 Konnichiwa everybody and welcome to the class. Well, we will not waste any time over here and immediately start our lesson. In our previous classes we have been doing adjectives and we covered if I am not mistaken eye adjectives. So, well today we will continue with adjectives and try to do the other adjective which is the na-adjective. So, we will do now na-adjectives today, but before I actually start telling you about na-adjectives and about other things, well we will go over the assignments and see what you have done and you can also check whether what you have done is correct or not. So, the first assignment over here is look at the pictures and practice the dialogue given below with adjectives. So, all you have to do is look at these pictures over here and put eye adjectives over here. Nani wo kaimasu ka? You have to put the adjective as you know, adjective tells you about the noun. So, adjective noun o kaimasu. So, whatever the picture please put the adjective for that picture and use it. So, what do we have over here? Well, akai kuruma o kaimasu. So, in this manner you can actually do a small dialogue, talk to your friend, ask your friend and your friend can answer or your friend can ask you and you can look at the picture and answer. So, the second one is atarashii and the picture is kasa of an umbrella. So, well atarashii kasa o kaimasu. Now, the third one is tebukuro, tebukuro is gloves and it is shiroi, so shiroi tebukuro o kaimasu. Now, you have a coat over here, koutou and you have takai which is expensive. So, nani wo kaimasu ka? Takai koutou o kaimasu. And then, you have chocolates over here, chokorei to oishi, so nani wo kaimasu ka? Watashi wa is of course understood, the subject is always understood and during conversation you can actually omit the subject. So, well oishi chokorei to o kaimasu. Now you can practice that. The second assignment is, as we have been doing all the time, is match the words in column A with words in column B. So, we have these words listed in roman for you and the meanings are in English. So, let us see, aoi is blue, takai, murasaki, nagai and you can see what the meaning is, hiroi, chiisai, it is chiisai and not chisai. It is not a small sound, it is a long sound, chiisai, tsumaranai, chairoi and the last one is kawaii which is cute. Again, there is a double sound over here, kawaii, so it is a long sound, it is two syllables over there. So, please keep that in mind. Now, write hiragana or katakana for the words given below, atsui, akarui, akarui is bright. I am sure you remember from your previous lessons, sumetai is sumetai as in touch. When you touch something, then it is cold, that is sumetai and not the weather is sumetai. Weather is samui, nagai, akai, pikuniku. This is in katakana over here, remon, re-mo-n. So, try to do these words in katakana, omoshiroi, oki, orenji. Now, the fourth assignment over here is look at the pictures below and fill in the blanks with kanji characters. So, the pictures are given over here at the bottom, you have a rose, an elephant, some oranges, washing machine, a clock and you have June written over here. Let us see what the assignment is, hanawa, hana is a flower, hanawa akai desu or you can name the hana as well and say, barawa akai desu. Then we have, zo-sanwa oki desu. Now, you would wonder as to why we are using san over here. Well, san is just for being sweet to zo-san and because zo-san is so big for the hugeness of zo-san, we use san over there, zo-sanwa oki desu. Then we have, mikan wa mitsu arimasu, 1, 2, 3, mitsu arimasu. Then, sentaki, sentaki is a washing machine, sentaki wa okii desu. Basu wa roku-ji ni roku-ji ni kimasu, then natsu yasumi wa roku-gatsu ni arimasu. Natsu yasumi is summer and yasumi is holiday. So, summer vacations wa roku-gatsu ni arimasu. Well, I hope you got this right. You got the kanji characters right. Now, fill in the blanks with proper verb forms. So, let us see what the verbs are here. Mai-nichi nan-ji ni okimasu ka? Kinou watashi wa tomodachi no uchi e ikimashita. So, the verb is ikimashita and past is for kino over here. Kodomo wa ashita ga ko e ikimasen negitu, nichi-obi ni kazoku to issho ni pikniku e ikimasu. Nichi-obi could also be mass form which is future and could also be past form because we do not know when the nichi-obi was. Oto-toi watashi to tomodachi wa ega wo mimashita. Now you can see, ta form is given over here, mashita form is given over here, that is for oto-toi past, that is, day before yesterday. Raigetsu no mikka ni sensei no uchi ni party ga arimasu. Now this is a statement over here, thus ga and mikka