Things to remember

• Mike Cash's post regarding ように見える.
• Yudan's post regarding い type adjectives with き ending.
• Do (verb1)　 instead of 　(verb 2) ing 　　(V2)　もせずに　(V1)　している。
• が in negative sentences.
• 「… ということです(よ)ね。」 (… ってことです(よ)ね) is useful phrase. When you think you understand what the speaker said but still need to confirm his/her intention, ですよね/ですね is used. If you are still not sure what the speaker meant, ということですか? is suitable.
• Basically か is pretty rough when used in plain sentences. だい and かい are a bit less harsh. Note that かい is for yes/no questions while だい is for what/who/which type 'wh' questions.
• ということ in this case means "means". 風が強くなったということは嵐が来るかもしれない。 The wind getting stronger must mean a storms a-brewin'.
