Line 9:
Many of these corrections have been collected by ijo Son - thanks!
=== Day 2 -
* "jan ike" doesn't always mean "enemy", and only means "enemy" if it's a person (because of the "jan").
Line 27:
* "A la B", in general, means "in the context of A, B". This can be used for if-then statements, time-marking, and more, as discussed in the video.
===
* you don't have to avoid having your name sounding like an official word if you don't want to.
* "akesi" really means "reptile" or "amphibian"
===
* "anpa" can also mean "bottom" or "area below", and "lon anpa" is used much more commonly than "lon noka" for below.
===
* "a" does not mean "so". it is just a particle used for emphasis. it can be used in a similar way to "so", but it has no meaning; it's just emphasis.
* jan Misali repeated "len" here. replace "len" with "supa", meaning "flat (horizontal) surface" (e.g. furniture)
===
* "kin", "oko", and "namako" are usually not the exact same as "a", "lukin", and "sin" respectively. You don't have to know the exact differences between them, but know that they are often not interchangeable. when in doubt, use "a", "lukin", and "sin".
