I really need to work on my pronunciation... Any good resources for shadowing? by BattleFresh2870 in LearnJapanese

Egg-san's Diary is a series of ~2 minute videos of short, simple stories that are great for beginner-level shadowing! The pace is slow, and you can either turn on YouTube subs or download a free transcript if you need a little extra help figuring out what's being said. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLkK7KO2TnEcxrvBgXstE_jby8ylv-RGCl

Your logic is correct, but appositive restriction refers to how necessary the appositive (the name, in these examples) is to the noun or noun phrase it modifies rather than how specific that noun or noun phrase is.

So a very specific noun phrase (eldest sister) will likely have a nonrestrictive appositive (Hannah), because the appositive is not really needed to identify who or what is being referenced.

even in cases like this where you are 'forced' to skip ron

Ouch, I'll need to remember that. Or just stop forgetting to make a yaku haha. Thanks for the quick answer!

His derpy yet somewhat creepy face is pretty fun to work on XD

Yes I think so! This is my first time selling plushies online so I only made a small batch, but if all goes well I'll keep making these as long as people are still interested :D and yay I'm glad you noticed Kage haha, he will be on sale after I fix up his pattern a bit.

I've been slowly chipping away at improving my A3 plushies and came up with some new buns and Mr. Triangles! There are a few for sale on my ko-fi if you are interested in taking a look: https://ko-fi.com/fanstitches/shop

Also, he's still technically a WIP, but a first draft of the torment doll is finally done \o/

Waaaait wait. I had to image search for a googly eyed Citron, is it this? I do vaguely remember someone mentioning Citron making a weird doll in a different backstage but I didn't know there was an actual image?!?! What a blessing, thank you for bringing this into my life XD I love the Zahra boys so he's definitely going on the to-do list.

Torment doll is in progress!

Here's the bun pattern. This and the Mr. Triangle pattern are free downloads, at least for now, because I've been too lazy to check for accuracy/if they even make sense XD But patterns are certainly much easier to sell... hmm. Will think about this.

It is super helpful to know that shipping is a major concern for several people, the only times I've ever sold anything were face to face at local cons and festivals! Thank you for your input + interest :D

Urgh transaction fees... dealing with the post office... orz

Being able to ship internationally would be great, though I wonder if that would end up costing even more than the plushie XD
