書きかけた is incorrect, and should be 書きかけだ.
(contributor: bamboo4)
飲み かけた is incorrect and should be 飲みかけの (contributor:
bamboo4)
読み かけた means 'just started to read' and does not have the context
of 'I didn't finish reading it' which would be 読み終えなかった.
(contributor: bamboo4)
corrections made, thanks! (contributor: dc)
書きかけた does seem to be a valid (if low) usage - 3,000 Google hits
compared to
(書きかけ -書きかけた)'s 27,600.
Do 飲みかけ, 書きかけ etc belong in the same entry as
読みかけた ? (contributor: Amatuka)
I suppose 読みかけた doesn't have the nuance of
読み終えなかった - because that would imply that you probably
aren't going to finish it. (contributor: Amatuka)
Presumably they are all based on
かける (aux-v,v1) to turn on; to dial (e.g. phone); to start doing
something (but not finish) (contributor: Amatuka)
Maybe this entry should be changed to 'かける - To start (but not
finish) something' with the noun + past tense verb form noted in comments.
(contributor: Amatuka)
I think this has two meanings:
1. to start (but not finish)
2. to almost start (contributor: dc)
also
食べかけた（時に、、、）
is different from
食べかけの+noun (contributor: dc)
食べかけの is simply the noun form of 食べかける with の acting
as a modifier. I think there is no difference in meaning between
'食べかけたケーキ' and '食べかけのケーキ' (although the
latter is much more common). (contributor: your name)
as someone else pointed out the かけた in 話しかけた is nothing
to do with this grammar, it's a set phrase
彼は私に話しかけた。
'he started to talk to me' (contributor: dc)
this might fall into a category of verb endings, including -dashita
(contributor: dc)
I'm still not convinced of 'to almost start' as distinct from 'to start
(but not finish)' although there are cases where both could be used in
translations of sentences using かけた. (contributor: Amatuka)
私はケーキを 食べ かけた should be 私が (contributor:
bamboo4)
Made the change by deleting 私は in #1612. Not need in the context.
(contributor: bamboo4)
The english in ex#1082 is really awkward. I think it should be 'Whose is
this half-eaten bento box?' (contributor: CorDarei)
you're right, that is a literal translation...trying to keep the same order
as the japanese. out of style i guess on this site, so i moved it to the
notes section. (contributor: dc)
not yet tho! (contributor: dc)
what would you say this means kaketa arnou i have taken the spelling off
something heard so it is probably incorect
(contributor: rudy)
This is a Level 2 grammar point. (contributor: Olivier)
の in 食べかけの is a nominalizer, which makes a noun phrase out of
食べかけ(started to eat but not yet finished). (contributor: bamboo4)
