Hello everyone, and welcome to our daily JLPT thread! The July tests are coming up quickly, so I thought we could have a daily thread where we discuss questions, or talk about what we’ve been practicing. In this thread I will also be sharing one graded grammatical structure every day, so feel free to use it for your own reference.

本日の文法：JLPTN1の「～極（きわ）まりない」

～きわまりない Is a very interesting structure that could translate to “extremely” or “as can be”.

A few example sentences for this could be

図書館で大声を出して騒ぐなんて、迷惑きわまりない。 “Speaking loudly and making a ruckus at a library is as annoying as it gets”

昨日、彼の態度は失礼きわまりない “His attitude yesterday was extremely rude”

This structure could be considered relatively similar in meaning to 「非常に」 though naturally the way it’s built is different. In this case you mostly just attach it to a noun. That makes it relatively easy to use! Remember that this is a relatively literary or formal structure, so you probably won’t be hearing it too much when speaking casually or colloquially.

Hope everybody has a very nice day studying for your upcoming test!