ni. So, please remember ni and ga, this is a pattern with arimasu where place ni something ga arimasu. Now tomodachi wa kurumade kaisha e kimasu. So why kimasu? Because this person over here, whosoever is stating this is already in office and thus it is kimasu and not ikimasu. Kiru-gohan wo tabemashouka shall we have, getsi youobi ni Rao-san wa kaisha e kimasen deshita. So in past, now this was your assignment and I hope you all did it properly. And you remember what you have done? You have done your forms, you have done your verb forms, you have done your adjectives, i adjectives. So, I hope you all remember all that you have done. Now in our last lesson, we did de-form in a set of things, what is cheap, what is expensive, what is big or what is small. We are again going to do article de today over here. Now you see, I will just read the dialogue for you, a and b. Suika wa ikura desu ka? Suika wa senien desu. Sore wa nihongo de nan desu ka? Kore wa sakuranbo desu. Sakuranbo wa ikura desu ka? Sakuranbo no basuketou wa gohaku en desu. So well, you can look at the picture and see there are two people standing and he is pointing at this object over here and he wants to know what it is called in Japanese. Look at this over here, for this gentleman it is sore and for this gentleman it is kore. So, kore wa or sore wa nihongo de over here, de means in, nihongo de nan desu ka? So what is it called in Japanese, kore wa sakuranbo desu. Is that alright? De particle de as we are doing now, nihongo de in Japanese or e-go-de in English or hindi go-de, in-do go-de nan desu ka? So what is it called in a certain language? Now you can practice it over here, look at the picture and ask what it is called in Japanese. You can look at the picture over here, it is a picture of Momo, which is peach. Let us see what the question is, kore wa nihongo de nan desu ka? A simple question, you can do these questions, practice them with your partner and it is easy later on when you are doing dialogue, Momo desu. Simple answer, Momo desu. We have another picture for you, astre or haizara. So let us see what the question is, haizara wa e-go-de nan desu ka? What is it? Astre desu. Now we have another picture over here, this is gloves. So well, the question is, gloves wa nihongo de nan desu ka? Tebukuro desu. So this is how you can ask anything about anything, what it is called in a certain language or what it is in a certain language. Now we have been doing adjectives, we have done i adjectives as I told you in the beginning in our last lesson. Now today we will do na adjectives, what did you eat at the hotel, hotel de nani wo tabemashita ka? Well now listen to this audio dialogue and let us see how much you understand. Ningeno party wa do deshita ka? Ningenakana party deshita. Kaijo wa doko deshita ka? Yume na Taju hotel deshita yo. Ah, so desu ka. Amitsu san kimashita ka? Kimasen deshita. Demo Neha san kimashita yo. Hitori de? Iie, kaisha no tomodachi to issho ni kimashita. Party de oishimono tabemashita ka? Taksa no oishimono tabemashita. Well, the dialogue is between the two of them. Party de oishimono tabemashita ka? Taksa no oishimono tabemashita. Well, the dialogue is between Arun san and Rao san. I will just read the dialogue out to you and then explain. Senshu no party wa do deshita ka? Ningenakana party deshita. Doko deshita ka? Yume na Taju hotel deshita yo. So desu ka. Amitsu san kimashita ka? Kimasen deshita. Demo Neha san kimashita yo. Hitori de? Iie, kaisha no tomodachi to issho ni kimashita. Party de oishimono tabemashita ka? Taksa no oishimono tabemashita. Well, this is a simple dialogue between Arun and Rao. And there are quite a few new words actually and I will just explain them to you. Senshu last week no party wa do deshita ka? We did this phrase earlier as well. Do deshita ka means how was it? Ningenakana party deshita. It was a very lively party. Kaijo wa doko deshita ka? Kaijo is place where the party was held. Yume na Taju hotel deshita yo. Yume na. You will see, na is used over here after these words. So well, they are na adjectives and I will explain why na is used over here a little later. For the time being, yume means very very famous. Yume na Taju hotel deshita yo. So desu ka. Amitsu san kimashita ka? Kimasen deshita. He did not come. Demo neha san kimashita yo. Demo means but. It is a conjunction as you have done soshite which is also a conjunction but it starts a sentence. This is a little different from the conjunctions that we do in English. Hitori de alone again de is used over here. We have done de in the previous lesson. Hitori de means