ジムは医者になる

no. jimmyseal basically said it all lol

'naru' never takes 'wo'
 
Noun + に 母 に なる
なAdjective + に きれい に なる
いAdjective Is slightly different おおきい → おおきく なる

what?
haha I'm very sorry, i don't know a lot.
Are you saying that when using naru with an i-adjective you add ku to the end and don't have to use ni?
Tomii and jimmy:
Thanks!
 
why wouldnt you use ni?
just cause its redundant?

Damicci basically said it.

~naru:

-with a noun, u add 'ni' before naru

ex: I will become a doctor. = watashi wa isha ni narimasu.

-with an -i adj, u take off the the -i and add -ku

ex: I will become glad/happy. = watashi wa ureshiku narimasu.

-with -na adjective, u replace -na with -ni

ex: I will become kind. = watashi wa shinsetsu ni narimasu.

Get it?
