こんばんは皆さん!
Hey, umm... Well, so I was thinking about こと. I know how to use it (atleast, i think I do...) even though I didn't learn it yet in my textbooks (I think it's in the 3rd book under one of the "compound sentences" chapters), I'm pretty sure I know how to use one (or only...?) of it's uses.
Here's an example I'm pretty sure is right:
僕は何をすること知りません。
I don't know what to do.
That's correct, right?
Well, if it's not, please correct me.
Anyway, こと is used for linking verbs together, correct? To make compound sentences? Like, to use a verb and then the infinitive of another verb. Like in my example sentence: こと is linking the conjugated verb "know (actually, not know)" with the infinitive "to do". You can't say 僕は何をする知りません, can you? Well, if you can, maybe is casual speaking?
Well, I was just wondering what wonders こと can do. If there are more ways it can be used, please explain! Also, if you wouldn't mmind, could you please provide examples? But, if there aren't any uses and I explained it right and I know what I'm doing, just let me know!
Thanks~
