I feel for you bro.

What part of this sentence differentiates between "her breaking up with me" VS "me breaking up with her"??

[Leo240]

彼女は私とわかれました is the opposite

[Luca71308]

In case the other comment isn't clear enoug: this answer uses the speaker as the implied subject. When we want to reverse the action, however, we now have to specify ourself in the sentence as who was 'broken up with'.

This from a relative noob to the language, I'd appreciate it if anyone more versed than me would correct any mistakes I've made.

The "to" after girlfriend indicates she was the one who was broken up with, as "to" here means "with".

Very happy for seeing that you are introducing kanjis in this lesson

Should 去年私は彼女と別れました be accepted?

Isnt there し before ました...
去年 彼女と別れしました

[BenJaguarM]

I put in 「去年、僕の彼女と別れました」and it was marked wrong.
I've submitted it as an issue, but is my sentence actually correct?

[C5b62]

昨年私は彼女と別れましたは不正解でした。

[BenJaguarM]

I'm guessing the phrase "I broke up with her last year" is also a valid translation of the Japanese.

itsjustsneha asked this question seven months ago, but as it has still not been answered, I'd like to rephrase it. Is there a difference between 別れしました and 別れました?

I think i have done right. But it says wrong
