ヒントとコツ (4)

💡

Keep it simple

Don't overcomplicate. Stick to SVO.
frontend.learn_grammar.from_rule: Subject-Verb-Object Order
💡

Start with the verb

When in doubt, start your sentence with the action. It's the most natural way to speak.
frontend.learn_grammar.from_rule: Subject Omission
💡

The People Rule

Always use 'Pen' when talking about people and their roles.
frontend.learn_grammar.from_rule: Copula 'Pen' and 'Mae'
💡

Keep it flat

Mee has a mid-tone. Don't let your voice rise or fall too much.
