloquially than not. There are more useful phrases you can use such as shouldn’t which is more contextually sound. Should is a softer phrase suggesting something should be done without the command connotations.

You shouldn’t try that again instead of don’t try that again.
You shouldn’t breathe on the food instead of don’t breathe on the food.

A: if sending a letter. this could be used. *To whom it may concern.*

A: There really isn’t a difference. They both mean the same thing, you can use either.

A: they are the same

A: @kei_5221023 うん、本当です。

"I don't know"は「ちょっと忘れた」も意味しますが、文脈によります。例えば、質問の答えを忘れた時: "I don't know" は正しい表現です。

A: #1 ☑️
#2 ❌ much care is incorrect word placement, doesn’t make any sense.

A: Both mean the same thing, except "I don't forget walking along the river" makes no sense, it's not grammatically correct, the tenses are mixed up. "Don't" implies a more present/future tense, for example "Don't turn on the television" or "Don't eat the cake".
So if you want to say it in that sense, you wouldn't use "don't", you could use "didn't" but that would change the whole point of what you're trying to say because I'm guessing you're trying to say that you recall walking along the river. If you used "didn't", it would imply that you had to do something (walk along the river) and you remembered to do it, and in order to make that grammatically correct, you would also change "walking" to "walk"
— "I didn't forget to walk along the river".

Long story short, as you're saying that you've walked along the river before, and you remember it, you would say "I remember walking along the river".

A: If it gets any hotter, it'll be summer. At least that means we can enjoy wearing T-shirts.

A: important

A: it's because of the word "if".

A: It sounds like "canchu" when it is pronounced quickly

A: Yes, good decision!

A: In that phrase, it depends on the speaker and speaking pace.
If you pronounce it with or without the d, it would be understood.
The word "told" by itself could be pronounce without the d, or with it softer, as most Americans do. When speaking quickly, you can't even tell if the d was dropped or not, there's not a huge difference in that case.

Dropping a consonant inside a cluster of three isn't very much a rule, it's something some people are used to for speaking easier. Though inside some words, it should indeed be dropped.

A: I think though, since it is your friend, and you think she is being a bit picky. You could say “ at least there is one”
