In this video, you'll learn how to give advice in Japanese.

The grammatical form"-hou ga ii" (ほうがいい) can be used after 3 Forms of Verbs: TA-Form, NAI-Form and DICTIONARY-Form.
When giving ADVICE or SUGGESTION, we use TA-Form and NAI-Form.

Conversely, the Dictionary Form is used only to express general opinions or personal preference, but NOT advice.
Let's see how to use each verb form with examples so that you understand them clearly.
