Oh my God, Robert Patrick is not dead and lay a new article on the Japanese method that has not affected since a million years! Champagne!
level grammar, you now know how to say you're hungry or thirsty, so you can survive in Japan.
We will see today an expression that you would not necessarily occurred to verify, but if you needed one day I promise you, a gaijin who uses it class.
expression is 元 を 取る (もと を とる), which means "cushion" in the sense of "profitable".
For example: if I take an orange card (for my non-readers in Paris, the orange card is a monthly pass pour prendre les transports RATP / SNCF), au bout de combien d'allers-retours par semaine l'aurai-je rentabilisée? Pareil pour une carte de cinéma, un abonnement Rapidshare, etc.
Tu m'as compris.
Ex : If all you can eat Pizza Hut menu, the yuan would take if you eat much? Combien de pizzas faut-il manger pour que le menu "à volonté" devienne rentable?
Voilà voilà. Comme grammaticalement on a vu tout ce dont tu as besoin pour avoir les moyens d'en apprendre plus, I think I'll focus now on what kind of expressions, unless I come across something super useful / important, in which case, of course, you'll receive a real lesson.
