Hi Bunsuke, thank you so much for this fantastic newsletter. It's pretty much the only reading practice I do nowadays, given my low motivation levels these days.
I have a question regarding the first line - I don't understand the purpose of なんでも here. Is it to give it a sense of 'countless times'? Apologies if it is a silly question.
Hi Gee, really glad to hear the newsletter helps to keep you going. I think many of us struggle to find motivation these days.
This is not a silly question, I actually forgot to put this in my translation. なんでも in this case means "it seems", indicating uncertainty or speculation. If you wanted to say many times it would be 何度も（なんども）but here this is already captured in the 度々. Thanks for pointing this out!
