Japanese class time! We will keep learning Japanese for daily usage… last week (actually 2 weeks ago) we learning the verb form – check the blog here.
Today we will learn the expression for adjective い form. I deliberately seperate い form and な form as I’d like to group the latter one with noun.^^
い form is relatively easy. It’s pretty much just to drop the です in the end.
Rules:
- Present tense: い
です - Present tense – negative: くない
です - Past tense: かった
です - Past tense – negative: くなかった
です
Examples:
- Present tense: 今日は暑い。
- Present tense – negative: 今日は暑くない。
- Past tense: 昨日は暑かった。
- Past tense – negative: 昨日は暑くなかった。
Hope it makes sense… I’ve got plenty of exercises which I haven’t done yet… moving slowly!!
Next week we will talk about な form and nouns… stay tuned!
