Learning Japanese

If you are interested in learning some basic Japanese right now, then you are in the right place. In this article I am going to introduce some simple Japanese sentences that you can start practicing with.

First I will show you how to ask for something. Let’s take the example of asking if someone has coffee. To say this in Japanese you say: “koohii ga arimasu ka”, however often you can drop the ‘ga’ and simply say ‘koohii arimasu ka’.

Here the verb ‘have’ is the word ‘arimasu’ and is used only for objects and not people or animals.

If you want to ask ‘are there dogs?for example you would say ‘inu imasu ka’ and we have replaced the word arimasu with imasu.

When you learn Japanese its important to understand that there are different verb forms such as ichidan and godan verbs and we have to change them or ‘conjugate’ them when used in different circumstances. I learn Japanese online and some of the better online courses teach all about Japanese verbs in their grammar lessons.

You may also want to know that when you are discussing places in Japanese you use different words depending on where the place is. For example if we are referring to a place that is close to the person that is speaking the word you use is ‘koko’, and if it is near the person being spoken to you use the word ’soko’, and finally if the place is far from both listener and speaker we say ‘asoko’.

Finally you may want to start learning some Japanese words to grow your vocabulary, so below I have listed some body parts for you:

ear – mimi

mouth – kuchi

head – atama

nose – hana

arm – ude

stomach – onaka

foot – ashi

eye – me

hand -te

leg – ashi
