kitte da yo --> kiku n da. Or to be less informal, kiku no desu.


Ano, chotto. what are the differences of ~te ending verbs to the ~u ending verbs?

Quote:
benkyou suru da --> benkyou suru n da. Or again, suru no desu.


"da" is the plain for of "desu" right? everytime I use "suru" like my mistake here, it should be followed by "n" before "da"? I saw it in my book too, but I'm a little confused.


Quote:
muzukashii da --> muzukashii desu yo ne OR muzukashii yo ne. Don't use "da" after an i-adjective.


Thank you! does it apply to all "i-adjective" words? Could it also be "Muzukashii wa yo" or for masculine form, "muzukashii ze" something like that? Or is my term for masculine speech is, nanka hen?

Quote:
Nihongo no koto --> nihongo wa. Don't need to use "koto".


Oh, wakatta. I forgot, since my topic is Nihonggo, I shouldn't use "koto" which has the literal meaning of "the thing Nihonggo", correct me if I'm wrong.

Quote:
ippai dakara --> ippai aru kara/aru n desu kara


Q: Is "aru" applicable for numbers/quantities?

Quote:
nihonjin no tomodachi ga iru (not aru, as aru is used for inanimate objects or dead people :) )


oh lol! I forgot this, this was one of the basic lessons. oh my bad. "iru/imasu" are for animals and people, while "aru/arimasu" are for objects right?

Quote:
Don't need to say "ano hitotachi wa"; since you've just mentioned the friends last sentence, they'll still be the subject of the next sentence.


Arigato! I've forgotten the lessons that I've read/watched. Nihonjins do not tend to repeat the subject if they already know what/who you were talking about. Sorry for that.

Quote:
Ima, watashi-tachi to hanashi ga chatto dake --> sorry, I don't really understand what you're trying to say here.


What I'm trying to say is "we only talk in chat as of the moment". Can you compose a better sentence structure for that?

Quote:
Anyway, it's really good overall, just little mistakes here and there. Sorry if I sound... you know. <3?


Iiya, daijobu yo. Gomen, Watashi no nihonggo wa warui da ne? Ima mo motto benkyou suru n da. Arigato ne. You've just inspired me. Are you Nihonjin?
