Is it common to shorten 感じがする to 感じ?


Whilst it isn't always the case, I do occasionally see sentences that I think
would be written out in full as 感じがする as opposed to 感じ. Take the following
examples.

> お風呂って大好きなんです。心が休まる感じで  
>  心が休まる感じがするのでお風呂が大好きなんです

or

> 恋した時ってどんな感じがするんですか  
>  恋した時ってどんな感じなんですか

So my question is:

Is it relatively common in normal speech to abbreviate 感じがする＞感じ?(If this is
just me me misunderstanding and this isn't actually done, then please explain
the differences in meaning between two suitable sentences)




感じ(だ) is more colloquial than 感じがする, but I would say they're also slightly
different. 感じだ doesn't necessarily have something to do with feelings, e.g.

> そんな感じ(だ) (It's) something like that

Likewise 恋した時ってどんな感じなんですか _could_ be asking about other circumstances than
feelings, although feelings would be an obvious topic when talking about love:
"What's it like to fall in love" whereas 感じがする is asking more specifically
about feelings.

心が休まる感じで _could_ lean more towards the translation "it's like I become rested"
than "I feel rested".

It's hard to describe the difference with your examples, since they're already
talking about stuff that has to do with feelings. But you could imagine a
conversation like:

> 朝はどんな感じ？ What are your mornings like?  
>  起きて朝ごはんを食べて、急いで家を出る I wake up, eat breakfast and hurry out the door

where 感じがする would seem a bit unnatural.