alone. Iie, kaisha no tomodachi to issho ni kimashita, he came with his friends from the office. Party de oishimono wo tabemashita ka? Party de, again we have another de over here. Oishimono wo tabemashita ka? Did you eat good things at the party? Oishimono wo tabemashita. So this is the explanation, very very short explanation, details will follow. This is in the script. You can see how Kanji Katakana and Hiragana are used and this is your explanation in English. One thing I would like to tell you is that this explanation may not be a translation of what we have done just now. This is what one would say in English. We are going to do nai adjectives now. Ijectives as I told you earlier are all words ending in I in the end. They are Japanese words, but nai adjectives are words of Chinese or foreign origin. You have to please remember that and why they are like this is because most of the time these adjectives have two Kanji characters which are obviously Chinese in origin and all I adjectives will always have a character and some Hiragana in the end. Now you can read all these examples over here are Onna no hito wa kirei desu. The woman is beautiful, kirei na onna no hito desu. So now you can see that na is there. How and why na is used? We will discuss it over here. Na adjectives are kirei genki yumei. We did one over here in the kaiva that was ningi yaka. So these are some na adjectives. Of course you can say that they also have an I in the end, but these are exceptions and you have to remember them like that. Now mariko san wa kirei desu. Now what do you understand from this? Well, this is a simple statement, mariko san wa kirei desu. Mariko san is pretty. Now if I say kirei na mariko san desu. So I am talking of mariko san, that mariko san kirei na mariko san desu. Mariko san is very very beautiful and now this is a noun. This is an adjective as we did just now over here. When you place an adjective before a noun, then na is to be put in between. Na comes over here. Over here you can see mariko san wa kirei desu, adjective and verb. So in such a case, na is not going to be used, but if you place or use a na adjective before a noun like this, in this case, then na will come. Another example we can have is kodomo wa genki desu. The child is very very happy and healthy in good shape, genki na kodomo desu. The child is very very happy in good health, genki na kodomo desu. So please in such a manner when you will have adjective and noun over here, then na is going to be used. Please remember that with na adjectives that is very very important. All adjectives as you know tell more about noun, talk about the noun, give you more information as to how or what the noun is. So over here you can use kirei and genki and any of the adjectives like this, but with a na before the noun. Now the example over here is shizuka na kodomo desu. He is a quiet child, kodomo wa shizuka desu. The child is quiet, he is quiet at the moment, but over here he is a quiet child. So that is the difference, but in a broad way the meaning does not change that much. Well now some na adjectives for you, you can repeat after me. The roman is given over here in the first column, then you have hiragana and then the meaning in English. So well, genki, kirei, shizuka, ningiyaka, hima, hima is free time, rippa, rippa can be a person and rippa can also be a building or something can also be rippa. So please remember a stately grand person who has a very good personality, something which is grand, big is rippa, informed also it is grand and big it is rippa, then benri, benri is convenient. So anything can be benri, of course person cannot be benri, a book can be benri, it could be convenient to use, a jisho could be benri which is a dictionary, kurma could be benri, it is convenient to drive, a road could be benri, it is easy to use the road, it is free of traffic, it has less signals and it is a smooth road, good road, so it could be benri. Then majime is honest, serious hard working person is majime, majime na hito desu. Now you can look at the picture and practice benrina jisho desu, as I just told you, benrina jisho desu, kirei na tokoro desu, tokoro is a place, kirei na oyome san desu, oyome san is a bride, kirei na oyome san desu. Then we have shinsetsu na kata desu, shinsetsu is kind, so this gentleman we could call him Tanaka san is offering his umbrella over here on a rainy day, so shinsetsu he is a kind person. Then what do we have here, it is a classroom kyoshitsu and majime na kakusei desu, majime is they are all very hard working students, majime na kakusei desu. And then this last one