Tomorrow, I will go to Tokyo to meet a friend.

A

Tomorrow, I will go to Tokyo to meet a friend.
明日友達に会いに東京へ行きます。
あしたともだちにあいにとうきょうへいきます。
Ashita tomodachi ni ai ni Tōkyō e ikimasu.
Tomorrow, I will go to Tokyo to meet a friend.
As you can see here, “Tōkyō e” has been inserted between “ai ni” and “ikimasu.” This is
because, in Japanese, parts of the sentence can be moved around and still retain the
same meaning as long as they remain marked by the appropriate particle. Here, “Tōkyō”
is marked by the “e” particle, and can be moved around in the sentence as a unit. For
example:

明日友達に東京へ会いに行きます。
あしたともだちにとうきょうへあいにいきます。
Ashita tomodachi ni Tōkyō e ai ni ikimasu.
In the above sentence, the “Tōkyō e” unit has been placed in front of “ai ni ikimasu,” and
the sentence retains its original meaning.

急いでいるから、タクシーでもいいです。

A

急いでいるから、タクシーでもいいです。
Isoide iru kara, takushī demo ii desu.
I am in a hurry, so a taxi is alright.

In contrast, when -te mo ii used with the negative te-form of a verb, it means that the
subject does not have to do something, or it is alright if the subject is not someone/
something.

For example:
今日、学校に行かなくてもいいですか。
Kyō, gakkō ni ikanakute mo ii desu ka?
Is it all right if I don’t go to school today?
Furthermore, more polite expressions, such as “yoroshii” and “kamaimasen,” can be used
in place of “ii” to make the phrase more polite.
For e xample :

窓を開けてもよろしいですか。
Mado o akete mo yoroshii desu ka?
Would it be all right to (May I) open the window?

195
Q

〜たら
“Tara” is a subordinate conjunction which indicates that the events in the subordinate.
corresponds to “when”, “if” and “after”.

A

〜たら
“Tara” is a subordinate conjunction which indicates that the events in the subordinate
clause occur, or may occur, after the event in the main clause. In English, this roughly
corresponds to “when”, “if” and “after”.

S1 tara S2 (Subordinate clause)tara (main clause)
Depending on usage, the “tara” construction, when used with verbs, can lead to
ambiguous sentences. Consider the following:

ジョンが来たら、私は帰ります。
Jon ga kitara, watashi wa kaerimasu.
If/when John comes, I will go home.
From this sentence alone, we cannot know if the speaker knows that John will come, and
is waiting for him so that the speaker can go home, or if he doesn’t like John, and
therefore will go home if he comes.
If one uses “tara” together with “moshi,” this ambiguity disappears.

もしジョンが来たら、私は帰ります。
Moshi Jon ga kitara, watashi wa kaerimasu.
If John comes, I will go home.

Conjugating negetive verbs

A 
In order to form the plain non-past
negative of class two verbs, drop the "ru" and add "nai." For class one verbs, change the
last syllable from the "u" column to the a column and add "nai." There is one exception,
though, which is verbs ending in the hiragana syllable "u." For these verbs, change the "u"
to "wa," and add "nai." Refer to the chart below

“Kureru”

A

“Kureru” acts as an auxiliary verb when used with the te-form of verbs. This is used when
someone does a favor for the first person, or someone in the first person’s in-group. The
receiver is usually ‘I’ or ‘we’. The basic structure of a sentence using this construction is as
follows:
[Giver] wa [receiver (usually I/we)] ni ([thing] o) 〜te kureru.
Example sentences:
お母さんは家族みんなにご飯を作ってくれる。
Okāsan wa kazoku minna ni gohan o tsukutte kureru.

adjective means the subject becomes something, someone or some state. When
appending “naru” to i-adjectives, attach “naru” to the adverbial form of the i-adjective
(replace the final i syllable of an i-adjective with ku) and attach “naru.”

Koto ga aru

A

Today’s grammar point is the phrase “~koto ga aru,” which, when combined with the
plain past of a verb, expresses that the subject has done or has the experience of doing something. This expression is used when conveying that the subject has the experience of doing something, or when in question form, whether the listener has done or experienced something. For example, the subject has been to a location, has had the experience of eating something, etc. The phrase “~koto ga aru” can also be used to form a construction that has the meaning that there was a time when~, but this usage will be
covered in a later lesson.

A 
Formation
V. plain nonpast + mae ni
An example:
日本へ行く前に日本語を勉強します。
Nihon e iku mae ni Nihongo o benkyō shimasu.
I will study Japanese before I go to Japan.
Note that the verb in the S1 is always in the non-past form. The verb in S2 is the verb that
actually sets the tense of the phrase.
The second meaning, in which an action or event precedes an event, is created by
attaching "mae ni" to a noun.
Format ion
N + no + mae ni
An example:
大会の前に練習しましょう！
Taikai no mae ni renshū shimashō!
Let's practice before the tournament!
The third meaning is used to indicate location, and is formed in the same way as the
previous example; however, the meaning 'in front of' is indicated by the fact that the
noun represents a location or place.
Format ion
V.plain non-past + mae ni
N + no + mae ni
For example:
家の前に待ちます。
Ie no mae ni machimasu.
I will wait in front of the house
