Synopsis from 2025-12-11 Class

This week's lesson covered two main grammar points:

~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").
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.
