Since it first came out, GENKI has become widely used by teachers and students of Japanese and has gone through numerous reprintings. Such wide acceptance led to the decision to publish this revised edition. In 1999, our aim was to develop a textbook that teachers would find convenient and helpful, and one that students could easily use. We thus wrote the book based on a survey of students’ needs and refined it through many test-teaching situations. Originally meant as a text for foreign students studying in Japan, GENKI gained popularity among those studying in other countries as well. As use increased, we began to hear from those who wanted “more information on culture” and “audio aids appended to the text” It’s also been more than ten years since GENKI was originally published, and the passage of time has required revisions to vocabulary and expressions. ‘While retaining the ease-of-use quality for teachers, we have added new content and revisions that reflect our experiences and the voices of those who have used the text. The task of revision took two years to complete, We believe that this effort has resulted in a book that instructors and students will find even easier to use and learn from. ‘The opinions of the teachers and students who have used GENKI have been a major driving force in the preparation of this revised edition. We are truly grateful to those who have provided this input. The authors would also like to express their sincere appreciation to the following: Noriko Udagawa, our illustrator, whose work has become a GENKI trademark; the staff of The Japan Times; and particularly to Chiaki Sekido of the Publications Department of ‘The Japan Times, who has worked tirelessly with us on this project since its inception. It is our hope that students of the language will find additional pleasure in learning Japanese by using this new edition of GENKI. ‘The Authors January 2011 muss ASO B

