Today's word isn't always a bad thing, especially when well-intentioned. But when taken too far, it can sap a person's spirit. All things in good measure, right?
STRICT 厳しい、厳密な
- My piano teacher is very strict. She gets very upset if I don't practice.
- Our old boss was strict with us, but he was always fair.
- I went to a private school where they were very strict about things like table manners and clothes.
- a: My parents will ground me (= punish me by not letting me go out after school) if I get home late tonight.
b: Really? I didn't know your parents were so strict.
Have a terrific July Wednesday!
