You can consider the te-form in this context as “and” or “then.” 日曜日は友達に会って、映画を見て、レストランでビールを飲みました。 nichiyōbi wa tomodachi ni atte, eiga o mite, resutoran de bi-ru o nomimashita. On Sunday I met my friends, watched a movie and drank beer at a restaurant. 明日は日本語の勉強をして、学校でバレーボールをします。 ashita wa nihongo no benkyō o shite, gakkō de bare-bo-ru o shimasu. Tomorrow I will study Japanese and play volleyball at school. You can also conjugate i-adjectives and nouns into the te-form and combine them. Regarding the conjugation, you just add で after nouns and na-adjectives. Combinations between adjectives or nouns and verbs are applicable as the third example shows. 彼女は頭がよくて、可愛いです。 kanojo wa atama ga yokute, kawaii desu. She is smart and cute. 彼はハンサムで親切です。 kare wa hansamu de shinsetsu desu. He is handsome and kind. =============================================== Check out my Youtube Channel!