Students can complete the elementary-level study of Japanese in the 23 lessons of this text, which is divided into two volumes. ‘The book is designed mainly for use in university courses, but is also effective for high school students and adults who are beginning to learn Japanese either at school or on their own. Hopefully, students will have at least a basic knowledge of English, because grammar explanations are given in English. GENKI: An Integrated Course in Elementary Japanese is a comprehensive approach to developing the four basic language skills (listening, speaking, reading, and writing), which aims to cultivate overall Japanese-language ability. Emphasis has been placed on balancing accuracy, fluency, and complexity so that students using the material will not end up speak- ing accurately yet in a stilted manner, or fluently but employing only simple grammatical structures. II Revised edition ‘The revised edition features changes in four major areas. 1. Addition of Culture Notes Each lesson now contains a “Culture Note,” which is designed to enhance students’ knowl- edge of Japan through information on Japanese culture and daily life. 2. Audio material bundled with text and workbook Audio aids, which had previously been sold separately, have now been added to the textbook and workbook in MP3 format. The addition of audio material for the workbook’s “Listen- ing Comprehension” exercises is especially convenient. We have also recorded the readings from the Reading and Writing section of the book. 3. Vocabulary and expressions We rigorously reviewed the vocabulary and expressions to replace words, such as “cassette Introduction >>> 19 tape” and “LL” that are no longer in common use, with words and phrases that students will encounter more frequently. 4, Grammar, practice and readings While no changes were made to the grammatical topics introduced in each lesson, we sup- plemented the text and/or made the necessary corrections to make the material even easier to understand. In the revised edition, we have replaced the negative forms of adjective and noun phrases -ku arimasen/-ja arimasen and -nakucha ikemasen, meaning “must,” with the -ku nai desu/ ja nai desu and -nakereba ikemasen/-nakya ikemasen forms, which are more commonly used in everyday life. We also increased communicative practice material—mainly dialogues—so that students would be given sufficient opportunity to practice the grammar that they learn. Moreover, we have updated the readings in the Reading and Writing section to make them more relevant to the Japan of today. I] Structure of the textbook ‘This textbook basically consists of three sections: Conversation and Grammar, Reading and Writing, and the Appendix. A detailed explanation of each part follows A> Conversation and Grammar ‘The Conversation and Grammar section aims at improving students’ speaking and listening abilities by having them learn basic grammar and by increasing their vocabulary. The Con- versation and Grammar section of each lesson is organized as follows: @ Dialogue ‘The dialogues revolve around the lives of foreign students living in Japan and their friends and families, presenting various scenes that students are likely to face in their daily lives. By practicing natural expressions and aizuchi (responses that make conversations go smoothly), students are able to understand how sentences are connected and how some phrases are shortened in daily conversation. Because the Dialogue section of each lesson covers a lot of new grammar and vocabulary, students may feel it is too difficult to understand at first. Don't be overly concerned, however, because the grammar and vocabulary will gradually take root with practice. Students can listen to dialogues on the accompanying audio aids (in MP3 format). Students are encouraged to practice regularly by listening to the audio and carefully noting pronunciation and intonation. 20 @ Vocabulary The Vocabulary section presents all the new words encountered in both the Dialogue and Practice sections of each lesson. Words that appear in the Dialogue are marked with an as- terisk (+), Words are listed according to their function in Lessons 1 and 2, and by parts of speech in Lesson 3 and all subsequent lessons. In addition, all words presented in the text are also found in the Index at the end of each volume. Words found in the Vocabulary section of each lesson appear frequently in subsequent lessons, thus encouraging students to learn little by little each day. The new words, along with their English translations, also appear in the audio material, which enables students to absorb through listening. Starting with Lesson 3, the Vocabulary section also gives the kanji rendering, but students are not required to memorize the kanji orthography. This textbook does not indicate a word’s accents. The accent of a Japanese word varies considerably, depending on region, the speaker’s age (including the generation gap between speakers), the word’s inflections, and its connection with other words in the sentence. ‘Therefore, there is no need to be overly concerned about accent, but try to imitate as closely as possible the intonation heard on the accompanying audio aids. @ Grammar Easy-to-understand grammar explanations are provided so that even those studying on their own can easily follow. Students at school should read the explanations before each class. All grammar items covered in the lesson’s Practice section are explained in the Grammar section, Grammar and vocabulary that require explanation but are not practiced are sum- marized in the Expression Notes section at the end of each Grammar section. @ Practice For each grammar point covered, Practice sections provide drills that advance in stages from basic practice to application. The intent is to enable students to gain a grasp of Japanese naturally by completing the drills in the order presented. Basic exercises that call for a single predetermined answer are marked with a [il] and re- corded with their answers on the audio aids, thus allowing students to practice and learn on their own. ‘The last part of the Practice section contains Review Exercises that help summarize what has been learned. For example, some exercises combine various topics covered in the lesson, while others require students to create dialogues by applying what was learned in the Dia- logue section. @ Culture Note ‘We have integrated a Culture Note section into each lesson, where we explain aspects of the culture and everyday life of Japan. These notes