こんばんは！
Japanese daily life podcast のAtsushiです。
このPodcastは、日本語を勉強しているみなさんに向けたPodcastです。

今日はN2です！


〜きり、です。
ーしてからずっと、と言いたい時に使います。

では例文で確認しましょう！


・3年前に日本に行ったきり、まだ行っていません。

・卒業したきり、大学の友達とは一度も会っていません。

・あの2人は海外旅行に行ったきり、そのままいろんな国をまわっているらしい。

・彼は電話をしに外に出たきり、帰ってきません。

・何年か前に読んだきりで、最近本は全然読んでません。


こんな感じですね。

ーのあとずっと、みたいな感じで使いますね。
ずっとの時間の長さはいろいろあります。話す人が長いと感じていればーきりは使えます。

日本には5年前に行ったきりなので、行きたいです！
など使いやすいですので、みなさんもぜひ使ってみてください！


ということで、今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！

ではまた！
