My friend came from the Republic of Côte d'Ivoire.

He gave me the cold shoulder.

He was able to find a solution from a difficult situation.

He said, 'See Naples and die,' and went on a trip to Italy.

I was surprised by his shabby clothes.

I came, I saw, and I won.

He was gazing at the distant mountains.

Himiko is my best friend.

He always tries to make judgments based on the long run.

After he solved the problem, he said, 'It's like seeing the true form of a ghost or a withered silver grass,' meaning things are not as scary as they seem.
