This is excellent. I’ve been brute forcing my way through Aozora Bunko 江戸川乱歩, 甲賀三郎, and 芥川龍之介 stories and I believe 妙な話 would have been much more 妙 if they had received your Sleep Story treatment. I appreciate the huge amount of work that goes into the “Story with Definitions”. So, a big “Thank you!” for whoever is creating the detailed vocabulary and grammar notes. I think Yumi could go head to head with ふじた のりこ. You go, Yumi! Enter that contest next year! And “Thank you!” to the rest of your team who likely rarely get thanked: tech guy, grammarian, prefecture tour guide, store manager where we buy T-shirts. . . The Japanese Page certainly has grown! Hang in there! [I’m still awake, so I’m going to read some more now. . .].
Haha–thank you, John! Yumi enjoys doing these stories (as well as her Nihongo no Tane podcast) since it is basically what she used to do for a living as a radio DJ/host. I (Clay) enjoy it too because it is a great excuse to work on advanced level material.
So, we are having fun–all thanks to your support. 🙂
