There is a sentence missing in the 4th text’s translation. The second sentence isn’t translated.
I just noticed that some passages have pretty informative notes! That’s awesome, but I feel like they are a bit hidden. Especially since they are not available for all passages. It would be great if their availability was more obvious, even if the default is to have them hidden.
In the translation given for the last passage under the topic ”両親の仕事についてはなしています”
’お皿洗いはしなかった’ is translated as ‘he won’t wash the dishes’, but isn’t ない conjugated into past form here? In the greater context of the sentence “he didn’t wash the dishes” doesn’t really make sense, so shouldn’t it be しない instead of しなかった？
