3 In Lesson 2, we have learned Telling/asking prices Shopping Ordering at a restaurant Telling/Asking which item(s) belongs to whom Telling/asking where something is located

4 In Lesson 3, we ll learn Talking about daily schedules and routines Inviting someone to do things together Accepting/refusing invitations *Romanization version and Additional Grammar Available on Engrade

5 3 types of predicate (sentence types) in Japanese Noun + desu (Lessons 1, 2) Adjectives (ii desu, takai desu), more in Lesson 5 Verb (Lesson 3, this lesson)

6 Lesson 2: 3 kinds of verbs: 1. ru-verbs 2. u-verbs 3. irregular verbs (how many?)

7 Present Tense (non-past) Dictionary/ Short Form Ru-verbs U-verbs Irregular tabe-ru nom-u suru Base tabe nom --- Stem tabe nomi shi Long form aff Long form neg tabemasu nomimasu shimasu tabemasen nomimasen shimasen

8 Present (non-past) Tense: Piza o tabemasu. Meaning? I/she/he/we/they eat pizza. (habitual action) (I) will eat pizza. (future action) Does NOT mean I am eating pizza right now. (cf. Lesson 7) Form: Present (non-past), affirmative long form Long form (desu/masu): speech style? Negative? Piza wa tabemasen (wa with negative predicate, Additional Grammar A)

9 ru verbs 4 ru verbs in Lesson 3: tabe-ru, ne-ru, oki-ru, mi-ru Why called ru verbs? What do you notice about the above? The base ends in e or i. Therefore, all ru verbs end in iru or eru. Others: dekiru, oshieru, mazeru, kiru, iru BUT, not all verbs that end in iru or eru are ru verbs. EXCEPTIONS (so far): kaer-u

10 -ru verb Stems Base = Stem tabe-ru base? tabe Stem? tabe We use the STEM to make the masu form (the long form, present, affirmative) and other forms too. tabe-masu Negative? tabe-masen What are the stems of the following: ne-ru, oki-ru, mi-ru? Make the masu forms of the above: nemasu, okimasu, mimasu

11 u-verbs Base Stem Example: nom-u nom-u is the DICTIONARY FORM Why are these verbs called u verbs? Because the DICTIONARY FORM is formed by adding u to the base nom+ u = nomu Base? nom -u is a suffix (short form, present (non-past), affirmative)

12 More Examples: ik-u, yom-u, hanas-u, kik-u, kaer-u Others: wakar-u, itadak-u, Distinguishing u-verbs from ru-verbs? tsukuru vs. tukeru If the dictionary form doesn t end in iru or eru then it s a good guess that it s an u-verb! kaer-u is an exception Irregular verbs are exceptions

13 STEMS For ru-verbs, BASE = STEM tabe-ru For u-verbs, BASE + i = STEM Ik-u BASE? Ik STEM? Iki nom-u BASE? Nom STEM? nomi

14 -masu forms (STEM + masu) hanas-u hanashi hanasi-masu kik-u kiki kiki-masu nom-u nomi nomi-masu kaer-u kaeri kaeri-masu

15 Irregular verbs (2!) 1. kuru 2. suru

16 STEMS Stem of shimasu? shi Stem of kimasu? ki -masu forms? shimasu, simasen kimasu, kimasen Dictionary (short) forms? suru, kuru

17 simasu Can be combined with nouns to form verbs: Examples? Benkyoo simasu. NOTE: Nihongo o benkyoo shimasu. Nihongo no benkyoo o shimasu (cf. p. 197)

18 Present Tense (non-past): summary Dictionary/ Short Form Ru-verbs U-verbs Irregular tabe-ru nom-u suru Base tabe nom --- Stem tabe nomi shi Long form aff Long form neg tabemasu nomimasu shimasu tabemasen nomimasen shimasen
