Answers and Explanations
- どこExplanation:
「どこ」 (doko) means 'where'. It is used to ask about a place or location. When asking about a destination with a motion verb, it's often followed by particles like 「へ」 (e) or 「に」 (ni). Usage: どこ (へ/に) [Motion Verb]?
- なきゃExplanation:
「〜なきゃ」 (nakya) is an informal, colloquial contraction of 「〜なければいけない」 or 「〜なければならない」, expressing necessity ('must', 'have to'). 「帰らない (kaeranai)」 becomes 「帰らなきゃ (kaeranakya)」. Usage: [Verb stem (nai-form base)] + なきゃ.
- かExplanation:
When 「か」 (ka) is placed between two nouns or choices, it means 'or'. Here, 「今日 (kyou)か明日 (ashita)」 means 'today or tomorrow'. Usage: [Option A] か [Option B].
- がExplanation:
「が」 (ga) marks the subject, especially in response to a question word like 「だれ」 (who) or when identifying something specific. In both A's question and B's answer, 「が」 identifies the person performing the action. Usage: [Question Word/Specific Noun] が [Verb].
- にもExplanation:
「どこにも + Negative verb」 (doko ni mo + negative verb) means '(not) anywhere' or 'nowhere'. 「も」 after a question word + negative verb means 'not any~'. Usage: どこ(へ/に)も [Verb-negative form].
- がExplanation:
The pattern 「Noun が 下手 (heta)です」 (Noun ga heta desu) means 'to be bad at Noun'. The skill or subject one is bad at is marked by 「が」 (ga). Usage: [Noun] が 下手.
- がほしかったですExplanation:
「〜がほしいです」 (ga hoshii desu) expresses the desire for something. The past tense is 「〜がほしかったです」 (ga hoshikatta desu). The object desired is marked by 「が」. Usage: [Noun] が ほしいです (present) / ほしかったです (past).
- たべたほうがいいExplanation:
「〜た方がいいです (ta hou ga ii desu)」 expresses advice, meaning 'it would be better to do ~' or 'you should do ~'. It is formed using the plain past tense (た-form) of the verb. Usage: [Verb-た form] ほうがいいです.
- よExplanation:
「よ」 (yo) is a sentence-ending particle that adds emphasis, or indicates that the speaker is providing new information or a piece of advice with certainty. Usage: [Sentence] よ.
- すぎてExplanation:
「〜すぎる」 (sugiru) indicates that something is done to excess. It attaches to the stem of verbs (masu-stem). 「食べすぎる (tabesugiru)」 means 'to eat too much'. The て-form is 「すぎて (sugite)」. Usage: [Verb stem] + すぎる.
