Kinou tabeta niku wa oishikatta desu.Your sentence said, Kyou tabeta niku wa oishikatta desu
知[し]る;-)I was just about to ask if chiru was a -u verb!
でした is used for a past-negative form of i-adjectives or past/past-negative form of na-adjectives. Both おいしい and 暑[あつ]い are i-adjectives, so it should be おいしかったです/暑かったです for the past-positive tense.I know shita is a verb ending, can you please give me an example with shita and an adjective in the same sentence? I am thinking, "this room was a little hot".
Kono heya wa chotto atsui deshita... Or is it Kono heya wa chotto atsukatta desu?
Hon wa omoshirokatta desu. (Book was interesting).

Oh boy! So this means "teach me a little" / give me some advice.
You got it!Am I right in assuming oshieru is a -ru verb?
Right. They are same in meaning. 行った is the non-polite/plain form, and 行きました is the polite form.What's the difference between itta and ikimashita? Their example of 日本に行った (I went to Japan) and 日本に行きました means the same to me.
Perfect! (except just one typo.;-))So let me go down the list and see how good I am at this.
The articles of 週 and 道, called しんにょう, are the same. It's just the differece between the types of the font.週 This is week. But, how do you draw it? I've seen two ways, one with the curvy line like how the kanji up there is drawn for road, and another one where its like how it is drawn like the actual character. In my Kanji book the person draws it like the michi kanji, with the curvy line. I've been drawing it like the computer/printed Kanji...
I'm now up to ~470 Kanji (not all are memorized though) and it's getting easier to remember and write with constant practice. Today I re-did 1-424 in the course of 3 hours and man, did I forget the meanings/how to write some. I'm having a lot of trouble with ﾂ静?/size]!
Yeah, that 窶堙や?堋ｯ窶堙ｩ is written as 窶彑窶堋ｯ窶堙ｩ in kanji, e.g. 窶督ｾ窶堋ｩ窶堙ｨ窶堙ｰ窶彑窶堋ｯ窶堙ｩ "to turn on a light."I looked at the Kanji list on Wikipedia but even after cross referencing it, I can only think that "attach" 窶｢t is tsukeru... I learned fu-tsukeru a while back (it's also for what, urban prefecture when it has that roof on it) but this isnt it is it?
ﾋ彙窶堋ｳ窶堙遺?堋｢ is the non-polite/plain form of ﾋ彙窶堋ｵ窶堙懌?堋ｹ窶堙ｱ, the same relation to ﾂ行窶堙≫?堋ｽ <--> ﾂ行窶堋ｫ窶堙懌?堋ｵ窶堋ｽ.Could you please tell me when to use those -nai forms? If we take hanasanai, since nai is the opposite...
The particle 窶堙 is used. person窶堙?彙窶堋ｷ "to talk with person"Toritoribe san o hanasanai? I'm not sure how to use them haha!
The 3rd/4th one. The 1st/2nd one's 窶堋ｵ窶堙ｱ窶堙俄?堙･窶堋､ is not used in hand-written kanji. That's just the simplified design for some fonts.When writing them in person would you use the (in your examples) 3rd and 4th, or 1st and 2nd? Or is it depend on the person's preferences?
The reading is good. But ﾅｽﾂｸ窶氾ｧ窶堙嫁陳ｾ窶堋､ sounds odd. The writer of the sentense would want to say ﾅｽﾂｸ窶氾ｧ窶堙遺?堋ｱ窶堙??堙ｰﾅ陳ｾ窶堋､ "to say rude things" or 窶板絶?貼窶堙架彙窶堋ｷ "to speak rudely," I suppose.I found this in another topic. ﾂ青ｼﾂ静ｬﾂ「窶堙俄?堋ｵ窶堋ｩ窶堙ｭﾂ」窶堙最ｽ窶樞?堙嫁ｽﾂｸ窶氾ｧ窶堙嫁陳ｾ窶堋｢窶堙懌?堋ｵ窶堋ｽﾂ。 Nishikawa wa watashi ni shitsurei ni iimashita. Good?
I see now about -nai! You probably use that between friends.
Yes.What would you use if you wanted to say "Toritoribe doesn't talk"? Just Toritoribe san wa hanasanai?
ﾂ催??ｹﾃ溪?堙個出窶藩?ｽ窶甜/size]
Most recent outcoming thing?
(saikin no shutsuraiji? or is the dekumoto...prolly wrong on that)
Can you read KANA characters?
Have a look to the 窶堙Ъ/B] just after the kanji 窶牢. It's a nice hint to see that the pronunciation is SUBETE as Mikawa Ossan said above.
全て - WiktionaryNow, I just came across another case.
List of jōyō kanji - Wikipedia
Lists Zen / Mattaku, and so does my Kanji book. There's no mention of subete...?
見せる[miseru] is the verb to mean "to show/to let someone see."Also, How can you have 見sen... is that a tense or something?
The first half "mi" is the reading of the kanji 見, and the second half "seru" is 送り仮名[おくりがな.]I see that it is on the list as mi-se but what does it mean?
Right. The causative form is made from "pre-nai form + 窶堋ｹ窶堙ｩ" for godan verbs, "pre-nai form + 窶堋ｳ窶堋ｹ窶堙ｩ" for ichidan verbs.It kinda looks like the -nai form, just without the nai.
No. It should be ﾆ稚ﾆ椎槌停?愴蛋ﾆ稚ﾆ停?ｰﾆ辰窶堙ｰ窶敕樞?堙閏/COLOR]ﾂ食窶堙冷?堋ｳ窶堋ｹ窶堋ｽ(past tense) for the both cases. The meaning, "to make him eat" or "to let him eat," depends on the context, except for some special verbs(ﾅ陳ｩ窶堙ｩ, 窶吮?ｦ窶堙ｩ, ﾅｽ窶披?堙ｩ, etc..)It's made for making and letting, so besides that example in wiki, could I say, "I made him eat french fries" French Fries o tabesaseru? Or, if it was a young kid, french fries o tabeseru? (let him)
french fries o ﾂ食窶堙冷?堙遺?堋ｩ窶堙≫?堋ｽ informal past tense of saying i didn't eat french fries.
French Fries o ﾂ食窶堙冷?堋ｽ窶堋ｩ窶堙≫?堋ｽ means that I wanted to eat french fries.
godan (katsuyou) verbs = consonant stem verbs = Group I verbs = u verbsFor now, I can see that ichidan = ru verbs, godan = -u.
Also this is all informal right? So what would formal be?
The ru ending of the causative form becomes the new verb ending. This conjugates as a vowel stem verb.
Ah, thanks! I didn't notice until now.Also, congratulations on your new brown belt!
