Learn Japanese verbs : Kakeru

[reagestme]

i like japanese but all ppl who learns it quite retard besids me.

[Gonnakillyou]

So kakeru pretty much = employ/use? The last two examples throw me a bit off though. Oh well, different languages, different expressions~

what's the difference between kakeru and suru?

[Guardian016]

I'm a native speaker.

It's a very interesting and difficult question.

I think it more focuses on the object when you use kakeru. So if you say, watashi wa denwa wo kakeru, the focal point is denwa even though the subject is watashi.

On the contrary, suru simply means do.

The usage of kakeru is limited and the word is not always convertible with suru. Probably you just have to memorise what you can use kakeru for.

I hope that helps.

Thx for the message :)

@Guardian016 what's the difference between suru and chimasu ? chta and chimachta ????

[Guardian016]

@freakloulou

It's suru, shimasu, shita and shimashita.

Suru means to do sth, and shimasu is a polite form of suru.

Shita is a past tense of suru, and shimashita is a polite form of shita.

[ryuzakilawlight]

Can someone spell out the "Let's learn Japanese" ひらがなでかろうまじで？ I can't figure it out.

Spell it in Japanese?

If you're trying to spell English words with one of the Japanese alphabets it's going to work.

[ConsciousDistortion]

So it's basic function is "utilization of"

[Atsuke]

more specifically, 'holding onto' something in

such a way that you're using it. Kakerr is defined in the dictionary as 'to hang (onto)'

doraiya wo kakeru -- Blowdrying (it makes sense since you need to 'hang' on the dryer with your hand to operate it)

ongaku wo kakeru - playing music. It makes sense since Japanese is old language and back then people had to 'hang onto', or hold, an instrument in order to play a song/music.

Makes sense? Hopefully I was some help.

ARRIGATTO!!!!
