I think it is read as "itsumade" not itumade in romaji. There's no particle "tu" in both hiragana and katakana, though.

Hi Ayane-chan,

You are so right! It is "itsumade" instead of "itumade". Thank you for this correction! I will edit it :)

Yeah, no problem. I'm thinking of writing learning articles for studying Japanese, too since I've been studying it for ages now. Hahaha.

This series has potential, although I think, in my honest opinion the structure could be improved. First, this is more than a phrase already, it's a full blown sentence. It might be hard to grasp all at once. Second, the vocabulary could use some Romaji. Not everyone could read Hiragana. But overall, this is good, could be better, but good.

Cheers!

Hi meitanteikudo,

Honest opinions are always welcome to improve this series!! Thank you very much for commenting!

I will choose shorter phrases, well, a shorter sentence ;)) That is true that it becomes too difficult to grasp the content if it is too long. You are right! Plus, I will use some Romaji in the vocabulary as well. Good opinion!
