@chocolate おおお。この機能全然知らなかったです！

What is the correct particle? 先輩は僕（に/を）あの女性に近寄らせたがらない。

@YasashiiEirian 「を」かな・・

「僕をあの女性に近寄らせる」だし

@chocolate arigatou.

@chocolate: What is the meaning of the non-past negative verb in Japanese? For example, 食べない。　It means that I will not eat (in the future) or I don't eat (from the past to the future)?

I think it can mean both, but I'd lean towards the former.

japanese.stackexchange.com/questions/34276 Would 近づかせる make sense here?

@YasashiiEirian I think you're putting too many suffixes to things. I find those sentences really complicated to read. They make sense, I suppose, but I don't think anyone'd say those out loud.

I'd at least prefer 〜近寄らせたくない（ようだ・らしい） over 〜がる

Anyway, 〜がる is pretty rare. (Though I admit that much of my exposure to the Japanese language comes from manga and light novels and similar. Not real life.)

@snailplane Completely unrelated to Japanese at all but, have you seen the (animation) movie epic (2013)? I am asking because it stars a snail (not in the first role) but that snail is clearly one of the reasons why this movie is enjoyable.

I hope you will enjoy it.

〜がる is not rare-rare, but it seems from my POV that it's eclipsed by a handful of other ways of saying 'it seems'

(And I know 〜がる does not mean 'it seems'...)

@YasashiiEirian 「食べない。」つうたら。。

両方かな

"I will not eat (in the future)" と、"I don't eat (regularly/habitually)"

みたいな・・？

It can be used for both..

japanese.stackexchange.com/questions/34248/… eh, teen slang? I don't think so...

coordisnap.com Hmm, so コーデ is a shortening of コーディネート even though the pronunciation changes? A little surprising.

@chocolate: Arigatou gozaimashita.

@kuchitsu If you are talking about my comment, that is not what I meant at all. I meant to say that it is indeed used in real life because an answerer stated that it was only used on the internet. It is also true that young people use i\the word far more often than adults. Trust me, I know what I am talking about.
