# Synopsis from 2025-12-11 Class

This week's lesson covered two main grammar points:

1.  **~みたいです (Looks Like):**
    *   Used to create similes or make observations.
    *   Can be used with verbs (plain form), nouns, and adjectives.
    *   With nouns, it creates a metaphor ("like a computer").
    *   With verbs and adjectives, it's more of an observation ("looks like he is tired").

2.  **前に (Before):**
    *   Indicates that one action happens before another.
    *   Used with a verb in its dictionary form or a noun with `の`.
    *   The verb in the `前に` clause is always non-past, non-polite.
