Lesson 7 Wait a minute ● Basic espressions ● Nationality ● Two more particles: yo and ne ● Kara ● Some more useful words ● How are you doing so far? Basic expressions All of this time, you've been going along learning Japanese vocabulary and grammar, but there's a chance that you don't even know simple Japanese greetings yet (through no fault of your own). So here they are, learn them well: ohayou (gozaimasu) - good morning konnichi wa - hello konban wa - good evening (said when meeting someone) oyasumi (nasai) - good night (said when departing) hajimemashite - I'm pleased to meet you, how do you do? sayounara - good bye dewa mata - good bye, later (more informal than sayounara) jaa mata - see you later (more informal than dewa mata) (doumo) arigatou (gozaimasu) - thank you (add the words in () to increase politeness) dou itashimashite - you're welcome, don't mention it (o)genki( desu ka)? - how are you? (lit. are you well?) Not the shortest list in the world, but an important one. Learn those expressions well as soon as you can. Nationality Another important topic you should know before we go any further is the way to express nationality. In English, we use suffixes like -ish, -ese, -an and sometimes it's completely irregular (HollandDutch?) In Japanese, you simply add the suffix -jin to the name of a country: Amerika + jin = Amerikajin American person Nihon + jin = Nihonjin Japanese person these words are always nouns (in English they're sometimes used as adjectives), and they only apply to people(not cars, etc.) Supeinjin desu ka. (Are you Spanish?) Iie, Itariajin desu. (No, I'm Italian.) More on Particles The particle NE The particle ne is a sentence particle, that means that it's used at the end of a sentence in the manner that ka is. It means "eh?" or "right?" As a way of looking for agreement, sometimes rhetorically. Examples: Ano tatemono wa takai desu ne. [That building as for tall is huh?] That building is tall, isn't it? Nihongo
