  There is a line in 耳をすませば (Whisper of the Heart) that uses this, but slightly different.

  Here’s the line:
  雫スタンドちゃんと消しな昨日つけっ放しだったよ。

  This doesn’t follow the same form as the grammar point, but it seems to mean the same thing.

  Could anyone help me understand?

  Edit: right after posting, I saw that the title of this thread has this version, but the grammar point doesn’t mention it. Do we know why?

  Edit 2: I looked again, and this form is used in the second example sentence in the write-up (though it is not highlighted), but there’s no explanation about the difference between the forms.

  @Daru

  Edit 3: Just realized that I just wasn’t understanding the kanji usage. I thought the なし was a type of negative, but the な is just part of the kanji reading lol

  I’ll leave this post up just because that one part of the sentence could be highlighted, but the rest I understand now, haha

  I just want to share this great video - it’s actually an ad - for memorizing っぱなし:

  Indeed it is!
  It would be nice to include this in the resources, somehow!