cover a wide variety of topics, ranging from matters closely linked to language, such as kinship terms, to information deeply ingrained in daily life, such as the Japanese climate. Our hope is that these comments will serve as @ springboard for students to deepen their understanding of Japanese culture even further by taking steps of their own, such as by gathering information from the Internet or by discuss ing the topics with their Japanese friends. @ Useful Expressions When necessary, we include sections on Useful Expressions at the end of the lessons in or- der to present supplementary vocabulary and phrases. These sections list expressions that are related to the lesson’s topic (as in “Time and Age” in Lesson 1) or to particular situations (as in “At the Station” in Lesson 10). The vocabulary introduced in Useful Expressions is also listed in the index of each volume. B > Reading and Writing “The Reading and Writing section aims to foster comprehension and writing ability through the study of Japanese characters and through practice in both reading and writing. After learning hiragana in Lesson 1 and katakana in Lesson 2, students begin studying kanji in Lesson 3. Each lesson after Lesson 3 is organized as follows: @ Kanjilist ‘The list contains the new kanji introduced in each lesson. Students are exposed to about 15 new characters in each lesson. Since it is probably not feasible to learn all of these at once, we encourage students to tackle a few each day. We have formatted each kanji list as follows. (1) serial number (2) kanji (3) reading (5) compounds that include the kanji vy |rlge | ARUBA) book BARUEIEA) Taran =| pte BABB IEAC) Japanese language | WRX A (PEGE SA) Mr/Ms. Yamamoto 7 [oobi [tT FR * (4) meaning (7) stroke order (© stroke count The > mark appearing next to readings in item (3) indicates the on-yomi, or the reading of the character that was imported from China. The [> mark indicates the kun-yomi, or the native Japanese reading. The sound of on-yomi and kun-yomi may change when the kanji is used in certain words. For example, the ordinary pronunciation of # is gaku, but this becomes gak when the kanji is used in the word %## (gakkoo). Such derivative readings are also included in the readings section. 22 Although some kanji have many readings, we include principally those readings that are appropriate for an elementary level course. Readings and words that are shaded should be memorized. The others are for reference, so students don’t need to memorize them. ‘The Reading and Writing section of the work- book includes practice sheets for the kanji learned in each lesson. Students should practice writing the kanji repeatedly, following the stroke order shown on the kanji list in the text- book. @ Practice GENKT I consists of kanji practice, readings for comprehension, questions about the content of the readings, and writing practice. Kanji practice is aimed at getting students accustomed to kanji through practice in various forms, such as reconstructing kanji from their compo- nent parts or making new words by combining kanji. Readings for comprehension are gen- erally short and deal with subjects familiar to the students. They assume knowledge of the vocabulary and grammar that the student has learned in the Conversation and Grammar section. New words that appear in the readings are listed. At the end of each Practice sec- tion, we suggest topics for students to write on, GENKI I] contains readings for comprehension, questions about the content of the read- ings, and writing practice. The readings introduce Japanese as it is used in a variety of areas, ranging from letters and fables to essays and advertisements. They assume knowledge of the vocabulary and grammar that the student has encountered in the lesson so far, and with each lesson the readings become longer and more difficult. New words in the readings are listed in the order in which they appear. At the end of each Practice section, we suggest top- ics for students to write on. We provide recordings of these readings in both Volumes I and II of the revised edition. ‘These are denoted by a [4] mark, Students can listen to them through the accompanying audio aids (in MP3 format). C> Appendix ‘The Appendix of Volumes I and II contains an Index. The Japanese-English Index, in hira- gana order, lists words and expressions from the Vocabulary and Useful Expression sections of each lesson (the index does not contain the vocabulary used in Culture Notes). The num- ber next to a word indicates the lesson in which the word was introduced. In the English- Japanese Index, English equivalents to Japanese words are arranged in alphabetical order. In both indexes of this revised edition, verbs are indicated with [ru] [u] [irr.], to show which verb group they belong to. Also included in the Appendix are a map of Japan with the names of all the prefectures, a table of changes in the sounds of numbers and counters, and a table of verb conjugations. Introduction »>» 23 IV Orthography and font ‘The basic text is written in kanji and hiragana. In the case of kanji, we follow the official Joyo Kanji list. However, hiragana is used instead when the Joyo Kanji equivalent is deemed un- necessary for beginning students of Japanese. ‘The pronunciation of every kanji in the Conversation and Grammar section is indicated in hiragana so that this section can be studied alone. To lessen the burden on the students and allow them to study on their own, however, the “Greetings” unit and Lessons 1 and 2 are written in hiragana and katakana, alongside which the same statement is presented in romanization. The romanizations are purely for supplemental purposes and students should avoid relying on them too much. Students study hiragana and katakana in Lessons 1 and 2, respectively, of the Reading and Writing section. Students begin studying kanji in Lesson 3 of the Reading and Writing section. To encour age students to maintain a firm grasp of the kanji they have learned, the Reading and Writ- ing section does not provide hiragana readings for kanji that have already been introduced. The Japanese in the basic text is set mainly in the Textbook font, which resembles hand- writing and serves as a good model for students. Students will encounter a variety of fonts used for Japanese materials, however, and should be aware that the shape of some characters differs considerably, depending on the font used. Note especially that in certain fonts two separate strokes may merge into a single stroke because they mimic the characters produced by a writing brush. Example: ‘Textbook font Mincho font Gothic font Handwriting rok Ode Ol UO FH OH Ay OY YS Ae Nk cS * ) b xr? heise Japanese Writing System ‘There are three kinds of characters in Japanese: hiragana, katakana, and kanji.’ All three characters can be seen in a single sentence. be # katakana kanji = tT. I watch television. hiragana Hiragana and katakana, like the alphabet, represent sounds. As you can see in the above ex- ample, hiragana has a roundish shape and is used for conjugation endings, function words, and native Japanese words not covered by kanji. Katakana, which has rather straight lines, is normally used for writing loanwords and foreign names. For example, the Japanese word for “television” is written in katakana as # V E (terebi). Kanji, or Chinese characters, represent not just sounds but also meanings. Mostly, kanji are used for nouns and the stems of verbs and adjectives. @Hiragana 1. Basic Hiragana Syllables ‘There are forty-six basic hiragana syllables, which are listed below. Once you memorize this chart, you will have the skill to transcribe all of the Japanese sounds. There is another writing system called rdmaji (Roman letters) which is used for station names, signs, and so on. Japanese Writing System +++ 25 _ ra ri 2 2 8 * ‘The syllables L, , >, and are romanized as shi, chi, tsu, and fu re- spectively, to closely resemble English pronunciation. a J °"£ isalso pronounced as “wo.” Be ‘The romanization is given for general pronunciation reference. 2. Hiragana with Diacritical Marks You can transcribe 23 additional sounds by adding diacritic marks. With a pair of short diagonal strokes (” ), the unvoiced consonants k, s, f, and h become voiced consonants g, 2 d, and b, respectively. The consonant h changes to p with the addition of a small circle (* ). ae ¥ < iF z | se | ge ge = 7 as e ze za ji au ze 0 Efe fs | tle da ji zu de io (f u 3 x“ (F ba |i bu be bo ve Ted *& (ji) and J (zu) are pronounced the (f u 3 a (f same as U (ji) and + (zu), respec- pa Pi ad F po tively, and have limited use. 3. Transcribing Contracted Sounds Small ¥, 1D, and £ follow after letters in the second column (i-vowel hiragana, except \) and are used to transcribe contracted sounds. The contracted sound represents a single syl- lable. 26 ae) am) ee ¥e | ¥o | ¥2 fya | kyu kyo ga gu 90 Le | Lo} le Ce] Ue] Us | sha | shu ‘sho ‘ja “ju jo | Bel} bo] be cha chu cho | _ Ile | ko | leak . —— rye | a ” Oh On Can Be | Uo Us ba _| bw | be tm | yw | ye Ue Ue) Oe Ar Ano) AL Pye pu | Pye mya | “myn | “myo Ye) Uo) Ue ya ry n0 4. Transcribing Double Consonants ‘There is another small letter, 2, which is used when transcribing double consonants such as ttand pp. Examples: #.of katta (won) cf. #* kata (shoulder) 5% sakka (writer) [Lol£ happa (leaf) Xs zasshi (magazine) Note double consonant n’s as in sannen (three years) are written with 4 + a hiragana with an initial n sound (#2, (2, 4, 4, and ®). Examples: %A424 sannen (three years) HANS annai (guide) 5. Other Issues Relating to Transcription and Pronunciation A. Long Vowels When the same vowel is placed one right after the other, the pronunciation of the vowel becomes about twice as long as the single vowel. Be sure to hold the sound long enough, because the length of the vowel can change one word to another. Japanese Writing Syster 27 aa BILHXA obaasan (grandmother) cf. BIE* A obasan (aunt) ii BUWAA ojiisan (grandfather) ce BUSA ojisan (uncle) uu FIU suuji (number) ee ‘The long ee sound is usually transcribed by adding an \ to an e-vowel hiragana. ‘There are a few words, however, in which @ is used instead of \y. ava eega (movie) BATA oneesan (big sister) 00 The long 00 sound is in most cases transcribed by adding an 3 to an o-vowel hiragana. There are, however, words in which the long vowel is transcribed with an &, for historical reasons. 1235.9 — hooritsu (law) ts too (ten) B. Pronunciation of Av A “n” is treated like a full syllable, in terms of length. Its pronunciation varies, however, depending on the sound that follows it. Japanese speakers are normally not aware of the different sound values of {.. Therefore, you do not need to worry too much about its pronun- ciation.” C. Vowels to Be Dropped ‘The vowels i and w are sometimes dropped when placed between voiceless consonants (ks, f, p,and h), or at the end of an utterance preceded by voiceless consonants. Example: $2 TF s(u)kides(u) (1like it.) D. Accent in the Japanese Language Japanese has pitch accent: all syllables are pronounced basically either in high or low pitch. Unlike English stress accent in which stressed syllables tend to be pronounced longer and louder, in Japanese each syllable is pronounced approximately in equal length and stress. ‘The pitch patterns in Japanese vary greatly, depending on the region of the country. ? One variety of the A. pronunciation merits discussing here. When it is followed by a vowel or at the end of an utterance, A. indicates that the preceding vowel is long and nasalized. (Nasalized vowels are shown here with a tilde above vowel letters. You hear nasalized vowels in French words such as “bon,” or the English interjection “ub-ub,” as in “no.") ex. MLB real (romance) (24 hd (book) Followed by nt, d, and zsounds, 4 is pronounced as “n.” ex. BAt ona (woman) Followed by m, p, and b sounds, 4 is pronounced as “m.” ex. SALE sampo (stroll) Followed by k and g sounds, & is pronounced as “ng” asin “song.” ex. 44% mayga (comics) 28 Examples: 4 * sal (morning) wer gg’ (ame) \ nO Ge aa (high) @Katakana [r]a]9 + x | a i 4 e ° 4 + 2 7 a ka ki ku ke ko 4 Y z + Y sa “shi su se so a ia y Tr k ta “chi *tsu te to | = 7 na ni nu ne no ZN E 7 eS ins ha hi ft he ho Zz 3 4 | = ma mi mu me mo +, a2 a ya yu yo 7 ) wv L 0 ra ri mw re 0 | Wi 7 | |__ wa Ly “the syllables ¥, +, Y,and 7 are 5 - romanized as shi, chi, tsu, and fu, re- 7 spectively, to closely resemble English n pronunciation, go NEN 8 ey z0 __ Japanese Writing System >>» 29 1 =-t I | F y F | F da ji zu de | do ay E ~ aR ba bi bu be bo > eo a “# (ji) and 7 (zu) are pronounced the ve e ZF os aR same as 7 (ji) and X (zu), respec- pa pi pu pe po tively, and have limited use Fy | ta Ha Fr) Fa | Fa) kya kyu kyo | sya su ye Yr | val val vr Ya sha shu sho ja jo Fr | Fa | Fa cha chu | cho =+ =-2 =a 1 nya oe wa E+ | Ea) Eg Ey | Ean) Ea ee ea bya byw ye Er | Ea | ba ly So) Ig pya | py yo mya nyu | nyo Yr | Ya) Ya rya nyu ryo The pronunciation of katakana and its combinations are the same as those of hiragana, ex- cept for the following points.

