1 Japanese Audio Flashcard Lessons, Grammar Guide General Notes VerbsThere are 2 main kinds of verbs in Japanese: u verbs and ru verbs. Both of these verb types have plain speech forms and masu forms. The masu forms are more polite. The root of a verb is the pre-u or pre-ru form. The stem of a verb is the pre-masu form. For an ru verb, the root and the stem forms are the same. For example, nomu is a u verb; it means drin!." Nomimasu is the masu form of nomu. The root of nomu is nom. The stem of nomu is nomi. Taberu is an ru verb; it means eat." Tabemasu is the masu form of taberu. The root of taberu is tabe. The stem of taberu is also tabe. Nomu and taberu are plain speech verbs. Their masu forms are nomimasu and tabemasu. U and ru verbs are often used as adjectives. For example, watashi ga taberu pan # the bread $ eat." Anata ga nonda biiru # the beer that you dran!." Desu %meanin& it is"' is a (opula, or lin!in& verb. $t is neither a u verb, nor an ru verb. $ts plain spee(h form is da. by itself, if you mean /it/s deli(ious./ ,ou ma" use either desu or da after a na adjective. For example, kono heya wa shizuka desu # kono heya wa shizuka da # as for this room, it"s +uiet." Lesson # パスーウトを見せてください。 3asupooto o misete kudasai. % 3lease sho. the passport."' O, sometimes .ritten as wo, is used to sho. that the pre(edin& term is a dire(t ob*e(t. For example, hon o kau # hon o kaimasu # $ .ill buy a boo!" or $ buy a boo!" %or boo!s'. Misete is the te form of miseru # sho.." 4in(e the te or de form of a verb sometimes adds the meanin& in&," misete (an sometimes be translated as sho.in&." Verbs endin& in ru, tsu, !u, su and u have te forms. Verbs endin& in mu, nu, &u and bu have de forms. Verbs also have past forms, .hi(h end in ta or da. For example, the plain spee(h past form of miseru is miseta # sho.ed." Kudasai # please." Kudasai is often pre(eded by the te or de form of a verb. For example, hon o katte kudasai # please buy the boo!." %Kau # buy"; katte is the te form of kau.' Kudasai is the imperative form of kudasaru, a polite verb meanin& someone &ives to me or to someone in my in&roup." For example, sensei ga hon o kudasaru # the tea(her &ives a boo! to me" %or to someone in my in-&roup'. )d*e(tives There are 2 main kinds of adjectives in Japanese: i %pronoun(ed ee"' ad*e(tives and na ad*e(tives. adjectives end in i" and modify a noun dire(tly. For example, oishii # deli(ious." Oishii pan # deli(ious bread." Na adjectives are follo!ed b" na !hen the" are used to modif" a noun. For example, shizuka # +uiet." Shizuka na heya # a +uiet room." ,ou may use desu after an i ad*e(tive. -o.ever, "ou ma" not use da after an i adjective. Oishii desu %meanin&, /it/s deli(ious/' is 01. 0ishii da is not 01. 2sin& plain spee(h, you may simply say oishii マイケルウエブさんですね。 Maikeru Uebbu san desu ne. % $t"s 5i(hael 6ebb, huh."'

Arimasen is the ne$ative form of arimasu. The masu form of u verbs is formed by addin& imasu" to the root %the pre-u form'. For example, nomu = nomimasu # drin!." ,ou may be surprised to learn that aru is a u verb, not an ru verb. There are a number of u verbs that end in ru, in(ludin& aru % exist"'. 6hat these verbs have in (ommon is that you %double the t& !hen makin$ the te or ta forms. $n this (ase, aru # exist."
