Thank you very much for attending today’s lesson. You talked about the reasons why you have been busy recently. We completed Lesson 02 of Advanced Class 1. Role-play activities are beneficial as they provide opportunities to use vocabulary that you do not usually use.
レッスンに来てくれてありがとうございました。 最近忙しい理由について話してもらいました。 Advanced Class 1 の Lesson 02 が終わりました。 ロールプレイでは、普段使わない言葉を使うきっかけになって良いですね。
こんばんわ！ Thank you for joining the lesson as always. It was great to see you!In today’s lesson, we practiced using Lesson 6 of the Intermediate 2 textbook in plain style.
How to Change a Verb from Masu-form to Nai-form Japanese verbs have several basic forms, and one important transformation is changing a verb from its masu-form (polite form) to its nai-form (negative plain form). The rules depend on the verb group.
1. Group 1 Verbs (U‑verbs) These verbs end with –imasu in the masu-form. Rule: Change –imasu to –anai. Examples: かきます(to write), Nai-form,かかない Explanation: き → か + ない For Group 1 verbs, remove –masu, look at the final consonant, and attach –anai. The vowel changes from i → a.
2. Group 2 Verbs (Ru‑verbs) These verbs end with –masu, but the dictionary form ends in –eru / –iru. Rule: Remove –masu and add –nai. Examples: たべます(to eat), Nai-form, たべない Explanation: For Group 2 verbs, simply drop –masu and add –nai. No stem changes occur.
3. Irregular Verbs Rule: Memorize these two. Examples: します(to do), Nai-form, しない きます(to come), Nai-form, こない Explanation: These verbs do not follow regular patterns, Please memorize them.
4. Special Case: あります → ない This verb is irregular in meaning. Note: The verb あります becomes ない in the nai-form.
You understood the plain style very well in today’s summary practice. We will continue practicing plain style in future lessons. Thank you for your effort today. おつかれさまでした。それじゃまたあした！
Today, we reviewed and wrapped up Intermediate 2. You have learned many things and a wide range of conjugations in this level. Thank you for speaking actively throughout the course—it was great to see your effort and progress.
Starting next week, we will move on to Intermediate 3. Thinking back to when we first started from the basic level, you have really worked hard and improved a lot. I’m very proud of your progress.
I hope we can continue working hard together. See you again next week!
