Japanese Language 「Adjectives and Adverbs」 「Adj tari + (Adj) nakattari suru ~たり~なかったりする」 "Sometimes∼and sometimes not∼" The use of the tari form of an i- or na-adjective followed by the negative form of the same adjective, plus the verb suru, indicates that a pair of opposite states are at work. Examples: このレポートのデータは正しかったり(正しく)なかったりする。 Kono repōto no dēta wa tadashikattari (tadashiku) nakattari suru. The data in this report is sometimes correct and sometimes not (correct). 今年の春は暖かった理(暖かく)なかったりした。 Kotoshi no haru wa atatakakattari (atatakaku) nakattari shita. This past spring was at times warm and at times not (warm). 彼の仕事に対する態度は積極的だったり(積極的で)なかったりします。 Kare no shigoto ni taisuru taido wa sekikyokuteki dattari (sekikyokuteki de) nakattari shimasu. His attitude toward his work is sometimes positive and sometimes not (positive). Hope this helps! じゃまたね! °˖ ✧◝(○ ヮ ○)◜✧˖ °こゆうきあいはら°˖ ✧◝(○ ヮ ○)◜✧˖ °
