#120 Our favourite mistakes: Grammar
โถ๏ธ Please translate the following sentence:
Armiyaga borganingizda, vazn yo'qotishingiz mumkin.
โ Perhaps you think it is:
When you go to army you may lose your weight.
โ Well, it should be:
When you go to the army you may lose weight.
โWhy?
โ๏ธ Like the government, we can assume that there is only one army in one country. Thatโs why we should use the definite article the before army.
โ๏ธ Lose your weight sounds like youโre losing all of it. That wouldnโt be good. You can either lose some weight or just lose weight, without the determiner.

What is Chris not getting about Japanese culture?
Ouch!
๐ก๐ฏ๐ต Japanese work culture is quite peculiar (=strange in an interesting and surprising way). A lot of people are โsalarymanโ โ someone who works many years for the same company, typically in an office, and devotes (=dedicate, give everything) even their free time to the company, including nights out (=going to bars or discos in the evening). The Japanese government tries to persuade people to leave the office at a normal time and take more days off but employees often feel ashamed and donโt want to seem lazy.
