The Japan Times<p>The term “bakari” can be used in several different ways to emphasize and define the limit of a range. Check out your options in this week's Bilingual piece. <a href="https://www.japantimes.co.jp/life/2025/04/11/language/osaka-expo-grammar-bakari/?utm_medium=Social&amp;utm_source=mastodon" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">japantimes.co.jp/life/2025/04/</span><span class="invisible">11/language/osaka-expo-grammar-bakari/?utm_medium=Social&amp;utm_source=mastodon</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/life" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>life</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/language" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>language</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/nihongo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nihongo</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/voacbulary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>voacbulary</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/grammar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>grammar</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/jlptn1" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>jlptn1</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/jlptn2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>jlptn2</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/jlptn3" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>jlptn3</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/2025osakaexpo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>2025osakaexpo</span></a></p>
The Japan Times<p>Even native Japanese speakers say they have trouble with "keigo," an honorific language with its own vocabulary and grammar. In response, the government has stepped in to outline the most common errors. <a href="https://www.japantimes.co.jp/life/2024/12/06/language/keigo-honorific-challenges-japanese/?utm_medium=Social&amp;utm_source=mastodon" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">japantimes.co.jp/life/2024/12/</span><span class="invisible">06/language/keigo-honorific-challenges-japanese/?utm_medium=Social&amp;utm_source=mastodon</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/life" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>life</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/language" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>language</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/nihongo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nihongo</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/vocabulary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>vocabulary</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/keigo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>keigo</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/grammar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>grammar</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/jlptn2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>jlptn2</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/jlptn1" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>jlptn1</span></a></p>
The Japan Times<p>Modern society tends to see quitting as a sign of weakness, but Buddhist teaching has extolled the benefits of letting go of something at the right time. <a href="https://www.japantimes.co.jp/life/2024/05/10/language/giving-up-buddhism-japanese-grammar-jlpt/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">japantimes.co.jp/life/2024/05/</span><span class="invisible">10/language/giving-up-buddhism-japanese-grammar-jlpt/</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/life" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>life</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/language" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>language</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/nihongo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nihongo</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/japanese" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>japanese</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/jlptn1" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>jlptn1</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/jlptn2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>jlptn2</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/jlptn3" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>jlptn3</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/grammar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>grammar</span></a></p>
The Japan Times<p>Certain Japanese grammatical structures can help enhance emotions in conversation and writing, conveying the idea of "unbearably." <a href="https://www.japantimes.co.jp/life/2024/04/25/language/children-japan-grammar-shikataganai-tamaranai/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">japantimes.co.jp/life/2024/04/</span><span class="invisible">25/language/children-japan-grammar-shikataganai-tamaranai/</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/life" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>life</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/language" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>language</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/vocabulary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>vocabulary</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/nihongo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nihongo</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/grammar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>grammar</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/jlptn1" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>jlptn1</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/jlptn2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>jlptn2</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/jlptn3" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>jlptn3</span></a></p>
The Japan Times<p>A social norm seems to persist in Japan that one should apologize first and explain later.
