Just wanted to post this in case anyone was confused. Khatzumoto, you’ve mistakenly written 謙譲語 twice, instead of 尊敬語 for respectful language, in the explanation of the last sentence.

It's just the second half of 危ない. There is no implied だ because 危ない by itself can fuction as the end of a sentence, as with most adjectives that end with い　（some adjectives that end in い、though, do need a だ as they are a different type of adjective altogether, like きれい、きらい、or とくい） That probably makes it as clear as mud, but basically, 危ない　functions as the end of sentence: nothing is implied at all. だ　is only required when there is a noun-phrase or a なーadjective (like those above) at the end of the sentence. I hope that helps a little bit. Sorry if I've just confused you. @Ryder

I get some value out of those tidbits of information that can explain a word's role in a sentence. It might go against your original theory but for some people it might be quite helpful. 1200 kanji to go... Consider yourself flogged… :)

I really should be taken out and flogged, but you have chosen kinder methods :). Perhaps it would be best to write less commentary with the sentences, that way there's fewer room for error; it's very important that these things be correct. Any suggestions? ddddave, thank you so much for the correction (it’s corrected now). I really should be taken out and flogged, but you have chosen kinder methods :) .

Q: 日本語を勉強して来ました

来る（くる） by itself means “to come”, but it’s often used as an auxiliary verb (so it’s “helping” the verb 渡る（わたる)

Isn’t it helping する?
