-# Main Point
-
-## ~みたいです -> Looks Like
-You can add ~みたいです after a non-polite verb, to say it looks like the verb happened. Can also stick after a past tense verb.
-
-Can also add after nouns。 Just stick it at the end, nothing special. It creates a sort of simile/metaphor situation.
-
-Note: Can not use this with adjectives alone. If you use it with Adjectives, its like your observing something else, not really making a metaphor. Which I guess is the same in English, it just carries stronger nuance here.
-
-If you want to use it for adjectives, and some nouns, we can use it like an observation, or hearsay. So its not a metaphor, its more like "looks like they are tired" instead of "they are tired like a bear" or something.

-
-## 前に (まえに) -> Before
-
-Use 前に after a clause to show the following sentence needs to happen before the first sentence. Verbs have to be in regular form, and we don't use past tense. Just regular non-polite form in the first clause.
-
-Don't need a long initial verb clause. Can just stick a noun, add の, and then add 前に, and its like "Before the noun..."