Example: € R-v > I wv 30 (2) Additional combinations with small vowel letters are used to transcribe foreign sounds which originally did not exist in Japanese. Examples: 74 OTA harowiin (Halloween) Ox haiwee (highway) or mineraruwootaa (mineral water) yen shefu (chef) Yu jeemusu (James) Fx chekku (check) Ir fasshon (fashion) 74 firipin (Philippine) 7x kafe (cafe) a4 fooku (fork) F4 paatii (party) F4 F4ARa-Fy ek Dizuniirando (Disneyland) F2 Faxtyth dyuetto (duet) (3) The sound “v” is sometimes written with *%. For example, the word “Venus” is some- times written as E—+ % or V4 — FR. Kanji are Chinese characters which were introduced to Japan more than 1,500 years ago when the Japanese language did not have a writing system. Hiragana and katakana evolved later in Japan based on the simplified Chinese characters. Kanji represents both meanings and sounds. Most kanji possess multiple readings, which are divided into two types: on-yomi (Chinese readings) and kun-yomi (Japanese readings). On-yomi is derived from the pronunciations used in China. Some kanji have more than one on-yomi due to temporal and regional variances in the Chinese pronunciation. Kun-yomi are Japanese readings. When people started to use kanji to write native Japanese words, Japanese readings (kun-yomi) were added to kanji. By the time of high school graduation, Japanese are expected to know 2,136 kanji (called Joyo kanji), which are designated by the Ministry of Education as commonly used kanji. A total of 1,006 kanji are taught at the elementary school level, and most of the remainder are taught in junior high school. ‘There are roughly four types of kanji based on their formation, (1) Pictograms Some kanji are made from pictures: => x = FR twee) > 9 —> EY Gays sun) (2) Simple ideograms Some kanji are made of dots and lines to represent numbers or abstract concepts. aye a) > Ew) (3) Compound ideograms Some kanji are made from the combination of two or more kanji.

