Learning The Japanese Language
It’s not that difficult to start speaking Japanese fast, I took an online Japanese language course and started speaking the language with my Japanese friends pretty fast.
Now that you have learned some Japanese colors the next thing you need to do is learn how to use these words in a real conversation. To do this I will first need to teach you a little Japanese grammar and show you how to create sentences….?”
In Japanese if you wanted to say “what color is your car?” you would say “anata no kuruma wa nani iro desu ka”
Ok, so the word ‘anata’ means you, or in this sentence means ‘your’. Next we have the word ‘no’ which is what is called a possessive article and indicate who’s car in this sentence that we are talking about.
Now we have the word for Car which is ‘Kuruma’, and is followed by the particle ‘wa’ which is showing us that ‘car’ is the subject of the sentence.
Then comes the word for ‘what’ which is ‘nani’ which is then followed by the word for colour ‘iro’. Finally we finish with the verb ‘desu’ which means ‘is’ and the particle ‘ka’ which makes the sentence a questions.
I hope I explained the clearly for you!
Once someone has asked you that question you can reply telling them the colour of your of you car.
For this example we are going to use a red car. To say ‘my car is red’ in Japanese you would say “Watashi no kuruma wa aka desu”
Here we have the word “watashi” which means ‘I’ or in this case becomes ‘My’ and then the rest of the sentence is described already. Also remember from the video the word for red is ‘aka’.
Well there you have it, now you know Japanese colours and some basic Japanese sentences.
