Common Japanese Adjectives Hey guys, as promised, below is a list of what I believe to be common adjectives in Japanese! Be sure to check out my post on common Japanese verbs! In Japanese, adjectives fall under two categories, い adjectives, and な adjectives. There is one irregular adjective in Japanese that will be discussed below! い adjectives: Bad・悪い・わるい Big・大きい・おおきい Bright/smart・明るい・あかるい Busy・忙しい・いそがしい Cheap・安い・やすい Close・近い・ちかい Cold (to touch)・冷たい・つめたい Cold (weather)・寒い・さむい Cool・涼しい・すずしい Cute・可愛い・かわいい Dangerous・危ない・あぶない Delicious・美味しい・おいしい Difficult・難しい・むずかしい Early・早い・はやい Expensive/tall・高い・たかい Far・遠い・とおい Fast・速い・はやい Fun・楽しい・たのしい Happy・嬉しい・うれしい Heavy・重い・おもい Hot (thing)・熱い・あつい Hot (weather)・暑い・あつい Interesting・面白い・おもしろい Kind・優しい・やさしい Light・軽い・かるい Long・長い・ながい Lukewarm・温い・ぬるい Many/numerous・多い・おおい Narrow・狭い・せまい New・新しい・あたらしい Noisy・煩い・うるさい Old (inanimate objects)・古い・ふるい Painful・痛い・いたい Sad/lonely・悲しい・かなしい Short・短い・みじかい Sleepy・眠い・ねむい Slow/late・遅い・おそい Small・小さい・ちいさい Spicy (taste)・辛い・からい Sweet・甘い・あまい Thin・細い・ほそい Unappetizing・不味い・まずい Want・欲しい・ほしい Warm・温かい・あたたかい Wide・広い・ひろい Young・若い・わかい な adjectives: All right・大丈夫な・だいじょうぶな Beautiful/clean・綺麗な・きれいな Convenient・便利な・べんりな Dislike・嫌いな・きらいな Famous・有名な・ゆうめいな Fine・立派な・りっぱな Free time・暇な・ひまな Healthy・元気な・げんきな Important・大切な・たいせつな Like・好きな・すきな Love・大好きな・だいすきな Polite・丁寧な・ていねいな Quiet・静かな・しずかな Serious・真面目な・まじめな Skill/good at・上手な・じょうずな Strong・丈夫な・じょうぶな The same・同じな・おなじな Unskilled/poor at・下手な・へたな Various・色々な・いろいろな * Very・大変な・たいへんな Very well・結構な・けっこうな Worry・心配な・しんぱいな * ＝々 is a sign of repetition. The kanji that proceeds it is repeated, however sometimes the pronunciation can change. In this example the pronunciation didn’t change 「色々・いろいろ」, but the pronunciation of the kanji for people/everybody changes「人々・ひとびと」. If you guys would like me to go into this repetition kanji further just let me know in my messages! Irregular: In Japanese there is one irregular adjective which is ‘いい・good’. Originally, the word for good was written in kanji 「良い」but overtime the reading for the kanji changed from いい to よい. This means that いい is almost always written in hiragana. At first glance, いい looks like any other い adjective and generally follows the same rules as one. It can be used in front of a noun and conjugate with です, however when it comes to negative form and past tense, いい changes drastically. The final い is dropped in the negative form and is replaced by 'くありません’, and the first い becomes よ. The final result of いい in the negative form is よくありません. いい conjugation: Present Positive・いいです・いい Present Negative・よくありません・よくない Past Positive・よかったです・よかった Past Negative・よくありませんでした・よくなかった 「かっこいい・cool」also follows the same rule as いい!

Common Japanese Verbs Hey guys, below is a list of what I believe to be common Japanese verbs! I’ll also be posting a list of common adjectives, adverbs, and nouns in the future too, so keep an eye out for them! There are a number of ways that verbs have been categorised in Japanese, such as Ichidan 「一段」 and Godan 「五段」, and う verbs and る verbs. I’ve listed them all in the titles for easier understanding, depending on what distinction you’re familiar with. These classifications come in handy when you need to conjugate verbs so try to remember what category they belong to! うverbs・五段「ごだん」・Class 1: To begin (something starts on its own)・始まる・はじまる To buy・買う・かう To close・閉まる・しまる To die・死ぬ・しぬ To drink・飲む・のむ To eat・食べる・たべる To end・終わる・おわる To enter・入る・はいる To give back (return something to someone)・返す・かえす To go・行く・いく To go back・戻る・もどる To have/exist (inanimate objects)・ある To know・知る・しる To learn・習う・ならう To listen・聞く・きく To make・作る・つくる To meet・会う・あう To play・遊ぶ・あそぶ To receive・貰う・もらう To repair・直す・なおす To return・帰る・かえる To ride on・乗る・のる To run・走る・はしる To send・送る・おくる To sit・座る・すわる To speak・話す・はなす To swim・泳ぐ・およぐ To take・取る・とる To take off (shoes, clothes)・脱ぐ・ぬぐ To understand・分かる・わかる To use・使う・つかう To wait・待つ・まつ To wake up・起こす・おこす To wash・洗う・あらう To write・書く・かく るverbs・一段「いちだん」・Class 2: To answer・答える・こたえる To bathe・浴びる・あびる To be able・出来る・できる To be born・生まれる・うまれる To be enough・足りる・たりる To begin (to start something)・始める・はじめる To borrow・借りる・かりる To break・壊れる・こわれる To check・調べる・しらべる To cut・切れる・きれる To exceed・過ぎる・すぎる To find・見つける・みつける To forget・忘れる・わすれる To get off・降りる・おりる To get tired・疲れる・つかれる To give・あげる To go out・出る・でる To greet・迎える・むかえる To have/exist (animate objects)・いる To help・助ける・たすける To make a mistake・間違える・まちがえる To open・開ける・あける To remember・覚える・おぼえる To see・見える・みえる To show・見せる・みせる To sleep・寝る・ねる To stop・止める・やめる To teach・教える・おしえる To think・考える・かんがえる To wear・着る・きる Irregular verbs・Class 3: To come・来る・くる To do・する