The rule of thumb is: if you are on the first-name basis with someone, go for the shorter versions. If you would address someone as Mr. or Ms., use the longer versions. Ohayoo is the greeting used before noon, but some people use it in casual settings in the afternoon or even at night when they see their classmates or co- workers for the first time that day. ASS» There are several good-bye expressions in Japanese, the choice among which depends on the degree of separation. Sayonara indicates that the speaker does not expect to see the person spoken to before she “turns a page in her life”; not until a new day arrives, or until fate brings the two together again. It sounds dramatic and ritualistic, and its daily use is largely restricted to school children taking leave of their teachers. Uxdb, Ek. Jaa, mata. (between friends, expecting to see each other again fairly soon) LonwLet. — Shitsureeshimasu (taking leave from a professor's office, for example) SHEA Sumimasen means (1) “Excuse me,” to get another person’s atten- tion, (2) “I’m sorry,” to apologize for the trouble you have caused, or (3) “Thank you,” to show appreciation for what someone has done for you. UIA b ie is primarily “No,” a negative reply to a question. In the dialogue, itis used to express the English phrase “Don’t mention it,” or “You're welcome,” with which you point out that one is not required to feel obliged for what you have done for them. WDTSILPLVWD THEFT /KEWE/BDA DEAL Ittekimasu and itterasshai is a common exchange used at home when a family member leaves. ‘The person who leaves says ittekimasu, which literally means “I will go and come back.” And the family members respond with itterasshai, which means “Please go and come back.” Tadaima and okaeri are used when a person comes home. ‘The person who ar- rives home says tadaima (I am home right now) to the family members, and they respond with okaerinasai (Welcome home).

