    Sorry for my voice! I filmed this when I was ill ;;
    This time we'll learn how to say "to be like" in Japanese.

    Find out what the differences are!
    ◆ "らしい" as "apparently" / "I've heard"...
    • ②そう & らしい I've heard /...
    ◆ What does "ようとする" mean?
    • てみる vs ようとする "TRY / AT...

      She is really good. A lot of books won't really teach you these minute differences. I've kind of internalized some of them but it's nice to have the differences directly explained so you can know for sure.

      I didn't know about the nuances about らしい either

    I learned this from Neon Genesis Evangelion op: "zankoku na tenshi no you ni, shounen yo shinwa ni nare"
    as a matter of fact, this song is the one that motivated me to learn Japanese cos I noticed how simple the grammatical construction was
    I looked up lessons on youtube and I stumbled upon Misa-sensei's channel, and the rest is history

Only Misa sensei can dissect the nuances of Japanese, incredibly useful skills for daily conversation. Thank you

    You're the best Japanese teacher of all time. I've reached a point where my struggles with Japanese language are defined by details (such as the differences pointed in this video, and also some "daily life" grammatical structures that I didn't learn in regular courses, like "んじゃない" or "ちゃう", that you also showed in other videos). Your channel is helping me A LOT. Thank you very much!! I'm starting to get my confidence back in Japanese language.

    Outside of expressions, there is 似ている, which is a verb that just means "to resemble". It's the continuous form of the verb 似る, but I suppose for these purposes you would want to use the continuous form.
