  Japanese i-adjectives  			Part 2
Let’s review! Ok , so now we know that there are 2 types of adjectives in Japanese right? Can you remember what they are called? That’s right !  ,[object Object]
na-adjectives  ,[object Object]
Informal speech,[object Object]
Present Negative  ( is not X )
Past Affirmative ( is X )
Past Negative ( is not X ),[object Object]
True adjectives are those that end in ( i ) , hence their name , makes sense right? For example : ,[object Object]
ookii (big)
chikai (near/close)
samui (cold )
oishii (delicious)
ureshii (happy)  ,[object Object]
WRONG! 
And you’ll think to yourself (How can that be ?!, kirei ends in i- so it has to be an i-adjective! ) Well in this case  (kirei ) is a na-adjective. Why
The reason why it’s a na-adjective is because “true” i-adjectives end in ( i ) but never in (ei )! Since Kirei(pretty)ends in (ei ) it is a false  i-adjective..therefore it is called a na-adjective.
So it’s easy to identify the false i-adjectives that end in (ei) like kirei. 2. But there are other false i-adjectives that are harder to identify.      Unfortunately you will just have to memorize them.

Japanese I Adjectives Part 2

  • 1. Japanese i-adjectives Part 2
  • 2.
  • 3.
  • 4.
  • 5. Present Negative ( is not X )
  • 7.
  • 8.
  • 13.
  • 15. And you’ll think to yourself (How can that be ?!, kirei ends in i- so it has to be an i-adjective! ) Well in this case (kirei ) is a na-adjective. Why
  • 16. The reason why it’s a na-adjective is because “true” i-adjectives end in ( i ) but never in (ei )! Since Kirei(pretty)ends in (ei ) it is a false i-adjective..therefore it is called a na-adjective.
  • 17. So it’s easy to identify the false i-adjectives that end in (ei) like kirei. 2. But there are other false i-adjectives that are harder to identify. Unfortunately you will just have to memorize them.
  • 18. Check out the following list on the next slide , and notice how kirei (ei) and genki (i) are both na adjectives. (kirei) is easy to identify as a false i-adj because it ends in ei, therefore it is really a na-adj. (Genki) is the tricky one here, but this is one of the ones that you’ll just have to memorize as being na adjectives , and not an i-adjective, but don’t worry There are only a handful of na-adjectives that end in i , and ei.
  • 19. Some adjectives that seem like i-adjectives but are really na-adjectives….. Kirei(pretty/clean)  NA  kireinaきれい きれいな Benri(Convenient)  NA benrinaべんり   べんりな Suki(like/favorite) NA  sukina すき    すきな Genki(healthy/well)  NA  genkinaげんき        げんきな
  • 20. EXERCISE TIME ! Identify which are i-adjectives/na-adjectives. Ex: kirei = na adj. 1. oishii(delicious)= 2. kirei(pretty/clean)= 3. takai(expensive)= 4. kirai(dislike)= 5. ureshii(happy)=
  • 21. 6. tanoshii(fun) = 7. benri(convenient)= 8. yasui(cheap)= 9. teinei(polite)= 10. yuumei(famous)=
  • 22. RECAP In this lesson we learned that i-adjectives end in ( i ) but never in ( ei ) We also learned that there are exceptions to this rule because even though (genki)ends in i , it is still a na-adjective.
  • 23. NEW LESSONS COMING SOON ! yoshminna !, ganbatte ne!(Alright everyone ! Good luck!)
