<stem>かける grammar point?


I was told that かける means "almost ", as seen here in 殺されかけた. Is this anywhere on Bunpro? I couldn’t find it

Your avatar is from Mellow Dream by Ryo Fukui right? I remember listening to the album when I first started learning Japanese (Hiragana and Katakana) three years ago. It still reminds me of that.

I specifically remember when I looked through his discography and there was this album “My Favorite Tune”, which nobody had a known copy of and was impossible to find on the internett. However, after years of searching, somebody actually got access to the album through his wife in Japan, and Marcel the Drunkard at Youtube published it. It made a pretty good story and the album and Ryo Fukui got pretty popular at the internett-jazz scene.