over here is genkina kotomo desu, well we have some morna adjectives for you, stekina onna no hito desu, then we have someone singing, jouzu na kashiu desu, jouzu is someone who is very good at something, skilled at something and kashiu is a singer, so well jouzu na kashiu san desu. Then we have yume na chef san desu, yume is very famous, so yume na chef san desu. And then what do we have over here in this picture, hansamuna hito desu, this gentleman over here, very good looking, hansamuna hito desu. So you can also see that lot of English words can be used as na adjectives, beautiful pretina onna no hito desu, beautiful na onna no hito desu. Then we have kirei na hana desu and yume na sumo san desu. So we have these na adjectives, you can practice, learn and make sentences. Now Mariko san wa shinsetsu desu. We have this statement over here, Mariko san is shinsetsu. Now you can replace Mariko san over here with whatever vocabulary you have done and you can replace shinsetsu with any of the other na adjectives that you have done and make sentences. For example, Oto san wa genki desu. Oka san wa tenei desu, tenei is very very polite, sensei wa rippa desu. Kono hito wa yume desu, tokyou wa kirei desu. So you can also make statements like this and also you can do something very simple. You can have a small dialogue with your friend, you can ask and answer. For example, here it is given A and B, Mariko san wa shinsetsu na hito desu ka hai, shinsetsu na hito desu. So what you can do now is, Mariko san wa shinsetsu desu, one it is a statement. You can replace shinsetsu with any of the na adjectives that you have done yume and Mariko san again. You can replace with all the vocabulary that we have done earlier. For example, tomo dachi imo to oka san and any other vocabulary that you remember wa shinsetsu desu. Also you can put a ka over here and ask a question. Mariko san wa shinsetsu desu ka? So the answer would be either in hai or no. So we will practice hai for the time being and hai shinsetsu desu. Tomodachi wa yume desu ka hai yume desu as is given over here in the slide for you. Well, you can see now, the second one is Mariko san wa shinsetsu na hito desu ka hai shinsetsu na hito desu. So over here, Mariko san wa shinsetsu na hito. You have done this desu ka hai shinsetsu na hito desu. Is it alright? I am sure you can understand this, it is given over here as well. So you can practice from here, Mariko san wa shinsetsu na hito desu ka hai shinsetsu na hito desu. For Mariko san instead of Mariko san, you can place any of these, Imouto san wa shizuka na hito desu ka hai shizuka na hito desu. Tomodachi wa tenei na hito desu ka and instead of hito. If you really want to be very polite, you can also use kata which is given over here. So tomodachi wa tenei na kata desu ka hai tomodachi wa tenei na kata desu. Kono tatemono wa yume desu ka hai kono tatemono wa yume na tatemono desu. Tokyo wa kirei na tokoro desu ka hai Tokyo wa kirei na tokoro desu. So you can practice like this, use na this time and practice. Now look at the pictures and answer the questions using adjectives. So let us see what the picture is. Well you have a sweater which is a seita in Japanese and nekutai. So what is the question over here? Tomodachi no tanjoubi desu. Nani wo agimasu ka? This is to give steaky na nekutai wo agimasu or takai seita wo agimasu. Now what do we have now? Someone listening to music and someone driving a car. So what is the question? Ashita yasumi desu. Nani wo shimasu ka? Atarashii ongaku wo kikimasu or omoshiroi tokoro e ikimasu. What is next now? Well we have a lot of fruits over here. Kudamono ga arimasu, takusan kudamono ga arimasu, soshite kouto arimasu. So what is the question? Okaasan ni nani wo okurimasu ka? Okurimasu is to send. Okaasan ni nani wo okurimasu ka? Oishi kudamono wo okurimasu or kirei na kouto wo okurimasu. So you can practice like this. Now we had demo in our conversation in the beginning. As I told you it is a conjunction. It is a joining particle and it shows contrast between two things. But one thing you really have to remember is that it is contrast between two similar things and not two things from different sets. You cannot say that I had coffee and I went to school. Nothing like that. You cannot use those two. You have to have things of the same set as in the example over here. For example, tanaka san ni aimashita demo honda san ni aimasen deshita. You cannot say tanaka san ni aimashita demo keiki wo tabemasen deshita or nemashita. Which is wrong? You have to have of the same set as over here kocha wo nomimasu demo kohi wo nomimasen. So