How to get help in Japanese
ย
I will show you three simple steps.
ย
First: Write an action you want to achieve.
ย
Example: going to Shibuya.
ใใถใใซใใใใพใใ
Shibuya ni ikimasu.
ย
Second: Delete “ใพใ masu” and add “ใใใงใ tai desu.”
This sentence means “I want to (verb).”
ย
ใใถใใซใใใใพใใใใงใใ
Shibuya ni ikimasu tai desu.
I want to go to Shibuya.
ย
This sentence works to tell Japanese people what you want to do, but it sounds childish.
ย
So, let’s go one more step.
ย
Third: Change the “ใใใงใ tai desu” part to “ใใใใงใใ…, tain desu ga…”
This part indicates you want to do something and you need some help.
ย
ใใถใใซใใใใใใใงใใโฆใ
Shibuya ni ikitain desu ga….
I want to go to Shibuya… (Could you help me?)
ย
Now you can ask for help!
ย
For example, if you need help writing a specific kanji character,ย
say like this!
ย
ใใฎใใใใใใใใใใใใงใใโฆใ
Kono kanji wo kakitain desu ga….
I want to write this kanji (could you help?)
ย
Follow these three steps and get help from kind Japanese people.
It’s VERY simple!๐
ย
Happy learning!
