Through my personal experiences, I shed light on the impact of this phenomenon on both Japanese learners and native speakers.

Language evolves with time, and through this episode, let's rediscover the depth and beauty of the Japanese language together! ⁠📝⁠⁠⁠Blog Post(Transcript)⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠:　https://sayurisaying.com/ranuki-words-japanese-potential-verbs/ If you'd like to support this podcast, please consider donating here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://ko-fi.com/sayurisaying⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🙏
