| Comments:
| eastmaels | shouldn't the translation of example #3376 be like: "He CAN'T even read, let alone write." | | dc | changed, tx. BTW - feel free to edit/correct examples. thats what the edit button is for! | | Miki | dc how can we edit modify examples? In re-design version, I cannot. Are there more columns next to user name of each entry? | | dc | miki - hmm. i will look into it... | | bamboo4 | There are other examples in this batch that requires finetuning. Think, DC! | | Miki | #3384 should be without ひ after 自転車. 彼女は自転車はもちろんオートバイにも乗れない。
| | dc | miki - are you still unable to edit examples? I fixed the commented one above (also the translation was wrong). | | dc | I thought we fixed that. apologies, will look into it. | | tenkamuteki82 | Is this read as "Ha Mochiron" or "Wa Mochiron"? | | tigert | I noticed in all the examples the はもちろん is followed by a 〜も statement.
is the も required to make this statement valid? | | foggynotion | Just spotted in example [#6617]: 「スポッツ」。Should that be 『スポーツ』 かな? | | nazonatte69 | Why is #3382's example note 研究 and not 勉強? | | Ruskin | #8169 #8170 #8171 and #8174 are just examples of the word もちろん, rather than the grammar pattern. | | |
