Almost

Culture ~The key to having fun!~

Almost

Seems like an easy word, but
Japanese people make a common
mistake with it!!

"When I went to the party,
almost Japanese were there."

"Almost desserts in America
are too sweet."

If you put the object after
the word almost, it means that
the object is not that, but close.


For example:

"She is almost human."

"It is almost spring."





All

When you want to talk
about the ratio or percentage
of a group, use the word all,
after almost or use the word
everyone!

" Almost all Japanese People
think American sweets are
way too sweet."

"Almost everyone thinks that
she is really cute."




The opposite expression of "almost all,"
is "almost none or almost no."
