Lesson 4
Base 2 + masen
Now that you are a little familiar with Base 2, let's try masen, which is the negative form of masu. Look at these yodan examples:
- Watashi wa kasa o kaimasen. (I'm not going to buy an umbrella.)
- Kare wa machimasen. (He won't wait.)
- Kimiko wa Osaka ni ikimasen. (Kimiko isn't going to Osaka.)
And here are some ichidan:
- Watashi wa ima tabemasen. (I'm not going to eat now.)
- Kanojo wa kasa o karimasen. (She isn't going to borrow an umbrella.)
Easy enough, right?
