(L20-0-2 does not have any Speaking and Writing exercises. They have only explanation of Plain style G３ verb.)
①Improvement of Speaking and Writing
こんにちは。モトです。I am Japanese and I am teaching Japanese. In this series, I will share my practice way for N5 Beginner and Intermediate level learners who want to review.
If learners are studying Japanese only for JLPT as test preparation, it might be difficult to improve speaking and writing Japanese actually, because the test does not cover Speaking and Writing. Thus, we set a Goal to improve Speaking and Writing in this series while learning JLPT N5 Beginner topics.
Features and Advantages
・While using Practice Sheet, we try to remember Question and Response sentences as Dialogue to learn how to use word and grammar. (Using story or dialogues, it could be easier to remember them efficiently.)
・It is also good to partially hide some words in tables in Practice Sheet by hand to check your progress or you can also change part of words and make another sentence like improvisation music.
・After Speaking, through making your sentences, you can improve Writing. (Based on your sentences, it is good to make your Practice Sheet and play Dialogues with other learners.)
・I will apply Minna no Nihongo to speaking and writing practice that covers almost all topics introduced by Genki so Genki user can also use this series.
(I will cite English translation from the textbook as it is, or I try to translate some expressions by myself. Now I am also learning English so my translation and explanation could be not correct or not natural, sorry for that.)
②Explanation of G3
Plain Style
When we have conversation with friends or family, we use “Plain style (Plain Form/Short Form)” as casual speaking style. Moreover, in specific types of writings such as essay, report or news article etc., we tend to use “Plain style”. Thus, we will check how to use “Plain Style”.
Plain Style for Group 3 Verb
From Lesson1 to 19, we have learned です/ます form categorized into “Polite Style”. To introduce “Plain style” as a casual speaking way, we will compare “Polite style” and “Plain style” in dialogue Person A and B.
(Dialogue1: Polite Style by using です/ます)
A1 べんきょう しますか。
benkyou simasuka
B1 はい、 べんきょう します。
hai, benkyou simasu
B2 いいえ、べんきょう しません。
iie benkyou simasen
[We have already learned です/ます like above sentences.]
(Dialogue1’: Plain style for casual speaking way)
A1’ べんきょう する。↑
benkyou suru
B1’ うん、べんきょう する。
un benkyou suru
B2’ ううん、べんきょう し ない。
Uun benkyou si nai
[To make present affirmative in plain style, we can use “Dictionary form” so ますか in A1 becomesする in A1’. A1’ is question sentence so we have to raise the pitch at the end of sentence.
To make Present Affirmative response, I changed B1 to B1’ by using “Dictionary form” soします becomes する in B1’. （I think putting よ at the end of sentence うん、するよ。sounds more natural in usual conversation.）
To make negative response, we can use “Nai Form + ない”. し is Nai form, put ない and finally we can get しない as Plain style negative in B2’. You can also say ううん、べんきょうしないよ.]
(Dialogue2: Polite Style, past tense)
A3 べんきょうしましたか。
benkyou simasitaka
B3 はい、べんきょう しました。
hai, benkyou simasita
B4 いいえ、べんきょう しませんでした。
iie benkyou simasendeista
(Dialoguew2’: Plain style. past)
A3’ べんきょう した。↑
benkyou sita
B3’ うん、べんきょう した。
un, benkyou sita
B4’ ううん、べんきょう し なかった。
uun, benkyou si nakatta
[To make past question, we can use Taform so Tafom of します is “した”. Finally, we can get べんきょうしたas Plain style past question in A3’. We raise the pitch at the end of sentence.
To make past affirmative, we can use Taform so べんきょうしたis Plain style past affirmative in B3’.
To make past negative in Plain form, we can use Nai form =し, put なかった and we can getしなかった as Plain style past negative.
As you can see, “Plain style” consist of 4 elements “Dictionary form, Nai form+ない, Taform and Nai form+なかった” By using them, we can change ますform to “Plain style”.]
