kanji feel like branded versions of the same syllable, idk if this is making sense

so i'm going through some exercises, and translating "[The elephant] is breaking the shed that I painted yesterday" into Japanese turns the word order into "Re: elephant, [it] I-yesterday-painted shed breaking-is" do you get used to thinking this way? i really miss "X that Y" elaboration

this seems pretty great too, don't know if it's inspired by cure dolly or not but it uses the same method [8020japanese.com](

hmm pretty sure there's a mistake in lesson 3 worksheet example. the example shows [American] in the question but the answer below is consistent with [I] being in the brackets https://morel.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:fpruhuo22xkm5o7ttr2ktxdo&cid=bafkreied2pjmfs3xipfov7nam7xs5ctfnr3ct6ldqv65nbdatatgx2rhfu

a few lessons and exercises in, cure dolly so far is amazing. there are clever opinionated choices from the first lesson that pay off really fast, reminds me a lot of what i did in justjavascript some may be overly opinionated but even if there are flaws, this is very strong teaching imo