There are different ways of bowing, ranging from a small nod of the head to a 45-degree bend at the waist. Generally, the longer and the deeper you bow, the more formal and respectful it appears to others Many Japanese tend to feel uncomfortable with physical contact, although handshaking is becoming quite common in business situations, especially those involving foreigners. When meeting someone in a business situation for the first time, it is customary to exchange meeshi (business cards) with a small bow. Etiquette guides list a vast number of rules and pointers, but Just remember that the important thing is to clearly show your respect when exchanging meeshi. 38 >>> SBR « SU mu be» BIESLUIEDTED New Friends a logue DvD D Mary, an international student who just arrived in Japan, talks to a Japanese student. af: VEEN Fade, Od ELUTE.

Note that none of these sentences has a “subject} like the “it? “I? and “my major,” found in their English counterparts. Sentences without subjects are very common in Japanese; Japa- nese speakers actually tend to omit subjects whenever they think it is clear to the listener what or who they are referring to. What are we to do, then, when it is not clear what is being talked about? To make explicit what we are talking about, we can say: (LEA OTH. is the Japanese language. wa nihongo desu.

Wa is a member of the class of words called “particles.” So is the word no, which we will turn. to later in this lesson, Particles attach themselves to phrases and indicate how the phrases relate to the rest of the sentence. Note also that nouns like gakusee and sensee in the above examples stand alone, unlike their English translations “student” and “teacher” which are preceded by “a.” In Japanese, there is no item that corresponds to “a,” nor is there any item that corresponds to the plural “-s” at the end of a noun. Without background situations, a sentence like gakusee desu is therefore ambiguous between the singular and the plural interpretations; it may mean “We are/you are/they are students,” as well as “I am/you are/she is a student” Question Sentences It is very easy to form questions in Japanese. Basically, all you need to do is add ka at the end ofa statement. ) wp Ia teT. pia tutta! Ryuugakusee desu. Ryuugakusee desu ka. (Lam) an international student. (Are you) an international student? ‘The above sentence, Ryuugakusee desu ka, is a “yes/no” question. Question sentences may also contain a “question word” like nan? (what). In this lesson, we learn how to ask, and answer, questions using the following question words: nanji (what time), nansai (how old), nannensee (what year in school). HKIFL RATIO. (#XK251t) AUTTH.

The phrase Sakura daigaku no gakusee means “a student at Sakura University” The second noun gakusee provides the main idea’ (being a student) and the first one Sakura daigaku makes it more specific (not a high school, but a college student). No is very versatile. In the first example below, it acts like the possessive (“xs”) in English, but that is not the only role no can play. See how it connects two nouns in the following examples.

Japanese seems to be more consistent in arranging ideas here; the main idea always comes at the end, with any further description placed before it. * Here is what we mean by the “main idea” In the phrase Takeshi san no denwa bangoo (Takeshi’s phone number), the noun denwa bangoo (phone number) is the main idea, in the sense that if something is Takeshi’s phone number, itis a phone number. The other noun Takeshi san is not the main idea, because Takeshi’ phone number is not Takeshi _ EB as ee noun, D noun, | , | | main idea | | further restriction | A phrase of the form “noun, no noun,” acts more or less like one big noun.

Watashi wa sensee desu makes sense, but may sound slightly arrogant, because the word sensee actually means an “honorable master.” If you (or a mem- ber of your family) are a teacher, and if you want to be really modest, you can use the word kyooshi instead. AvP Sart is placed after a name as a generic ttle, It goes both with a given name and a family name, Children are referred to as chan (and boys in particular as kun), rather than san. Professors and doctors are usually referred to with the title sensee. San and other title words are never used in reference to oneself.

To describe the second half of this situation, we cannot say, Patto mo amerikajin desu, because the sentence would mean that Pat, in addition to somebody that has been ‘mentioned, is an American. Neither can we say, Patto wa amerikajin mo desu. (Japanese speakers would say, Patto wa amerikajin demo arimasu.) 7In the dialogues, there are two sentences that end with desu, which call for special attention: Are mo takai desu ne (That one too is expensive), and Oishif desu yo (It is delicious). ‘These sentences cannot be negated by replacing desu with ja nai desu, because takai and oishii are not nouns. Are mo takai ja nai desu and oishit ja nai desu are therefore not grammatical. Instead, one would have to say takaku nai desu and oishiku nai desu. We will learn about the conjugation pattern of adjectives in Lesson 5. 66 >> ES SC You find several stylistic variants in negative sentences. Ja nai desu is very colloquial. The more formal replacement for nai desu is arimasen. Ja is a contraction of de wa, which is more formal and more appropriate in the written language.

