Q

にほんに いきたい

にほんに いきたい?

A

I want to go to japan
- by changing the intonation to sound like a question becomes:

Do you want to go to japan
- in the scenario desu ka is not necessary as just asking it as a question will do since ikitai and ikitai desu mean the same thing so its only really done to be polite
