Q

How to say what something is called

A

“something called [what it’s called]” would be something like “[what it’s called] to iu mono” ([what it’s called]と言うもの)

Example: Have you never heard of something called sarcasm? - it would be “hiniku to iu mono wo kiita koto naino?” (皮肉と言うものを聞いたことないの?

So if you want to say “a [something] called [what it’s called]” it would be

“[what it’s called] to iu [something]”

Example: “This is a flower called pansy” would be

“kore wa panji- to iu hana da” (これはパンジーと言う花だ)
I hope this helps :)

Q

How to say, I don’t know how to say that in Japanese

A
  • 日本語で [それを] どう言うのか分からない。 Nihongo de [sore wo] dou iu no ka wakaranai.,
    OR
  • 日本語での言い方が分からない。 Nihongo de no iikata ga wakaranai.

We hardly say the それを bit out loud.

日本語 = Japanese
で = locative/instrumental particle (in, using)... used before a verb or verbal phrase
それ = it, that
を = object-marking particle
どう...のか = how to
言う = say
分からない = not know
での = locative/instrumental particle で (in, using) + nominal-qualifying particle の... used before a noun or nominal phrase
言い方 = "how to say"
が = subject-marking particle, but used to indicate the object for the verb 分かる (understand, know)
