Lesson 3
Ichidan Verbs with Base 2 + masu


Ichidan verbs are a snap, because you change them to Base 2 by just dropping the ru at the end. Look carefully at these ichidan verbs and how they conjugate, and notice how they differ from the yodan group covered in Lesson 2:

Lesson 2
Yodan Verbs with Base 2 + masu

The first ending you'll want to master is the polite form masu. Since masu requires the Base 2 form, yodan verbs are changed so they end in i -- their "Base 2" form -- before the masu ending is added. Notice how the following yodan verbs change in order to add masu, the present polite ending. Especially notice how verbs ending in su and tsu change:

kau (buy)
kai
kaimasu
aruku (walk)
aruki
arukimasu
isogu (hurry)

Lesson 1
The Plain Form

Please remember that all Japanese verbs end in u, but to be more precise, it's the last syllable of the plain form that ends in u. Let's take the verb aruku, which means "to walk," for example: it ends in ku, not u. Remembering this will make further study much easier.

There are 3 types of verbs in Japanese: yodan, ichidan, and irregular. First we will look at only some simple yodan verbs, which can end in u, ku, gu, su, tsu, nu, bu, mu, or ru:
  • kau (buy)
  • aruku (walk)
  • isogu (hurry)
  • kasu (lend)
  • matsu (wait)
  • shinu (die)
  • asobu (play)
  • yomu (read)
  • kaeru (return)
