Kyaa, wala akong magawa so eto ang resulta. XD Credits muna sa sumulat ng librong ito; Yukihiro Shimamura.

Okay, let's start? I know lesson 1's heck easy! XD pero, wala lang talaga akong magawa ngayon so yeah! ayan! XD and syempre, must start with lesson 1. HAHA

Lesson 1--Greetings and sentence construction

Daily Expressions

1. Ohayoo gozaimasu -- "Good morning"
2. Konnichiwa -- "Good afternoon"
3. Konbanwa -- "Good evening"
4. Hajimemashite -- "How do you do?"
5. Doozo yoroshiku -- "I'm glad to meet you."

Spoiler:

Notes:

As to number one:

This expression is a formal greeting used in addressing a superior, or in any situation requiring formality. When speaking to equals or inferiors, gozaimasu may be omitted.


As to number four:

This expression which literally means "For the first time" (to see you) corresponds to "How do you do?" or "I'm glad to meet you" in English.


As to number five:

This expression literally means "Please be good to me (from now on)" or "How do you do?". It is similar to "Hajimemashite", which sounds a little formal. The two expressions are sometimes used together.

Nihongo -- S wa C desu
English -- S be V C

('S' stands for Subject; 'C' for Complement; 'V' for Verb)

Notes: 'wa' is an article normally placed after the subject. It has no English equivalent.

'desu' is used for English be-verb (is, am, are) and always placed at the end of a sentence.

Examples

[N] Watashi wa Malvar desu.
[E] I am Mr. Malvar.

[N] Anata wa Inoue san desu.
[E] You are Mr. Inoue.

[N] Kare wa Quintos san.
[E] He is Mr. Quintos.

[N] Kanojo wa Tamura san.
[E] She is Mrs. Tamura.

The conjugation of be-verb 'desu'

affirmative-- desu (present) ; deshita (past)
negative -- dewa arimasen (present) ; dewa arimasen deshita
interrogative -- desu ka (present) ; deshita ka (past)

affirmative -- S wa C desu (deshita)
negative -- S wa C dewa arimasen (dewa arimasen deshita)
interrogative -- S wa C desu ka (deshita ka)
