Today's lesson:

Unfortunately, a while back, I was writing a blog when all of a sudden my internet failed,

More important, and crucial every day verbs!

Hello everyone, how are you?

Mina-san konbanwa, o-genki desu ka?

Today's lesson again shall emphasise on even more useful and important verbs!

Okay!

So, let's begin!

To live (reside)- Sumu

To cry- Naku

To frown-Kao wo shikameru

To smile- Hohoemi

To perform- Okonau

To follow- Ni tsuite iku (person) Tadoru (path,route)

To lose- Nakusu (object) Ni makeru (game, arguement)

To win- Katsu

To die- Shinu

To admire- Kanshin

To pray- Inoru

To compose- Enso suru

To join in- Sankasuru

To observe- Kansatsu suru

To walk- Aruku (by foot) Sanposuru (pleasure, excercise)

To learn- Manabu

To jump- Tobiagaru

To sneak- Kossori hairu

To crouch- Uzukumaru

To compare- (ni) Hitteki suru

Masu is used after certain verbs, usually verbs of movement in a sentence. It cannot be used alone.

Suru is a verb meaning "to do". Combining it with certain words makes the whole thing a verb. This is usually the case with phrases that are Chinese in origin, like benkyou-suru. Benkyou itself means something like forceful application, but benkyou-suru has come to mean study.

Suru has a irregular polite form of shimasu. That's all you have to remember for that.

Suru, Narau, and Hanasu are the plain forms of the verbs. This is the form that you will find in the dictionary. You would probably use them with friends, but not with strangers or polite company.

Shimasu, Naraimasu, and Hanashimasu are the corresponding inflected polite forms.

THANK YOU FOR READING!
