He amazed me by spontaneously using words that native English speakers would, and in a nonchalant manner, just after a year of his effort to leave his comfort zone of being a mediocre English speaker. Does this make sense?
①He sounds petty! I don't want to be like him! ②I know this is kind of forward, but is there any way you could teach me English? Actually, I want to speak English like you. If you can't, I totally understand.
It is obnoxious to wear strong perfume to a restaurant where people enjoy wine. Because wine is to be enjoyed not only for its taste but also for its aroma.🍷
When I parked my car in Azabu Juban and was about to go to an English lesson, One woman said to me, "I know this is a bit forword, but I'm in a hurry and need to give up my parking spot there.🚗 However, since I was also late for the lesson, I declined the woman's request and headed to the lesson.💨

I don't cover all the movies ever created before. I vividly remember the word "mediocre " because "pretty mediocre photographic fakery" was translated like ピンぼけ写真. That's when I knew the japanese subtitles were not exact translations of the original English lines. They just give the audience some hint as to what is going on in the movie.

One of my coworkers is so obnoxious to say that my favorite band is tacky during business dinner. But I tried to be nonchalant as I didn’t want to seem petty.
I know a man who is petty. He is obsessed with being clean. He is nonchalant, he isn't laugh so much. I'm not a big fan of him, but he isn't a mediocre singer. He is very talented and fashionable. He has never worn tacky clothes.
The quality of artificial flowers has improved, but they are tackier than fresh flowers.🍀 For this reason, I try to use fresh flowers as much as possible in my florist work.💐 If I have no choice but to use non-fresh flowers due to the need to reduce the frequency of maintenance, I use dried flower or driftwood instead of artificial flowers.🪵

I've been using matching apps. Some guys gave me advice as follows: Tacky selfie and mediocre profile look complacent. Don't ask about girls too much forward. Nonchalant reply looks obnoxious and petty. Pay attention to a possessive woman. Oops, I am married !
In these years,,, No. In these decades, peoples have been nonchalant about politics and their own government. Especially in Japan. Japanese people have become complacent after high economic growth, and majority of Japanese people become careless about government. So many Japanese politicians are forward to increase the money in their own bank account exploiting their position. Such politicians look not obnoxious but their mind is surely obnoxious as you can tell by LGBT law that is extremely harmful for our society will go into force. In so many countries include Japan and Australia, the governments have been possessive more and more against civilians. We the people have to wake up and quit to be nonchalant otherwise our corrupt governments kick us into the hell of communism.
@@nicwilliamson 良かった😮、伝えたいことは伝わったんですね。😲 っとは言っても、辞書とかDEEPLE翻訳使って、自分で添削しながら作った分なので、スラスラ言えるにはまだまだ努力が必要な状態ですけど。。😅 I'm glad, you could understand what I wanted to tell you. Tell the truth, I used dictionary and DEEPLE Translation for correction by myself, so, I need much more effort to say what I want to tell fluently in English.
What a petty you are. I don't want to discuss this any further if you are going to split hairs. He's a kind of person that he has a calculator in his head and that is always functioning. He's petty. I don't want to be a bit forward but would you mind if I ask about your background. He doesn't care about whatever he has. Everything he has is tacky. I do one hour work out every single morning so that my back trouble won't be worse, but I got complacent this morning, and I got hurt on my back very much. Talking about your mom in front of someone who lost someone's mom recently is obnoxious. When I asked my son what he thinks about my new girlfriend, he gave me a nonchalant answer. No wonder why he was. When I was a kid, I was really possessive. Whatever toys my parents served us was monopolized me. I went to a steak house last week. That restaurant was really expensive but the taste was mediocre. I will never going back to the restaurant again.
One of my friends is quite petty. One day, I offered him a ride in my car. During the journey, he asked me to lower the air flow because he felt the wind on his face was too strong. Considering the rainy weather and the fact that the air flow selector was already at its lowest level, I suggested adjusting the direction of the air conditioner vent. He changed the direction of the airflow, but he still complained that it wasn't enough. I mentioned that I didn't want the window to fog up. Then he expressed his disapproval with a groan. Some customers can be quite forward when they visit a shop. They often ask numerous inquiries about the products or seek detailed information while browsing in the shop. However, instead of making a purchase at the shop, they opt to buy the items online. Some CZcamsrs buy tacky products and express exaggerated dissatisfaction to attract attention. While I understand that this may be viewed as a type of entertainment, I personally believe it is a wasteful use of both time and resources. Often, purchasing products brings temporary happiness to individuals, but this excitement is short-lived, even when they purchase excellent products. Material possessions cannot fill the void within oneself. People seem to be either unaware or unconsciously resistant to acknowledging this, leading them to repeatedly purchase products and express dissatisfaction. Consequently, this kind of performance by CZcamsrs attracts attention from a large audience. TV show 'Shikujiri Sensei' offers many examples of mistakes made by famous people. However, most of the stories follow a similar pattern. Once individuals achieve remarkable success, many of them become complacent and lose their hunger and modesty. Subsequently, their stories of downfall begin. Most of us are familiar with this pattern, as it appears in numerous novels, fairy tales, and old tales. However, the majority of people cannot avoid falling into this pitfall. Why is that? It's because we cannot predict the emotions and sensations that arise when we find ourselves in such a situation. We think we can control our behavior but it is uncertain. It is culture-dependent to determine what is considered obnoxious. For instance, individuals living in Kyoto tend to express their needs in a more indirect manner. However, those from Tokyo often communicate more directly. Consequently, people in Kyoto may perceive the direct communication style of individuals from Tokyo as obnoxious, leading them to express their feelings indirectly. In turn, individuals from Tokyo might misinterpret this indirect expression as praise, reinforcing their inclination for direct communication. While watching the movie "The Great Escape," I came across a particularly interesting scene. In this scene, an American soldier, portrayed by Steve McQueen, and an English soldier, who is more formal in nature, engage in a discussion about their plan to escape from a prisoner of war camp. As expected, Steve McQueen's character maintains his typical nonchalant attitude throughout the conversation, leading to an awkward yet humorous interaction between the two soldiers. Young children often exhibit possessive behavior. Sharing toys can be challenging for them. They may engage in conflicts over a toy, but often lose interest in it shortly afterward. My friend took me to a ramen shop. He mentioned that he loved the place. However, I found the taste of the ramen to be mediocre. Despite this, I didn't want to disappoint him, so I had to pretend that I was satisfied with the taste. In reality, the ramen wasn't terrible; the issue was that my expectations were too high.
I went twice to facial hair removal. I really needed to go it about 5 times, but I couldn't stand the pain and I got complacent because it was a little thinner. After a while, I went back to my original beard.🥸
