Thanks. I don't think that "impetuous" and せっかちな are exactly the same. Here's the Longman definition and an example sentence:
返信削除"tending to do things very quickly, without thinking carefully first, or showing this quality: "She might live to regret this impetuous decision."
Can you see how this is different from せっかちな?
"Legend" is a little bit different from "history". Please try looking up "legend" in the Longman dictionary.
返信削除Also, "impetuous" is different from せっかちな. Try looking this word up in Longman too.
Thank you for comment.
