Ep. 5: Kanji Tidbit

Oh, that's the word you were talking about. I like it. It fits.

I introduced kanji 園, (garden,) and 船, (ship) in the previous two episodes.

AThis is the third and final kanji story.

Combining the sentence from before with this.

I don’t have anymore.

Don't need this since you said "final" in the previous part.

Let’s start(Well,) shall we begin?

Another way of saying this.

Could we pleaseLet's imagine that we are in thea garden?

"Could we please" is asking the reader to do something. But since the reader is more or less expected to imagine the garden, it is better to just say "let's imagine." Less asking and more "we will be imagining the garden right now."

Now, you can see a tree (木).

It is ...located in the centre of the garden.

You can connect to the previous sentence like this.

Let me see, there isare two trees！(木, 木)

Use 'are' when using with multiple things.

Can you see that there are delicious-looking fruits are growing on the trees?

Hummm… looks nice forlike some good food.

Errrrr… Ccould I try just one please?

Okay, then I dwon’t.

Yes, we can’t eat thise fruits because ithis is prohibited

And here’s the creator 示.

Then, what kanji can you see?

Do you know the name of the trees, by the way?

Do you remember the two people inside the enclosure?

Actually, they ate the fruits, and had to leave the garden.

Now, the enclosure hais removed because they were expelled from the garden.

Connecting this with the one after.

袁 is hereThis is 袁.

NoSee, there is no more enclosure.

And 遠is here, has 辶 attached 辶.

遠 means distance.

辶 shows walking.

They must have gone foa far distance.

They walked far, far away from the garden.

Let’s revisione this now.

They were in the “garden”.”

Periods and commas go inside parenthsis.

They ate fruits from tree which was “forbidden”.”

They had to walk away long, long “distance” away from the garden.

Some recallseven resemble biblical storyies.

ItThese might be far-fetched storyies, but stillare interesting nonetheless.

"Nonetheless" is like saying "A but still true." "A but B nonetheless."

(This is not based on academic research. )

(But I want to whisper to you, “I Hhope you like it.”)

I introduced the kanji 園, (garden), and 船, the kanji 船 (ship), in previous two episodes.

purely stylistic, most sites that teach kanji online and/or textbooks use this type of sentence

This is the third, and final kanji story.

i couldn't find a method to merge two sentence into one here, sorry! this is how most people would write it, since having "and" at the beginning of a sentence is grammatically incorrect.

And final kanji story.

I don’t have any more.

Let’s start, shall we?

Could we pleaseLet's imagine that we are in thea garden?.

if it's a request, "please imagine" also works

Now, you can see a tree (木).

It is located in the centre of the garden.

Let me see, there isare two trees！(木, 木)

Can you see there are delicious-looking fruits are growing on the trees?

Hummm… looks nice for foodtasty.

tasty isn't the only word that can be used here, and it is pretty informal. another word is "delicious"

Shallould we eat it?

Okay, then I dwon’t.

Yes, we can’t eat thisose fruits because thisat is prohibited

And now, we go back to the first kanji 園.

Can you recallRemember that?

when native english speakers ask each other if they remember something, they usually don't say "can you". we just say "remember that" or "remember this". remember is also a much more common word than recall

Do you remember the two people inside the enclosure?

Actually, they ate the fruits, and had to leave the garden.

Now the enclosure has been removed.

Because they were expelled from the garden.

i would merge this sentence and the last one to say "Now the enclosure has been removed, because they were expelled from the garden." conjunctions like "and" and "because" don't go at the beginning of sentences, they are used to join two sentences or topics together.

NThere's no enclosure.

And 遠 is here, with 辶 attached 辶.

遠 means distance.

辶show means walk.

They must have gone for distanceaway.

They walked far, far away from the garden.

Let’s revisione now.

They ate fruits from the tree, which was “forbidden”.

They had to walk away long long “distance” away from the garden.

Some recallsference biblical storyies.

It might be a far-fetched story, but it's still interesting.

(This is not based on academic research. )

(But I want to whisper to you, “I Hhope you like it”)

I introduced kanji 園, garden, and 船, ship in the two previous two episodes.

I don’t have anymore.

This sentence is redundant.

Could we please imagine that we are in thea garden?

Now, in front of you, you can see tree (木).

Needs more information.

Let me see, there isare two trees！(木, 木)

Can you see there are delicious-looking fruits are growing on the trees?

Hummm… looks nice for foodto eat.

Okay, then I dwon’'t.

Yes, we can’t eat thisese fruits because this iit's prohibited.

And here’s the creator 示.

PHe put it under the tree.

Needs subject

Actually, they ate some fruits, and then had to leave the garden.

Now the enclosure has been removed.

辶shows means to walk.

They must have gone foar distanceaway.

Let’s revisione now.