Refer to the table at the end of the volume. Big numbers > In addition to the digit markers for tens (ju), hundreds (hyaku), and thousands (sen), which are found in Western languages as well, Japanese uses the marker for tens of thousands (ian). Thus 20,000, for example, is niman (=2% 10,000), rather than nijuusen (= 20 1,000). While the next unit marker in Western languages is one million, Japanese describes that number as 100 10,000, that is, hyakuman. ‘More complicated numbers can be considered the sums of smaller numbers, as in the following examples. 234,567 = 23x10,000 ICM 8AXA (nijuusanman) 4x 1,000 EAA (yonsen) 5x 100 CO” < (ohyaku) 6x 10 AX UF (rokujuu) 7 te% (nana) 68> >> S258 - SC Consre(Qap Ya (2lZA.D 452-4 Japanese Currency Nihon no okane Japan's official currency is the yen, which is pronounced en in Japanese.

Rooms were floored with tatami (rice-straw mats) and divided by fusuma or shooji (two types of sliding doors). Modern Japanese houses have mainly Western-style rooms, and are equipped with Western-style toilets. Re However, most bathrooms retain traditional character- istics—they are separated from toilets and sinks, and have some space for washing one’s body outside the bathtub. Usually, all family members share the same bathtub water, so it is necessary to clean one’s body before getting into the bathtub.

(“I did this and did that”) ‘The conjugation paradigm of te-forms is complex, as we need to learn separate rules for ru-, u-, and irregular verbs, Furthermore, the rule for u-verbs is divided into five subrules. First, with ru-verbs, the rule is very simple: Take 4 offand add T. ru-verbs u-verbs with final 5, , and! $2 + fot 2 - fot cS > €2T u-verbs with final & , ii, and ¥ BO + MAT a BAT | FED - rE Ae ‘As we discussed in Lesson 3 (see page 89), some verbs that end with the hiragana % are ru-verbs and some others are u-verbs.

A common mistake is to assume that the simple paradigm provided by the ru-verbs (RST and &* #4) covers the u-verbs also, thus coming up with unwar- ranted forms such as x BVT (see HVE F) and XAT (see HE% FF). It is probably easier, at this stage of learning, to memorize each verb asa set, as in # < —* Et te ’ T, than to apply the conjugation rules on the spot. Refer to the verb conjugation table at the end of this volume (p. 382). SSE) Use a verbal te-form together with ¢ 7: 2» \» to make a polite request to another person “please do . .. for me.

We will learn a softer way to say “please don't” in Lesson 8. Ba Describing Two Activities You can use a te-form if you want to combine two or more verbs, as in describing a sequence of events or actions (“I did this and then | did that”). In other words, the te-form does the work of “and” with verbs. (Note that two verbs cannot be joined by &, which only connects nouns.) This fe-form conjunction can be used for present and future, as in the first and third examples below, and for the past, as in the second example. The tense of the verb at the end of each sentence determines when these events take place. * In casual speech, you can drop & and say #2 TAM TH as well as LX T $A TH. In contrast, [2 in the construction TI2\ IF & 4E A, which is discussed in the next section, cannot be dropped. BOWE» 153 Jab EEN T ae-LéEt.

The te-form of a verb can also be used to connect a verb more “loosely” with the rest of a sentence. In the first example below, the verb in the te-form describes the manner in which the action described by the second verb is performed. In the second example, the ¢e-form describes the situation for which the apology is made. ARK CT, RHIATE ET Igo to work by bus. (take a bus to work, HMBERNT THRU.

Compulsory education comprises six years of elementary school and three years of junior high school. Although not compulsory, over 95% of junior high students go on to high school for three years. About half of high school graduates attend a university or junior co!- lege, Admission to high schools and universities is usually based on an entrance exam.