you show contrast between two things of a similar set that you have this and you do not have this. You do this or you do not do this or you go here and you do not go over there. So please remember with demo though you show contrast but it has to be of the same set. Watashi wa niku wo tabemasu demo yasai wo tabemasen. Watashi mo yasai wo tabemasen. Now for watashi again you can replace it with any of this over here and for the noun nikuen yasai as is given in the example you can replace it with biru, wine or tamago niku or juice, milk. So you can see that it belongs to a certain set, its beverages over here, this is non vegetarian food over here and this is something that you drink. So accordingly you will use the verb in these sentences. Now we have done a lot of de, we have done for transport, we have done for a group of things. Today we did with nihongo de, now there is another set you do of de with. Another way of using de is with numbers, hitori de, futari de, sannin de, hitori is one, futari is two, sannin is three, minna de is all. So with everyone, only one person hitori de alone, futari de, two of us sannin de, three people. So with numbers you will use de as is given over here, hitori de ikimasu, minna de ikimashou. Let us all go, I will go alone or kaisha no hito to issho ni ikimasu, I will go with someone from the office, so please this is how they is to be used. Now as you can see it is written over here, when a question word combines with particle mo, as nanimo it has a negative meaning. So for example, if you say ashita nanio shimasu ka, what will you do tomorrow, ashita nanimo shimasen, I will not do anything. Kino nanio shimashita ka, kino mo nanimo shimasen deshita, I did not do anything yesterday also. Now if you look at the example over here, kesa nanio nomimashita ka, juice o nomimashita is one answer. Then you can also say, nanimo nomimashita deshita, I did not have anything in the morning, kesa is today morning, kesa nanio tabemashita ka, what did you have in the morning, well you can say nanimo tabemashita deshita, I did not have anything or you can also say what you have eaten for example, panto tamago o tabemashita. So you can use it like this, nanimo can be used in daily conversation and it means nothing and always has a negative verb in the end. Please remember that that is important with nanimo, verb is always negative. You can practice this nanimo over here, kesa nanio nomimashita ka, nanimo nomimasen deshita, kino nanio nomimashita ka or kino nanio tsukurimashita ka, tsukurimasen deshita, I did not make anything and you can practice like this over here. Now as we have been doing hiragana in our previous lessons, well there is hiragana for you here, this series is the na series or the na sound or letter n, na and you can see the stroke order how it is given, please practice, so na and like this, so the stroke order of course for this is 1, 2, 3 and then 4, na, ni, nu it is coming up very nicely and clearly I am sure, so you can practice it, ne and try to actually write it in a block in a maths notebook where you have big blocks and try to place the letter in a manner that it is right in the centre and it looks proportionate or you could also practice it on a graph paper actually that would make it even more easy and convenient, no and you have it all in one, you can look at the stroke order and practice at home, make it a number of times only then it will become clear and easy for you. See how it is done, it looks proportionate in a square. Now we have done these body parts, me, hana, kuchi, ha, mimi, te, ashi, kao, so well let us see what it is, me, hana, kuchi, ha, mimi, te and ashi and then we have kao, so it is not c o w, it is k a o, please remember that and of course this part over here, this is the head that is called atama, I will just write it down for you, atama and please do not pronounce it as atma, it is atama, please remember that then we have done a lot of kanji in our previous lessons, today also we will do some kanji characters, the first one over here is mimi which you did just now in the picture, so well I will just make mimi for you, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 like this it ends over here, once again 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 like this, so this is mimi, mimi, mimi, mimi and the next one is go, we have been doing learning nihongo for the past so many days now, nihon, you have done, you already know nihon well go, it is a combination of some characters, this character over here means to say or to speak, now this you have already done, ichi ni