The \u3066<\/strong> form will be useful to learn because it’s used for various grammatical purposes. First, let’s learn how to form the \u3066<\/strong> form. In the next post, we’ll learn the various uses for this form.<\/p>\n

With RU verbs, the \u3066<\/strong> form is constructed by taking off the \u308b<\/strong> and adding \u3066<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

\u304a\u304d\u308b<\/strong> (to get up) becomes \u304a\u304d\u3066<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u306d\u308b<\/strong>\u00a0(to sleep) becomes \u306d\u3066<\/strong><\/p>\n

With U verbs, it’s a little complex.<\/p>\n

For U verbs that end in \u304f<\/strong> drop the \u304f<\/strong> and add \u3044\u3066<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

\u304d\u304f<\/strong>\u00a0(to listen, to hear) becomes \u304d\u3044\u3066<\/strong><\/p>\n

There is an exception to this rule:<\/p>\n

\u3044\u304f<\/strong> (to go) becomes \u3044\u3063\u3066<\/strong><\/p>\n

For U verbs that end in \u3046<\/strong>, \u3064<\/strong>, \u308b<\/strong>, drop the last syllable and add \u3063\u3066<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u3066\u3064\u3060\u3046 <\/strong>(to help) becomes \u3066\u3064\u3060\u3063\u3066<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u3082\u3064<\/strong> (to hold, carry) becomes \u3082\u3063\u3066<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u306f\u3044\u308b<\/strong> (to enter) becomes \u306f\u3044\u3063\u3066<\/strong><\/p>\n

To form the \u3066<\/strong> form of U verbs that end in \u3080<\/strong>, \u3076<\/strong>, and \u306c<\/strong>, drop the last syllable and add \u3093\u3067<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u3084\u3059\u3080<\/strong> (to rest) becomes \u3084\u3059\u3093\u3067<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u306f\u3053\u3076 <\/strong>(to carry) becomes \u306f\u3053\u3093\u3067<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u3057\u306c<\/strong> (to die) becomes \u3057\u3093\u3067<\/strong><\/p>\n

To form the \u3066<\/strong> form of \u3050<\/strong> verbs, drop the \u3050<\/strong> and add \u3044\u3067<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u3044\u305d\u3050<\/strong> (to hurry) becomes \u3044\u305d\u3044\u3067<\/strong><\/p>\n

With U verbs that end in \u3059<\/strong>, drop the \u3059<\/strong> and add \u3057\u3066<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u3051\u3059<\/strong> (to erase) becomes \u3051\u3057\u3066<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u3059\u308b<\/strong> (to do) is irregular and will be \u3057\u3066<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u304f\u308b<\/strong> (to come) is also irregular and will become \u304d\u3066<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n
