    い Adjectives: Positive to Negative


    Adjectives modify/describe nouns. For example, in the English sentence, “My ears are big.” big
    is the adjective describing my ears. In Japanese most adjectives end in い in the positive, present
    tense. To make the adjective negative, the い at the end of the adjective is replaced with くない.

    Ex. おおきい big


    おおきくない not big

    Change the following adjectives from positive to negative, and translate both into English. Use
    the first as an example. Use your L6 vocab list to find the meaning of the adjectives. Note:
    good (いい) is irregular and changes to よくない when negative.

    1. わるい bad わるくない not bad


    2. おおきい
    3. くろい
    4. あおい
    5. ちゃいろい
    6. かわいい
    7. きたない
    8. いい＊
    9. ながい
    10. やさしい
    11. うるさい
    12. あかい
    13. ひくい
