Maybe "dekinai da yo" is a better change if you want to make it more emphatic. "Amari (yoku) dekimasen" seems to be more or less a set expression you don't often see other modifiers added to. I don't know exactly how "jitsu ni" sounds in Japanese but the English translation as "indeed" or "really" creates a sort of distant or more formal effect. Of course it'll be simply "kanji ga amari yomenai da yo!" once you learn the potential form...![]()
Heh heh... We have made life too difficult for ourselves... simply "amari yomenai" is indeed sufficient...
