こんにちは、ちか先生です。
Konnichiwa, it’s Chika Sensei.
Today, I’m sharing a practice question for JLPT prep.
This one’s for pre-advanced learners (JLPT N2)!
Can you choose the correct answer?
[Practice Question]
長く座っていたので、足が（＿＿）。
*ながくすわっていたので、あしが（＿＿）。
1 こわれた
2 しびれた
3 ちぢんだ
4 とまった

[Answer]
長く座っていたので、足が（2 しびれた）。
I was sitting for a long time, so my legs went numb.
しびれる
= to go numb / to have pins and needles
Sitting for a long time
→ blood flow gets poor
→ your leg goes numb
So, しびれた is the best answer.
✖ Other Choices:
1 こわれた（壊れた）
= “broke”
We use it for things (a phone, a machine).
3 ちぢんだ（縮んだ）
= “shrank”
It means the size became smaller (like clothes).
4 とまった（止まった）
= “stopped”
足が止まる often means “to stop walking” (you stopped moving).
I hope this explanation helps! 😊
