--- Comments ---
I would have called this entry simply , the same you did with . For me, the
level is JPLT3 rather than JPLT2. The examples I added are caught from
JPLT3 list of vocabulary and grammar points which appears in past
examination papers (http://www.mlcjapanese.co.jp/DownloadF/3-all.pdf).

then I forget to follow my own advice lolol thanks. (contributor: tigert)

Nasuさんへ Thanks for your translation. I modified my example according
to your alert. In my contribution, the Japanese sentence use to be copied
from other sites or from books, but the English one is mine, and my English
will be improving all time but very slowly, because I don't use English
outside of this site. Feel free to modify all my English sentences and mark
them 'neutral' after. But keep in mind that a literally translated sentence
is easier to understand in a scholar point of view. Tae Kim said it in
http://www.guidetojapanese.org/start.html :
'the English translations for the examples will also be as literal as
possible to convey the Japanese sense of the meaning'. (contributor:
