Preface

Producing the materials for this textbook involved a long process of

surveying students' needs, writing up the results, making detailed
revisions to the material based on the surveys, and responding to the
reactions and comments of students who used a trial version of this
text. It has taken more than four years to complete this project. Our
labor has been rewarded, however, because this book is based on our
original plan to produce the ideal textbook-one that will enable
students to learn Japanese smoothly, while also enjoying lively games
and helpful illustrations.

We have an extensive list of people to thank for the completion of this

textbook. First, our sincere thanks to Chiaki Sekido of the Publica-
tions Department of The Japan Times for seeing this book through the
publishing process. Particular acknowledgment goes to Kyoko Toka-
shiki who helped in the production of Lesson 11and following, to our
colleagues and trainees in the Asian Studies Program of Kansai Gaidai
University who attempted the triaI version and made invaluable sug-
gestions, to Kaori Tajima for her illustrations in the trial version, to
Judy Okawa for translating, and to the teachers whose heartfelt guid-
ance encouraged us throughout the process. Finally, we would also like
to express our gratitude to the foreign students at Kansai Gaidai
University for providing us with the opportunity to write this book.

Aim and purpose

GENKI: An Integyuted Course in E L m m z t u ~Japa~eseis a textbook for beginners in

the study of the Japanese language. Students can complete the elementary-level study
of Japanese in the 23 lessons of this text, which is divided into two volumes. The book
is designed mainly for use in university and college courses, but it is also effective for
high school students and adults who are beginning to learn Japanese either at school or
on their own. Hopefully, students will have at least a basic knowledge of English,
because grammar explanations are given in English.
GENKI: An Idegrated Cogrse in Elementary Japalzese is a comprehensive approach
to developing the four basic language skills (listening, speaking, reading, and writing)
in order to cultivate overall Japanese-language ability. Much emphasis has been placed
on balancing accuracy, fluency, and complexity so that students using the material
would not end up speaking accurately yet in a stilted manner, nor fluently yet employ-
ing only simple grammatical structures.

Structure of the textbook

This textbook basically consists of three sections: Dialogue and Grammar, Reading and
Writing, and the Appendix. A detailed explanation of each part follows.

AbDiaIogue and G r a m m a r
The Dialogue and Grammar section aims at irjnproving students' speaking and listening
abilities by learning basic grammar and increasing vocabulary. The Dialogue- and
Grammar section of each lesson is comprised of the following components:

@Dialogue
The dialogues revolve around the lives of foreign students living in Japan, their friends,
and their families, presenting various scenes that students are likely to face in their daily
lives. By practicing natural expressions and ulizuchi (responses that make conversations
go smoothly), students are able to understand how sentences are connected and how
some phrases are shortened in daily conversation. Because the Dialogue section of each
lesson covers a lot of new grammar and vocabulary, students may feel it is too difficult
to understand at first. Don't be overly concerned, however, because the grammar and
vocabulary will gradually take root with practice.
Dialogues are recorded on the accompanying CD. Students are encouraged to practice
regularly by listening to the CD and carefully noting pronunciation and intonation.

*Vocabulary
The Vocabulary section presents all the new words encountered in both the Dialogue
and Practice sections of each lesson. Words that appear in the Dialogue are marked
with an asterisk ( * ). Words are listed according to their function in Lessons 1 and 2,
and by parts of speech in Lesson 3 and following. In addition, all words presented in the
text are also found in the Index at the end of each volume.
Words found in the VocabuIary section of each lesson appear frequently in subse-
quent lessons, thus students are encouraged to learn them little by little each day. After
Lesson 2, commonly used kanji equivalents of some words (Joyo Kanji) are aZso listed,
but students are not required to memorize them.
This textbook does not indicate a word's accents. The accent of a Japanese word
varies considerably, depending on the region, the speaker's age (including the genera-
tion gap between speakers), the word's paradigmatic form, and its connection with
other words. Therefore, don't be overly concerned about the accent, but try to imitate
as closely as possible the intonation heard on the accompanying CD.

*Grammar
Grammar explanations are detailed, so that students can easily study them on their
own. Students at school are expected to read the grammar explanations before each
class.
This section also fully explains the items found in the Practice section that follows.
Necessary explanations for the grammar and vocabulary that are not found in the
Practice section can be found in the Expression Notes at the end of each Grammar
section.

@Practice
This section includes questions related to what was taught in each section of the lesson,
providing students with both basic practice and application. By answering the ques-
tions sequentially, students can naturally build up their Japanese-language ability. The
exercises with only one answer are marked with @ and recorded on the^^, allowing
students the opportunity to practice on their own.
The last part of the Practice section contains Review Exercises, which incorporate
aspects of the lesson as a whole. For example, some questions combine various topics
covered in the lesson, and some call for the creation of new phrases based on what was
learned in the Dialogue section.
 Introduction 4
Q)
@Supplement
Finally, some lessons include additional or supplementary information, This includes
expressions related to the topic of the lesson, as in "Time and age" in Lesson 1, or
expressions suitable at certain times or places, as in "At the station" in Lesson 10.
Words introduced in the Supplement section are found in the Index of each voIurne.

B b Reading and Writing

The Reading and Writing section aims to foster comprehension and writing ability by
learning Japanese characters and by providing opportunities to practice both reading
and writing. Hiragam is introduced in Lesson 1, followed by k a f a k a ~in
a Lesson 2, and
kanji in Lesson 3 and following. From Lesson 3, each lesson contains the following
components:

.Kanji list
Each new kanji introduced in a lesson is contained in a list, each with about 15 kanji.
This makes it easy to memorize a few each day, rather than be overwhelmed with so
many at once.

Among the readings shown in (4) and (5), himgunla indicates the kwt'yomi, or Japanese
readings for a kanji, while katakana indicates the on'yomi, or Chinese reading. Both
kun'yomi and o ~ ' y o m iare sometimes altered in compounds of two or more kanji. For
example, the ordinary pronunciation of % is "gaku," which becomes "ga(k)" when the
kanji is used in the word $45. Such derivative readings are also included in.(4)and (5).
Although some kanji have many readings, only those readings that are useful at an
eIernentary level are included.
Shaded readings and words in each lesson should be memorized. The others are for
reference, so students don't need to memorize them. A practice sheet for each kanji is
provided in the Reading and Writing section of the Workbook. Students should practice
writing the kanji repeatedly, according to the stroke order shown on the kanji list in the
textbook.

.Practice
GENKI 1 consists of kanji practice, readings for comprehension, questions about the
content of the readings, and writing practice. Kanji practice indudes various types of
questions, such as having students reconstruct a kanji from its various parts or make
new words by combining kahji. By tackling these problems, students will realize the
goal of practice-to become more proficient in their use of kanji. Basically, the readings
are short and deal with subjects familiar to the students. They are easy to understand
if the student has learned the vocabulary and grammar taught previously in the
Dialogue and Grammar section. When readings include new words, a corresponding
word list is provided. Finally, composition topics are given for writing practice.
GENKI 11 contains readings for comprehension, questions about the content of the
readings, and writing practice. The readings employ various styles of Japanese, ranging
from letters and fables to essays and advertisements. With a knowledge of the previous-
IY learned vocabulary, grammar, arid kanji, the readings are easy to understand but
grow longer and more difficult in later lessons. Word lists are provided for newly
introduced vocabulary. Finally, composition topics are introduced.

C b Appendix
Volumes 1 and 2 both contain an Index. The Japanese-English Index, in hiragana
order, lists words found in the Vocabulary and Supplement section of each lesson. The
number next to a word indicates the lesson in which the word was introduced. In the
English-Japanese Index, English equivalents to Japanese words are arranged in alpha-
betical order.
Also included in the Appendix are tables of verb conjugations as well as sound
inflections of the expressions related to numbers.

Orthography and font

The basic text is written in kanji and biragum. Kanji is used for the most commonly
used characters, those that appear in the official list of Joyo Kanji. Hiragma is used
instead, however, when the Joyo Kanji equivalent would not be necessary for beginning
students of Japanese.
 Introduction 4
lo
So that students can easily study the Dialogue and Grammar section, the pronuncia-
tion of every kanji is indicated in hiragam. However, to lessen the burden on the
students and allow them to study on their o m , Greetings and Lessons 1 and. 2 are
represented in hiraganu and kutakam, as well as by romanized forms. It is best not to
rely too much on the romanizations, but use them only as a learning aid. Students study
hirugam and kutakum in Lessons 1 and 2, respectively, of the Reading and Writing
section.
Students study kanji from Lesson 3 in the Reading and Writing section, where
pronunciations of the kanji already presented are not indicated in Riyuguna, in order to
promote t h e students' increasing acquisition of kanji.

The Japanese in the basic text is set mainly i n the Textbook font, which resembles
handwriting and serves as a good model for students. Students will encounter a variety
of fonts used for Japanese materials, however, arid should be aware that the shape of
some characters differ considerably, depending on the font used, Note especially that
with some characters, we find two separate strokes in one style are merged into a singIe
stroke.

Example: Textbook font Mincho font Gothic font Handwriting

 ( Japanese Writing System
There ark three kinds of charactersin Japanese: hiragam, htakana, and kanji.' AU three
characters can be seen in a single sentence.
k

Hiragcam and k a f a k ~ mli,ke the alphabet, represent sounds. As you can see in the above
example, hiragam has a roundish shape and is used for conjugation endings, function
words, and native Japanese words not covered by kanji. Kafakunu, which has rather
straight fines, is normally used for writing loanwords and foreign names. For example,
the Japanese word for "te~evision"is written in kcafaku~ as F L t+(terebi). Kanji, or
Chinese characters, represent not just sounds but also meanings. Mostly, kanji are used
for nouns and the stems of verbs and adjectives.

1. Basic Hiraana Syllables

There are forty-six basic hiraganu syllables, which are listed below, Once you memorize
this chart, you will have the skill to transcribe all of the Japanese sounds.

'There is another writing sgstem called (Roman lettend which is used for station names, signs,
and so on.
 Japanese Writing System 4
I@

"ThesybbIes L , G , and 7 are

romanized as shi, chi, and
ha, respectively, which is
closer to the English pronund-
ation.
* * % is dso pronounced as "wo."

The romanization is given fox general pronunciation reference.

2. Hiragma with Diacritical Marks

You can transcribe 23 additional sounds by adding diacritical marks. With a pair of short
diagonal strokes ( * 1, the unvoiced consonants k, s, t , and h become voiced consonants g,
z, d , and b , respectively. The consonant h changes to p with the addition of a small circle
(7.

*G (ji)and 3 b u ) are pro-

nounced the same as -t' Gi}
If zP A: 4 1% and Y Cm), respectively, and
pa Pi Pu Pe PO have limited use.
 fi
3. Transcribing Contracted Sounds
Small -P, @, and 1 follow after letters in the second column (i-vowel hiragam, except I\)
and are used to transcribe contracted sounds. The contracted sound represents a single
syllable.

4. Transcribing Double Consonants

There is another small letter 9,
which is used when transcribing double consonants such
as ff and pp.

Examples: 75.7 ?= kaBa (won) cf- 6' kata (shoulder)

5 7 is. sa&u (writer)
t i - 13' hama (leaf)
s.9 L zaghi (magazine)

Note that double consonant n's, as in sanfielz (3 years), are written with h, + a hiraganu
with an initial n sound ( 3,,: G a,h,or @).

Examples: 3 h kt h s a z m (3 years)
& k, h L t anmi (guide)

5. Other Issues Relating to Transcription and Pronunciation

k Long Vowels
When the same vowel is placed one right after the other, the pronunciation of the vowel
 Japanese Writing System 4
I@
becomes about twice as long as the single vowel. Be sure to hold the sound long enough,
because the length of the vowel can change one word to another.

.k;C$& 3 X/ o b m a n (grandmother) cf. S I T ? obasun (aunt)

j% L L 3 ojijsan (grandfather) cf. 6 3 X/ ujisan (uncle)
33c sMi (number)
The long ee sound is usually transcribed by adding an \ to an e-vowel him-
gma. There are a few words, however, in which 2 is used instead of &..

&~\hf ggu (movie)

3 oncaan (big sister)
The long oo sound is in most cases transcribed by adding an .i to an
u-vowel hiragam. There are, however, words in which the long vowel is
transcribed with an %, for historical reasons.

h&hu (law)
(ten)

B. Pronunciation of XI
A, "n" is treated like a full syllable, in terms of length. Its pronunciation varies, however,
depending on the sound that follows it. Japanese speakers are normally not aware of the
different sound values of h. Therefore, you do not need to worry too much about its
pronunciation.'

C. Vowels to Be Dropped
The vowels i and u are sometimes dropped when placed between voiceless consonants (k,
s, f, p , and k), or at the end of an utterance preceded by voiceless consonants.

Example: T3TT s(u)kr'des(zl) (I like it.)

20ne variety of the h pronunciation merits discussing here. When it is followed by a vowel or at the end
of an utterance, X, indicates that the preceding vowel is long and nasalized. (Nasalized vowels are shown
here with a tilde above vowel letters. You hear nasalized vowels in French words such as "bon," or the
English interjection "uh-uh,"as in "no.")
kLh&~\ rZai (romance)
13A ha (book)
Fallowed by pz, t , d, s, and z sounds, A is pronounced as "n."
f;LP mna (woman)
Followed by m, p , and 6 sounds, A, is pronounced as "m."
2 XI13 sampo (stroll)
Followed by k and g sounds, /v is pronounced as "ng" as in "song."
2 &;?* nacagga (comics)
D. Accent in the Japanese Language
Japanese has a pitch accent: all syllables are pronounced basically either in high or low
pitch. Unlike the English stress accent in which stressed syllables tend to be pronounced
longer and louder, in Japanese each syllable is pronounced approximately in equal length
and stress. The pitch patterns in Japanese vary greatly, depending on the region of ~e
country.
Examples: & 2 .a_._ - .
sa (morning)
32% ._--m@--e
na (name)
, -kiXka-..
tu z (high)

'The syllables Y , 4 , and Y are

romanized as ski, chi, and
tsu, respectively, to give a
closer English pronunciation.

The pronunciation of katakum and its combinations are the same as those of hiragam,
except for the following points.

(1)The long vowels are written with -.

Examples: ;Ir- kaa b~)
Zq- saki (ski)
x- su,h (suit)
9 - keeki (cake)
$-1t bamr (ball)
When you write vertically, the -- mark needs to be written vertically also.
Example:

(2) Additional combinations with small vowel letters are used to transcribe foreign sounds
that originally did not exist in Japanese.

Examples: 3'4 T\u'?'~-7 harowiin (Halloween)

31. 2 h 4 9 x 4 haiwee (highway)
3$ ~ % 4 1 ~ 3 $ - 9 mineruruwoutua

similarly with Q&CI~OO and arigaioo gomimasu. The rule of thumb is: if you
are on a first-name b&is with someone, go for the shorter versions. If you
would address someone as Mr. or Ms., use the longer versions. To give a
concrete example, the social expectation is such that students are to use the
longer variants when they speak with a professor.

&&5%6)There are several good-bye expressions in Japanese, the

choice among which depends on the degree of separation. Sayoomre indi-
cates that the speaker does not expect to see ~e person spoken to before she

L I L \ Z ) Ik is primarily "No," a negative reply to a question. In the

dialogue, it is used to express the English phrase "Don't mention it," or
"You're welcome," with which you point out that one is not required to feel

"It is 12:30." "I am a student." "My major is the Japanese language." These sentences
will all be translated into Japanese using an appropriate noun and the word desu.

@ 9 I= U 1.3A/ TT0 (It) is half past twelve.

Juuniji han desu.

$2 ( * L \ T - F O (I) am a studat.
Gakusee desu.

tc C3X. z*T-3-0 (My major) 6 the Japa~leselanguage.

Nihongo desu.

Note that none of these sentences has a "subject," like the "it," "I," and "my major"
found in their English counterparts. Sentences without subjects are very common in
Japanese; Japanese speakers actually tend to omit subjects whenever they think it is
clear to the listener what or who they are referring to.

What are we to do, then, when it is not clear what is being talked about? To make explicit
what we are talking about, we can say:

t3 b= G3h Z*TT, is the Japalaese kanguage.

wa nihongo desu.

Where stands for the thing that is talked about, or the "topic," which is later in
the sentence identified as nihowo. For example,

+&XI SI h,4.3 :*TTa

it t 3 h/ (My)major ds the Japanese langwzge.
Senrnon w a nihongo desu.

Similarly, one can use the pattern X wa Y desu to identify a person or a thing X as item
Y.

$7')--3LlA 7%1)3FJ13'b-c--Fo Mary i s an American.
Mearii san wa arnerikajin desu.

Wa is a member of the class of words called "particles." So is the word lzo, which we will
turn to later in this lesson. Particles attach themselves to phrases and indicate how the
phrases relate to the rest of the sentence.

Note also that nouns like gakwee and sesee in the above examples stand alone, d i k e
their English translations "student" and "teacher," which are preceded by "a." In
Japanese, there is no item that corresponds to "a,"nor is there any item that corresponds
to the plural "-s" at the end of a noun- Without background situations, a sentence Iike
gakusee desu is therefore ambiguous between the singular and the plural interpretations;
it rnay mean "We are/you a d t h e y are students," as well as "I am/you are/she is a
student."

It is very easy to form questions in Japanese. Basically, all you need to do is add ka
at the end of a statement.

al

The above sentence, Ryzcugakusee desu ka, is a "yes/noWquestion. Question sentences

may also contain a "question word" like nun2 (what). In this Iesson, we learn how to ask,
and answer, questions using the following question words: nun.; (what time), namai
(how old), nannensee (what year in school). Note.carefully that the order of words in a
sentence may be quite different from what you find in your language.

Senmon wa nan desu ka. (Senmon wa) eego desu.
What is your mior? (My major) is Eytglish.

'It is not customary to write a question mark at the end of a question sentence in Japanese.
'The Japanese question word for "what"has k v o pronunciations: =an and naai. Naa is used immediate-
ly before dmu or before a "counter" like ji (o'clock). The other form, mmi, is used before a particle.
Nani is also used in the combination nanl;jin (person of what nationality).

No is a particle that connects two nouns. The phrase Toozai daigaku nu gakusee means
"(a) student at Tozai University." The second noun gukmes provides the main idea"
(being a student) and the first one T ~ o z a idaigdku makes it more specific (not a high
school, but a college student). No is very versatile. In the first example below, it acts like
the possessive ("x's") in English, but that is not the only role no can play. See how it
connects two nouns in the following examples.

Observe that in the first two examples, the English and Japanese words are arranged in
the same order, while in the last two, they are in the opposite order. Japanese seems to
be more consistent in arranging ideas here; the main idea always comes at the end, with
any further description placed before it.

3Here is what we mean by the "main idea." In the phrase Tukeshi san m dmwa Bangoo (Takeshi's
phone number), the noun &wa bawgoo (phone number) is the main idea, in the sense that if something
is Takehi's phone number, it is a phone number. The other noun Takeski san is not the main idea,
because Takeshi's phone number is not Tak&.

A phrase of the form "noun1 m noun? acts more or less like one big noun. You can put
it wherever you can put a noun, as in the following example:

Expression N o t e r a 1
8Db Ano indicates that you have some reservations about saying what
you are going to say next. You may be worried about interrupting some-
thing someone is currently doing, or soundkg rude and impolite for asking
personal questions, for example.

[3tl/ZZb Both Rai and ee mean "yes" in response to yes-no questions.

Compared to hai, ea is more conversational and relaxed. In more informal
situations, ula is used.
Hai is also used to respond to a knock at the door or to the calling of one's
name, meaning "Here," as follows. (Ee cannot be replaced in this case.)

Pronunciation of 1% b The particle t;t. is pronounced "wa," not "ha." It

Giving one's telephone number b The particle .pro is usually placed in

between the local exchange code and the last four digits. Therefore, the
number 012-345-6789 is zero icki xi, saa yon go no, roku nana hachi kyuu.

@hreLlbThe word s e ~ s e eis usually reserved for describing somebody

else's occupation. Watashk wa s a m e desu makes sense, but may sound
slightly arrogant, because the word semee actually means an "honorable
master." If YOU (or a member of your family) are a teacher, and if you want
to be really modest, you can use the word kyooshi instead.

&hr b Sun is placed after a name as a generic title. It goes both with a given
name and a family name. Children are referred to as chan (and boys in
..-
,.:.I . :.'
,

pa&culaf as kurr), rather than as sax. Professors and doctors are usually
referred to with the title sensee. S m and other title words are never used in
reference to oneself.

Referring to the person y w are talking to b The word for "you," anaba, is
not very commonly used in Japanese. Instead, we use the name and a title
like sun and sensee to refer to the person you are talking to. Therefore, a
sentence like "Ms. Hart, are you Swedish?" should be:
It & t r6 i f P b
I\-t. SLEk x ~ 3 - ~ Y L ~ T ~ ~ ~ ,
Haato san wa sueedenjin desu ka.
It d k 7 L i T / "
instead of I\- b 3 & , &;fcf..i3 ~ 3 z - r " Y V h / T ? h ~ ~
Haato sari, anata wa sueedenjin desu ka.

Japanese names b When Japanese give their name, they say their family
name first and given name last. Usually, they don't have middle names.
When they introduce themselves, they often say only their family name.
Here are some typical Japanese names.

What do we do when we want to talk about things that we do not know the names of?
We say "this thing," "that one," and so forth- In Japanese, we use kwe, sore, and are.

t&la LX ( b-c$-hS, Haw much is this?

Kore wa ikura desu ka.

5Aeh2&T$, Tht ~ 3,000 yen.

Sore w a sanzen en desu.

Kore refers to a thing that is close to you, the speaker ("this thing here"). Sore is
something that is close to the person you are talking to ("that thing in front of you"), and
are refers to a thing that is neither close to the speaker nor the listener ("that one over
there").

* A
ZjklA bkta ~ 7 T j - , +h12 btz L@ K ~ T T ,
Kore wa watashi no pen dew. Sore wa watashi no pen desu.

There is also an expression dore for "which." Here we wiIl learn to use dore in sentences
like:

rs"ktT-j-&~, Which one is it (that you are talking about)?

Dore desu ka.
In this lesson, we will not explore the full extent to which the word dore can be put to use,
because there is a slight complication with question words like dore, Question words like
dwe and mni cannot be followed by the particle wa. Instead, you must use the particle
ga and say:

-L
i

Z*&hz & Q f = c ? ~ *>feTh', Which m e is yoiw pen?

~ o r e g a anata no pen desu ka.

If you want ta be slightly more specific than kore, sore, and are, you can use kmo, s m o ,
and a m together with a n m . (Note here that the re series must always stand alone,
while the m series must always be folbwed by a noun.) Thus, if you know that the item
in your hand is a watch Ctokee), instead of:

Zt-lAd ~ k h< T T & - o How much jS this?

Kore wa ikura desu ka.

you can say:

Z9Z&fW2 L \ ( hT-j-&~o HOW much is this watch?

Kona tokee wa ikura desu ka.

Similarly, if you are talking about a watch that is held by the person you are talking to,
you can say:

+ a r t-$~lta; x / - t ~ . ~ x / ; ? _ ~ ~ ~ - j - ~ That watch is 3,000 yen-

Sono toke wa sanzen en desu.

And if the watch is far from both the speaker and the listener, you can say:

& ~ r ) Z d ; f ~ \ 13&-85Lz*lP+
3 ( RLTT, That watch over there is 3,500 y m .
Ano tokee wa sanzengohyaku en desu.

If you already know that one of several watches is 3,500 yen but do not know which, you
can say:

z * 9 r c 3 ~ \ 6~~h ~ ~ / t + v + ( ; ? - ~w /~- ~r ~~ fwi ~u ,~ c ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ u

Dono tokee ga sanzengohyaku en desu ka.

Since dono is a question word, just like dore discussed above, we cannot use the particle
wa with it; we must use ga.
To summarize:

zfi (fa--> Z @ noun (Ig--) close to the person speaking

33% (kt-) 503 noun (la--) close to the person listening
(13~) 603 noun (I$--) far from both people
(fj;-) noun (fi5--) unknown

In Lesson 1, we learned how to say things like Mean? san no denwa bangoo (Mary's
phone number) and Takeshi san no okaasa~(Takeshi's mother). We now learn how to
ask who something belongs to. The question word for "who" is dare, and for "whose,"
we simply add the particle no.

words for places.

Surnirnasen, yuubinkyoku wa doko desu ka.

If you are close by, you can point toword the post office and say:

(@jZP*h$a { (3) &%tTT, (The post office 5,)right over there.

(Yuubinkyoku wa) asoko desu.

We will learn how to give more specific directions in Lesson 4.

In Lesson I, we learned how to say "Item A is this, item B is that." We now learn how
to say "Item A is this, and item B is this, too."

Takahi is a Japanese person.

& % r s A %i=~3ArLT-f0 Mkhiko i s Japanese, &.

Michiko san m r nihonjin desu.

Note that these two sentences are almost identical in shape- This is natural, as they both
claim that a certain person is Japanese. The second sentence, however, is different from
the first in that we do not find the particle wa in it. We have mo instead. Mo is a particle
that indicates that that item, too, has the given property. One thing that you should watch
out for is exactly where the particle is placed. In English, the word "too" can be placed
after the sentence as a whole, as in the example above. Not so in Japanese. In the above
example, mo must directly follow Michiko san.

'We cannot use nao to describe a situation like the folIowing: Our friehd, Pat, has dud citizenship: Pat
is a Japanese, but at the same -time, she is an Americart To describe the second half of this situation,
we cannot say, P ~ t t om ~ m & a j k desas, because the sentence would mean that Pat, in addition to
sdmebady that has been mentioned, is an American- Neither cari we say, Pcaifu wza d a i b z m dem.
(Japanese speakers would say, Patto ma amdajivt dma nrkwases.)
'In the dialogues, there are two sentences that end with d m , which call for special attention: Are m
tdad dmtl we (That one too is expensive), and Oishii desas yo (It is delicious). These sentences cannot
be negated by replacing d m with ja a n h s e ~because

tt oiskii ja a d m are therefore not grammatical. Instead, m e would have to say
f~kaa k r i m m and uishikzr a?+mmm.We will learn about the conjugation pattern of adjectives in
Lesson 5.
Ja in ja arimase~is a contraction of dewa. In written Japanese, the uncontracted form
is more common; thus, the above sentence more likely appears in writing as Yamada sari

Statements often end with the tags ne or yo, depending on the way fhe speaker views the
interaction with the listener. If the speaker is seeking the listener's confirmation or
agreement to what has been said, then ~ z s("right?") could be added.

Another particle, yo ("I tell you"), is added to a statement if the speaker wants to assure

decree.

item X. In the dialogue, the restaurant attendant uses it when she is about
to hand the menu to the customer. It may also be used when a person is
waiting for you to come forth with item X; a telephone operator, asking for
your name, would probably say Onanaae o doozo. (0is a politeness marker.
Therefore onamae is "your honorable name.")

On the pronunciation of number words b Note that the words for 300, 600,
800, 3,000 and 8,000 involve sound changes. "Counters" whose first sound is
h, like h y a h (hundred), generally change shape after 3, 6, and 8. Some
counters that begin with s, like sen (thousand), change shape after 3 and 8.
Refer to the table at the end of the volume.

Big numbers ) In addition to the digit markers for tens (juu), hundreds
(hyaku), and thousands (sen), which are found in Western languages as
welI, Japanese uses the marker for tens of thousands (man).Thus 20,000, for
example, is niman (=2 x 10,000), rather than rtiiuusm (=20 X 1,000). While
the next unit marker in Western languages is one milfion, Japanese
describes that number as 100 x 10,000, that is, hyakumun.
More complicated numbers can be considered the sums of smaller
numbers, as in the following examples.

Verb Conjugation
Verbs in Japanese conjugate, or take various shapes. In this lesson, we learn three forms:
(1) the "dictionary forms," (2) the present tense affirmative forms, and (3) the present
tense negative forms.' There are two kinds of verbs that follow regular conjugation
patterns, and an example of each is beloiv.

1 ru-verb u-verb 1
/ verb bases tabe ik
dictionary forms (to eat) E< (to 90)
LI
~
present, affirmative &<bb 5L) S Z T
present, negative &<a@h
stems i4
t;

&-;. 4 belongs to the group of verbs called the "ru-verbs." RZL-verbsare so called, because
you add the suffix ru to the verb base (tabe, in the above example) to form the dictionary
form. For the two long forms we learn in this lesson, you simply add the suffixes mnszc
and masen, instead of Y U , to the bases. We learn four ru-verbs in this lesson:

Another major group of verbs is called the "u-verbs." The dictionary form of an a-verb
like f i { can be broken down into the base (ikin f i e above example) and the suffix u. The
I 1

*
long forms like $T 1 3 -if and 63 3 h, then, are formed with the base plus suffixes
1> I%

i m s u and imasen. You may find the u-verb conjugations sIightly more difficult than the
ru-verb conjugations, because of the extra vowel i. We learn six u-verbs in this lesson:

h he use of the term "dictionaxy forms" is by no means restricted to listings in a dictionary. They also
appear in various constructions in actual sentences. We will learn their uses in later chapters. Don't be
misled by the names given to the long foms too; the "present tense" in Japanese can indicate both the
"present" and the "future." We will return to this issue in Section 2 below. For the moment, we will
concentrate on the foms, not the meaning of these verbs.
In later lessons, we will have many opportunities to refer to the parts like $k< and E 3 ,
t Ir

which come before 3 T and 3 * A in the long forms. For the sake of ease of reference, we
will call these parts (same as bases with ru-verbs, and bases plus i with a-verbs) "stems."

In addition to ru-verbs and u-verbs, there are two "irregular verbs." Note that the voweIs
in their bases are different in the short (dictionary) forms and the long forms.

irregular verbs
dictionary forms 35 (to do) < Q (to come)
present, affirmative l/S* $25
present, negative tBeh 3beh
1 sterns b

These two verbs are also used to form compound verbs. In this lesson, we learn the verb
&S
*L?'i?
96 , which conjugates just like the verb -;f 8.

It is important to remember which verb belongs to which conjugation class. It is a good

idea, therefore, to memorize each verb as a set: instead of memorizing just the dictionary
form, try to memorize the dictionary form and the present tense affirmative, like ;T;i- < - L L

$7 3 f T. This is especiaIly important with verbs that end with the hiragam b , because
t l

they may be irregular verbs like 3- b and ( 6 , or ru-verbs, or u-verbs whose bases just
happen to end with the consonant r. If you know the verb classes and the rules that apply
to them, you know why it is wrong to say X IL 1 3 9 and XHir

'Things are not as bad as you might expect after reading the above paragraph. The key lies in the second
from the last syllable in a dictionary form. The irregular verbs set aside, if you see the vowels a , o, or
u right before the final 4 , you can be absolutely sure that they are a-verbs. (We have not learned any
such verbs yet.) Unfortunately for us, the logic does not follow in the other direction; there are m-verbs
and u-verbs that have the vowels i and e before the final 4 . 2 5 has the vowel e before 4 and is a

ru-verb. n-'LR8 , on the other hand, has the same sound sequence, but is an u-verb.
In this lesson we learn about a dozen v e r b that describe basic human actions. Thew are
often called "action verbs," and the "present tense'' of these verbs either meam (I) that
a pezs'son habitually or regularly engage in these activities, or (2) that a person will, or is
planning to, perform these activities in -the future.

-
Note that may replace the particle it only in the goal-of-movementsense. The particle
4: for time references and other uses, which we will learn about in later lessons, cannot
be so replaced.

The particle 2 indicates "direct objects," the kind of things that are directly involved
in, or affected by, the event. Note that this particle i s pronounced "o."

time expressions, like "at lo:&," and "in September."

 I will go buck in September.

You do not use the particle C: with (I) time expressions defined relative to the present
moment, such as "today" and "tomorrow," (2) expressions describing regular intervals,
such as "every day," and (3) the word for "when."

1 will c m e t m r r o w .

You normally do not use : G with (1) the parts of a day, like "in the morning" and "at

personal preferences.

extend an invitation. It should be noted that its affirmative counterpart, 2 TBs,canlzot be
so used. Thus a sentence like &5TlatL

weekends?" "Let me say what I will do today; I will go to Kyoto."

Ask questions and find out the items your partner has chosen.

i 1. Before you start, both of you will choose one item in each row of the table
and mark it.
2. In each row, using the verb and one of the four items, make a yes-or-no-
question sentence and find out which item your partner has chosen.
3- You can ask at most two questions with one verb. If you have guessed
correctly the item your partner has chosen, you score a point. Your partner
will not give away the right answer when you ask a wrong question.
j 4. When you have asked questions about all the verbs in the table, switch roles
with your partner and answer their questions.
! 5. Tabulate the score. You win the game if you have scored higher than your
partner.

In both cases, t directly marks an item on the list of things or people that have something
in common. Observe that $ replaces the particles 12, dr, or 2 in these sentences.

You can also use t when you go to two places, do something on two different occasions,
and so forth.

u use Z to connect nouns only. We will learn about connecting verbs and sentences in Lesson 6.

Expression Notes@
I
X X is often used in the sense of "across (the street) from X" or
bx
"opposite X." You may also hear another word that is used in the sense of
across, namely, X 8 Q fiht1.
If something is b&ind X, or farther away from a street and cannot be
directly seen because of the intervening X, in addition to calling it X OB 5 ,
JL
you can also describe it as being X a)5 5 .

3 /& 3 ) In t h e dialogues, we observe Mary's host father saying L 3 ,

and her host mother saying 213 . k 3 is like the incredulous "what?" that
you use when you have heard something that is hard to believe. 3 is used
when you have suddenly noticed or remembered something. The small -;, at
the end of these littIe words indicates that these words, when pronounced,
are very short.

=eB* b % (half) appears after the unit word like @E.

1Z LfJhElu @A2 E
Thus, ''two hours
*A
and a half" is X@Bi+ rather than I + U 3 B i .
C C *,%l2b9 I; CtA C

% b%b b & t b L is "hello," which is used only in telephone conversa-

tions. Some people use & t % L when they place a calI. Some other people
use it when they receive a call.

There are two types of adjectives in Japanese. One type is called " kl-adjectives,"and the
other type " 3 -adjectives," L \ and fa' are their last syllables when they modify nouns.

Japanese adjectives conjugate for tense (present and past), polarity (affirmative and
negative), and so forth, just as verbs do. The two types of adjectives follow different
conjugation patterns.

LI-adjectives &\-adjectiveschange shape as follows. You wiII want to be very careful

here, because the pattern is rather complicated.

S%b3L\ aff ir rnative negative

present 8%b3L+lT$ S%t5<&9dt?h,
It ik interesting- It is ~ o interesting.
t
past
It was interesti7ag. If was not interesting.
It is interesting (and confusing) that the idea of past tense is encoded differently in the
affirmative and the negative polarities: (iG % L 3 )-- +
hi 9 f= TT is "past affirnative, "
while (i5 % t 4 ) { &I 9 2 # A T*L R is "negative+past.l"

Unlike verbs, adjectives conjugate fairly regularly. The only irregularity worth noticing
at this stage is the behavior of the adjective k \ L \ (good). The first syllable of t > L l is
changed to 1 in all forms except the dictionary form and the long present tense affinna-
tive form.'

L\L\ (irregular) affirmative negative

actually is exactly the same as the conjugation table of TT which follows a noun, as
discussed in Lesson 4.'

The final syllable 3 is dropped in these long forms of 3-adjectives.

'Some speakers follow a more regular conjugation, where C-if' is inert in both polarities. For these

speakers, the chart looks like the following:
-
affimative negative --%

past T --{;'dh's,IF:T$
'There actually are alternate forms, I r \ and d: hT+, but they are much less frequently used than L\Lx
and ~ 1 k l T ' f ' -
'As with tl-adjectives, some speakers prefer an alternative para-, such as the foIlowing:
affirmative negative
present -T$ --U.rQb\f"g-
past -TI-i?: --t'~fb&*~f:T-$
In this lesson, we learn two Q-adjectives that am very important from the grammatical
point of view. They are % f
-) (to be fond of; to like), and 3 4 L 1 f 3 a') (to be disgusted
$ (IQ
with; to dislike). The meaning of these adjectives is relational, and you need two terms:
a p e r s o w like or dislike something on the one hand, and a person or a thing on the other
hand that is liked or disliked. In sentences, these two terms usually appear with the
particles 43 and fif , respectively.'

The item that is liked or disliked can also be a person. You may want b be cautious using
these words in reference to your preference for a specific person, Lowever, because 3 7
TT is usually taken to be an admission of one's romantic interest.5

Let us note three more things about 3r5

T
3 ( G) and 3 h L ( 3 ) before we go on. One, if you
like or dislike something (or somebody) very much, you can use the intensified forms of
33 3 TP and 3 b L \T$, namely, A% 3 TT and A 3 h 6 \ TT. These forms are more
T t L:f>

common than the combinations of Ef %+

3 ( fd: ) and 3 b r ( ) and the degree modifier
Z T $, to which we wiIl turn shortly.

Two, when Japanese people want to say that they neither like nor dislike something, they
usually say:

I fieither like nor dislike (it).

Three, you can use H 3 I'd: and 3 L; L \ Q as modifiers of nouns. For example, you can say
f
things like:

41n contexts where you are contrasting two or more items, the particle CA is used instead of $5 Thus,
3 3 3 . ,: <-. I 3 h T o 1 like vegetables, but I don't like meat.

In the expression of romant~cor familial affection, the complex particle a)Z Z 75.' can replace .'2 Thus,

There are two important things you should b o w about cPunting items inJapanme. One,
we use different n r r m k wards for different kinds of items; the words used for connting
people are different from the words used for counting books, for example. Two, number
wards often came wFter, rat be^ than &&re, the items cwrmted in a sentence.

The number word, Z&,'1X.b~.

and the "counter"&.

This counter
is used for sheets of paper and other flat objects. There will be other counters in later
lessons-for people, for books, for sticklike objects, and so forth.

forming a sentence that describes two events or activities. ("I did this and did that.")

The conjugation paradigm of te-forms is fairly complex, as we need to learn separate

rules for ru-,u-,and irregular verbs. Furthermore, the rule for %-verbsis divided into five
submles.

First, with m-verbs, the rule is very simple: Take & off and add T.

ru-verbs
S
Il
qa + B<z
f;

U-verbs come in several groups, based on the final syllable of their dictionary forms.
1
u-verbs with final 3 , 3,and b

'As we discussed in Lesson 3, some verbs that end with the hiragana S are m-verbs and some others are
u-verbs. The rule of thumb for determining which verb is which is to examine tke vowel before the frnal
4 syllable. If the vowel is n, o, or u,the verb, without any exceptions, is an u-verb. If the vowel is either
a' or e , the verb can be either an u-verb or a m-verb. Statisticdly speaking, there are many more
m-verbs, than u-verbs in the im and e m camp, but there are many important verbs in the minority,
such as A b (to enter), and %
IS. d.%
5 Ito return).

{ : -. . }
.a m
om
...Urn
= .ways .-verbs
.*-im
{. .
+ em1
= often, but not always, m-verbs

As far as k-forms are concerned, we observe that u-verbsthat end with d will have a small 9,m-verbs
that end with $ do not.

The irregular verbs T & and < 6 , and compound verbs built with them, conjugate as
follows.

TZi 3 t7

Note that te-forms and stems (the foms you find before 3 ?) are totally different con-
structs in the a-verb camp. A common mistake is to assume that the simple paradigm
provided by the ra-verbs (&KT6
and f;
3 9)covers the u-verbs also, thus corning up
with unwarranted forms such as x 4 2 .\~f (see -%L 3 5 f ) and x %& f (see % A4. TI. It is

A verbal ie-form plus % i xb \TT means ''you may do . , . ," which describes an activity
that is permitted. To ask for permission, you can turn it into a question sentence, -- -C &

Describing Two Activities

You can use a tiifam if YOU want to combine two or more verbs, as in decribing a
sequence of events or actions f"I did this and then I did that"). In other words, the
te-form does the work of "and"with verbs. (Note that two verbs cannot he joined by E,
which only connects n o w . )

The te-form of a verb can also be used to connect a verb more "loosely7'with the rest of
a sentence. In the first example below, the verb in the te-form describes the manner in
which the action described by the second verb is performed. In the second example, the
te-form describes the situation for which the apology is made.

(a) an action in progress, or

(b) a past event that is cmnectd with fhe presmt.

Which of these two senses a given verb is used in is to a large extent determined by the
semantic characteristics of the verb. The verbs we have learned so far can be roughly
divided into three groups based on their semantics.

(I) verbs that describe continuous states

(2) verbs that describe actinities that last for some time
(3) verbs that describe changes that are more or less instantaneous

We have not seen many Group 1verbs. So far we only have 23 % and I 18. The te-forms
of these verbs are never used together with the helping verb I \ % , so we will have nothing
to say about them in this section.

Many verbs belong to Group 2. They include verbs such as $c< f:

Q , %1i2, and GFT.
3
When
the te-form of a verb in this group is followed by the helping verb b l5,we have a sentence
describing azz action in progress.

Sue is studyi~gright now.

Tcalgeshi k readiw a book in EzgZzSh.

You can also use a --T T sentence to describe what a person does by occupation.
The first example below therefore has two interpretations: one, you are teaching English
right at this moment; and two, you are an English language teacher (but are not necessar-
ily in class right now).

verbs,' 71 4 indicates a past occurrence of a change which has retained its significance

Sentences )
In the last lesson, we discussed the use of verbal fe-rorms to join sentences. L 1- and
2-adjectives and CSf after nouns also have te-forms, which can be used to combine two
elements to form longer sentences.

The te-form of an L >-adjectiveis formed by substituting ( T for the final L 1. The k-form
of a Q-adjectiveand a noun+ t T sequence is formed by adding T to the base or the
noun.

In this and the next lesson, we will learn a new paradigm of conjugation, which we wiIl
1

call "short forms. Before we start worrying about their meaning and how they are used,
"

let us first see what they look like. It should be obvious why they are called short forms.
We will list the already familiar "long forms" to the right in the table below.
----

1 verbs:
1 L\-adjectives:

&-adjectives:

short forms long forms

+
I replace 77 with E

+ rrpace&~dtihiwiihfdli
in the negative (d above)

---

'Various names have been given to this paradigm. They include "pIain forms," "informal forms," and
"direct style." Long forms, on the other hand, are often called "polite forms," "formal foms," and
"distaI style."
As noted in Lesson 5, the adjective L > L \ is irregular. Its negative short form is k <3 ~ ~ .

Verbs in the negative need to be analyzed in more detail, because 7%-, u-, and irregular
verbs conjugate differently.

With verbs in the negative, the following three points are worth noting.
(1)The negative short forms of verbs that end with the hiragalza ?J are -- b td:I\ instead
2
of --$Q~:L\,
f2) The vowel changes with the irregular verb < 4 .
f3) The verb $J B in the negative is l \ .

We now turn to discussion of how we utilize short forms. In this lesson, we will learn to
use the short forms in the following four contexts:

*In represented, or quoted, speech ("I think . . . ," "She said . . .")
a I n casual conversations, as signs of intimacy
In making negative requests ("Please don't . . .") (See 3 on p. 157.) A.

2Thissuggests that the bases of verbs like R 3 and % i actually end with the consonant w. This conso-
nant remains dormant when the base is [illowed by the vowel i, thus we have d
'
3 5t, where w is
lacking, but it surfaces with the vowel a following, 3T A .b This mystery consonant also explains why
*-
the te-formof such a verb has the small 9, just like verbs whose bases obviously end with a consonant,
such as Z 5 and 99.
 I n expressing ideas like "I like doing . . ." or "I am good at doing . . ."
(See 4 below.)
Quotations To quote a person's utterances or thoughts, you use a clause ending with a
predicate in the short form, plus Z S 7 T L 12 L f: (They said ". . ."I, kf ,ti,
E! L I 3 T ((I think
that . . ; ), and so forth. L is a quotation particle, which does the job of both the English
word "that" in indirect quotation and of quotation marks (" ") in direct quotation.

1 think Takeshi likes Mary.

Casual conversations Two people who are close friends or family members speak with
short forms at the end of sentences, using them as a sign of intimacy. The use of long
forms, in contrast, tends to imply the speaker's intention to "keep a proper distance" from
the listener. Short forms, then, are like talking on a first name basis, while long forms are
like using "Mr." and "Ms."

It may not be easy to decide when it is appropriate to switch to short forms. First of alI,
Japanese speakers are often very conscious of seniority. A year's difference in age may in
many cases totally preclude the possibility of establishing a truly "equal" relationship.

3Note that the present tense in Sue's original utterance is preserved in Mary's report.
4To say that you &'t f h i ~ ksomething is the case, it is more common in Japanese to say it like-$bl
2,E b1Z
bt
(I think that something is not the case) than-- l:,Fi1,125 +.?A (I don't tksak). Therefore:
+3h
(%L~)$~~)-SAI~)F;~?LPL;~P@~~;JP~~~~,B~~ST~
ft;&'t think Mary likes ~ a k e s h (=l
f think Iw"a"ry doesn't like Takahi)
Second, license to use short forms is not mutual; senior partners may feel perfectly
justified in using short forms while expecting their junior partners to continue addressing
them with long foms. Thus if somebody who is older, say, your Japanese language
professor, talks to you using short forms, they would be greatly surprised if you should
return the favor.

Here are a few observations on the grammar of short forms as they are used in casual
conversations.

.In the casual conversational use of short forms, question sentences do not end with
the question particle but with rising intonation alone.
+
T h e I?ending of 3-adjectives and noun CT constructions (b in the previous sec-
tion) is usually dropped.

In casual conversations, Cd \ and 2 are often replaced by the less formal .j and
-i i t L .

To request that someone refrain from doing something, one can use a negative verbal
short form plus t { fF 3 I..

nouns. Thus M8L t2--$s"3$
items denoted by nouns, such as $3,

also describe your preference for activities, such as

swimming, drinking coffee, and studying Japanese. Add to a verbal short form to
express the idea of "doing x."

(2) the noun is, per the function of the particle id, presented as the topic of the sentence
(us for Robert, he went to Okinawa).

What if we both know that somebody went to Okinawa recently, and I know that it was
Robert, but you don't. I will say:

ROBERT went to Okinawa.

'To describe one's skills or Iack thereof, we also often use a different set of expressions, namely, --h2Z

This sentence means that Robert went to Okinawa, which in English would be uttered
with an extra emphasis on the name Robert. His identity is the new piece of information
provided by this sentence. It is one of the functions of the particle 15." to (1) present the
subject of a sentence in a way such that (2) the noun will "fill in the blank on the
information sheet. "

The "blank on the information sheet" is a question word like f z h and FJ. The above Q [Z

As we learned in Lesson 2, a question word that is the subject of a sentence is never

followed by the particle lat, but always by the particle h2. As we have seen, a noun that
will provide the answer to such a question is also followed by the particle h'.

The two irregularities that we noted earlier are observed here once again. They are:

Short form predicates in the past tense can be used in the same way as the present tense
forms, which we discussed in Lesson 8.

Note that in Japanese the tense of the original utterance is preserved when it is reported.
If you are reporting somebody's utterance in which the present tense is used, you must
also use the present tense inside the quote. Thus, if your friend Sue said 4, El $W & %

The short forms of verbs can be used to qualify nouns, much like adjectives can. In the

2 13X. 1

example below, the phrase & Z T 5 % A, h.c 1 \ ((readinga book over there) is used as
a qualifier for the noun ?F &.

The studelet lwho is readkg a book over there1 is Michiko.

The following table shows various forms of noun qualification. The phrases in the boxes
qualify the noun f+A (person) to their right. Example 1 is a straightforward adjectival
Y

example. ~ x a r n ~2l contains

e a phrase describing a person's attribute (Lesson 7), example
3 has a verb in the short form (Lesson B), and example 4 has a 3-adjective, which is
relational (Lesson 5).

2A qualiying phrase like this, which has a sentence-like structure of its own, is technically known as a
"relative clause."
 u persun [who is interesting1
a persim lwho has long hair1

adjectives and verbs noun
used as qualifiers

Here are more examples of verbs used in descriptions of people.

(Who id the persm taking pictures over there?

People who do physical exmc&es mery day (are healthy.)

(like) people who

I do mt smoke.

(A letter c a m fmm) a f r i e d who got married last year.

Consider first the following pair of sentences in English.

Zelda has lost her key.

Zelda lost her key.

These two sentences present the same fact, Zelda losing her key, in different ways. The
first "present perfect" example describes the event as something that is connected with
the present: hearing the sentence, one will understand that Zelda is still without her key.
On the other hand, the second "simplte past" example describes the event as something
that is independent of the situation at the present moment; we do not know whether
Zelda is still looking for her key or has later retrieved it.

In Japanese, past tense forms do double duty on the affirmative end of polarity, but the
past tense and the T L 1 4 construction share the work on the negative end. Thus in the
affirmative, the past tense is used both with words like 3 3 (disconnected from the
present) and t i ("already," connected with the present).

With the negative, the past is used to talk about a finished time period like 3 -5 , but
T L 1 & is used if your intention is to talk about how things stand now ("not yet7').

describing activities, as defined in Lesson 7.

In this lesson, we learn to incorporate the explanation clauses in the statements them-
selves, rather than adding them as separate sentences. You can simply transpose the
"explanation+ 6%b " sequence to the beginning of a sentence for which the explanation is
offered.

= (situation), because (explanation).

= (explanation), fherefore, (situation).

Mary: It is getting cold.
Takeshi: Yes. Mary, what will you do at winter break?
Mary: I am planning to go to Korea or Taiwan, but I haven't decided yet.
Takeshi: That's nice.
Mary: Which do you think is better, Korea or Taiwan?
Takeshi: Mm . . . I think it is warmer in Taiwan. But Sue said that the food was deTicious in
Korea.
Mary: I see. By the way, are you going somewhere, Takeshi?
Takeshi: I won't go anywhere, I don't have money, so I will stay here.
Mary: Is that so? Then 1'11 buy some souvenir for you.
Takeshi: Wow, thank you.

In Japanese, adjectives have the same shape in noncumparative and comparative sen-
tences; there is no alteration as in "great/greater." The idea of comparison is expressed
by adding something to the nouns that are compared.

1 A tDMjjbt B @' property), = A iS more @ r ~ e r M

than B. I

You can ask for another person's opinion on two things in comparative terms.

A t B tk ~ = ? 3 ~ 1 3 3 ~ ;hf

Betwee% Pavarotti, Curreras, and Domingo, who do you think ZS the best si~ger?

'In red life, the phrases A 1% i h.' and B I 1 often appear in the reverse order, making it very easy to
be misled into believing the opposite of what is actually said. Don't rely on the word order, therefore,
to decide which item is claimed to be superior. Listen carefully for the words nC3 3 4' and 1 1.
'There are several alternates for Z-9 t;@ 13 i . They are: ft;b C3 5 , F 7 &, and f% 41. Any one of
these can be used in question sentences seeking comparisons between two items. Y ' 7 3; a d Z+T f3 e)

Pavarotti is best, naturally.

Note that the words 43 i and Y-;1%are not used in statements of comparison among
three or more items. Normal question words like fzh, Z*&, and a(- are used instead.'

When a noun follaws an adjective, and when it is clear what you are referring to, you can
replace the noun with the pronoun CT), one." You can use a to avoid repetition.

With L\-adjectives,the final r \ is dropped and ( is added, as in their negative canjuga-

tions. A common mistake is to expand the pattern of 3-adjectives and nouns and u s :t
with \-adjectives. It is wrong to say, for example, X @ $-L 11: Q 8.
W3.z

When an adjective is used with ta' 6 , a question axises whether the sentence describes an
absolute change (ex. "it has become warm, hence it is not cold any longern)or a relative
change (ex. "it has become warmer, but it is still cbld"). 3 6 sentences are ambiguous in
isolation. If you want to make clear that you are talking in relative terms, you can use the
pattern for comparison together with 'b & .

In Lesson 8 we learned the Japanese expressions for "something"and "not . . . anything,"

4Ff2~-and r, 2,. As you must have noticed, these expressions are made up of the question
1: It

PT, plus particles h* and S . Other expressions for "some" and "any" in
word for things, .*i:
Japanese follow this pattern. Thus,

As we noted in Lesson 8, these words are used by themselves, where particles 43, $5 or
2 would be expected. It is, then, interesting to observe how these expressions interact
with other particles, such as i:, 2,and C. These particles appear in the places shown
with underscores above. Let us look at some examples.

We sometimes use 75' and tf E at the
end of a sentence when we want our partners to treat what we have just
said as a given, common ground to buiId upon. These words often indicate
the speaker's intention to give her partner a chance to react and speak up.
By relegating the right to speak to one's partner, they also contribute to the
politeness of one's utterance.
In the dialogue, the travel agent lays out the relevant information on the
table; there are two flights, one leaving in the morning and another in the
afternoon. 6s attached to her sentence indicates that she wants to build
upon, and move forward with, these pieces of information. Instead of
asking the obvious question, namely, r 'lij 6 aft1tlT?ds, the agent chooses
not to finish her sentence, and lets her customer come forward with an
answer immediately.

Michiko and Mary meet after the vacation.
Michiko: Mary, I haven't seen you for a long time. How was your vacation?
Mary: It was really fun. I went shopping, ate Korean dishes, and things like that in Korea.
Michiko: Sounds good. I want to travel, too.
Mary: Did you have a fun vacation, Michiko?
Michiko: It was okay. I went for a drive just for one day, but I was working part-time every day.

Maw: Michiko, I want to introduce you to a friend of mine. This is John. He came to Japan Iast
month.
John: How do you do?
Michiko: How do you do? Nice to meet you.

Michiko: John, where are you from?

John: I am from Cairns, Australia.
Michiko: Is that so.
John: Have you been to Cairns?
Michiko: No, I haven't.
John: It has mountains and the ocean and is a beautiful place. It's famous for the Great Barrier
Reef. Where are you from, Michiko?
Michiko: I am from Nagano. Please come to visit me sometime. The food is good, too.
John: By all means, I would love to.

As you can see in the first example above, having L \ attached to a verb slightly affects
the composition of the sentence. A verb that takes the particle & can have either the
particle 2 or 5.' when it is followed by ?: t l. Particles other than Q remain the same.

The combination of a verb and f: L \ conjugates as an b\-adjective. Here are examples of

negative and past tense

If your wish is one you have entertained for some time, that is, if you "have wanted to,"
you can use t = b \ Z , g - = , T ~ \ 2instead

2 L \ T ?sentences are not usually used to describe wishes held by others. Somebody else's

hz Osaka, 1 will do s m e shopping a d eat Korea% food.

This sentence, however, tends to suggest that shopping and dining are the only activities
you plan to perform in Osaka. If you want to avoid such implications and want to
mention activities or events just as exemplars, thus leaving room for other things which
are left unsaid, you can use a special predicate form - 2 3 -15 3 -if 4 .

To get the f: 3 form of a predicate, you just add 9 to the past tense sho?t form of a
predicate. (Thus we have L t=9 for the verb rf- 6 , whose past tense is t ', and &x.f= 9
for $%6 ,past tense h-tk.) Note that the helping verb -5. .3 at the end of the Lktentence
t: :

indicates the tense of the sentence. You can change a --f= 9 --f: '1 T 4 sentence into the
past tense, or incorporate it in a bigger sentence, by working on the helping verb part.

Many Japanese speakers, however, find the tk versions more natural.

least one tA phrase. If you add $Lik to the sentences above, therefore, the

These sentences would be okay without iA, but there is a subtle difference
between the versions with and without I&. The d ir sentences are about the
places; they answer questions (either explicitly asked, or implicit) like
"What is Tokyo like?"
The sentences without b& after E , an the other hand, are answers to a
question like "Where do you find good teachers of Japanese?'?

Lesson 8. In the case of the particle E,the contrast is between the simple
4Z and the combination iz 43. (See also the grammar note on counting people

There are two distinct ways to mahe a shternent in Japanese*One way is to simply report
the facts as they are absmed. This is the made of s p e h that we have learned so far. In
-this lessan, we will learn a new way: the mode of apla:ab-ak things.

A repor5 IS m isolated description of a fact, When you are late fur an appointment3you
can already report in Japanese what has haapened, sqX #% 2 +FATL fi . TEs sentence,
however, does not have the right apologetic tone, because i; is not offered as an explana-
tion 'for anything. lf you want to mentian the b u m fail'= to m on time as an excuse
for being late., YOU will need to lrse the explamfi~amock af speech, and say:

(As it h i z ~ ~ e ,fjhlla Bw d&'t come~

An explanation has two components, one that is explicitly described in the sentence (the
bus not corning), and another, which is implied, or explained, by it (you being late for the
appointment). The sentence-final expression &-il-9 serves as the link between what the
sentence says and what it accounts for. Compare:

& L ?: 72 b $: ;ti !I 3 To 1 haue an exam tomorrow. (a simple observation)

& L ? z T X b -h% 21AT-$, 1 haoe an exam tomorrow. (So I can't go ouf toflight.)

I want to go to the bathroom. (decIaration of one's wish)

I want to go to the 6afhroona. (So tell me where it is.)

hTT goes after the short form of a predicate. The predicate can be either in the
affirmative or in the negative, either in the present tense or in the past tense. tLTT itself
1
is invariant and does not usually appear in the negative or the past tense forms. In
writing, it is more common to find PI TT instead of LT-3-.

You can use k T-P in questions to invite explanations and further clarifications from the
person you are talking to. It is very often used together with question words, such as r
i L -I (why) and r 9 L TZ (what has happened).

'A f ? ~L kX.'II*Trls question is best answered by a kCT sentence with the subject marked with the
particle i3.' rather than 13, as in this example. See Lesson 8 for a related discusion.
Verb stems may be fdowed by the helping verb T P 8 , which means "toomuch," or "'to
excess.'' F 6 conjugates as a regular ru-verb.

"it is better (for you) to do . ." is a sentence-final expression that you can
use to give advice. When you suggest an activity with I2 i Q x b h~ h t j , you are giving a
very specific piece of advice; namely, that it is advisable to do it, and if one does not
follow the advice, there is a danger or a problem.

13 j f i Z k \ L \T:"-if
is peculiar in that it follows different tense forms, depending on whether
the advice given is in the affirmative or the negative. When the advice is in h e affirma-
tive, 43 9 .hzr k l T T f f generally follows the past tense short form of a verb. When the advice
is in the negative, however, the verb is in the present tense short f o m .

You'd better eat more vegetables.

If is better mffu skip classes.

You can use @Tto give the reason for the situation described in the balance of the
sentence. Semantically, e> T is just like f i x 6 . Stylistically, T sounds slightly more
formal than dL h .

(reason) DT (~ituation)~ (situation), because (reason).