san shi and go and this of course also you have done which is kuchi, so nihon go it is like this, nihon and go, nihon go so go is given over here it means language and then of course the last one is hon which I just did with you, this is ichi, this is jyu, this is ki and this is hon, now this is a ki which you cut, you make paper and from paper you make hon, so you cut a ki and you make hon, that is how hon has come into being, this also has another meaning but for the time being we will just stick to hon, well now we have kanji words for you over here, you already know the words but you do not know the kanji characters and it is always good to know kanji characters because it is easy to understand. So, well we have tokyou, nihongo, hitori and tomodachi, all this you already know I will just tell you the kanji characters, well for tokyou it is to, to means east and kyou means capital, so well east of the old capital is tokyou, east of this old capital which was kyoutou or kyoutou as you know is tokyou which is the present capital of Japan. Then we also have nihongo over here, nihongo, nihon you already know, nihon we have done it a number of times, nihon which means Japan and go means language, so it is a combination of three characters to make language over here. I will make those characters for you once very, very quickly and then explain. So, well this character is one, two and then three, one, two, three, four, five, six and seven, this means to speak or to say something. The next character is go which is five, ichi, ni, san, shi and go you have already done and then this character is kuchi which again you have done. So, well trying to speak so many words from your mouth would naturally lead to speaking a language, so well this is nihongo. Then we have hitori, I will just write nihongo for you, nihon and go, nihongo and then we have hitori, one person is hitori. Now the last one we have is tomodachi which means friend which is like this, tomo and tachi, it is again a combination of a lot of kanji characters. So, once again for you one, two and three like this tomo tachi. So, these are some of the words that you actually have to do. Now you can see the stroke order, how it has been made, well the tree is over here, cut the tree and make hone out of it. Stroke order is one, two, three, four and then so it is a five stroke character. We have go over here, so let us see how many strokes are there in go, ichi, ni, san, shi, go, roku, nana, hachi, kyu, juu, juuichi, juni, juu san and juu, shi. So, we have fourteen strokes to go, you can practice it, the order is given over here. Well, this one is mimi, so we have six strokes in this character, one, two, three, four, five and then in the end we have six. So, we have six strokes, please get the order correct. Now, some words with Japanese characters, eigo, hindi go, kokugo, gengo, honjitsu, hondana, jimoku. The meanings for these words are given over here. Now, there is some vocabulary, new vocabulary in this lesson, shizuka, kantan, yume, shinsetsu, jouzu, steki, hansamu, takusan, agemasu, kanai and in the end, chikadetsu. So, the meanings are given over here and you can revise it later. Well, now we have a small expression for you, a daily expression. Look at this picture, you can see this gentleman going and this lady saying bye to him. So, well what does he say? And the time is 8 o'clock in the morning, the sun is shining bright and what does he say? Itte kimasu. The person who is leaving the house will say itte kimasu and the person who is at home will say itte irasai. So, I think that is exactly what happens when you leave your house, your mother says go and come and you say I will just go and come. Then of course, now begins your work. You have your assignments match group A with group B which we generally do. Then there are some words, you have to write hiragana for the words and you have to do fill in the blanks. Also, you have to choose the correct kanji character. Then assignment 5, listen to the conversation and answer the questions. Listen to the conversation and please answer these questions here. We will discuss the questions in our next session and in the end we have some adjectives over here. You have to take the most appropriate correct adjective and make a good sentence. So, now I leave you here. It has been a long lesson for you. I leave you here with what we have done today in class. Practice at home nicely, learn all your adjectives, make sentences with your friends and we will come back again tomorrow and do something new. Till then, bye bye. Thank you very much. Mata aimashou.
