Lesson 23-2 | 日本へ行ったとき、USJへ行きたいです。

from のぞみのにほんご | Japanese for Beginners · host Nozomi

🌸 Beginner Japanese Lesson 23-2 | 日本へ行ったとき、USJへ行きたいです。🌸 「日本へ行くとき、USJへ行きたいです。」 「日本へ行ったとき、USJへ行きたいです。」 Which one should you use? In this lesson, you'll learn the difference between: ✨ V(dictionary form)+ とき ✨ V(た-form)+ とき The important point is not simply whether something is in the past. 👉 V(dictionary form)+ とき The action is not finished yet. 👉 V(た-form)+ とき The action is already finished. For example: 🍚 ご飯を食べるとき、「いただきます」と言います。 ➡️ We say “itadakimasu” before eating. 🍚 ご飯が終わったとき、「ごちそうさまでした」と言います。 ➡️ We say “gochisousama deshita” after finishing the meal. 🏠 家に帰ったとき、「ただいま」と言います。 ➡️ When I get home, I say “tadaima.” ✈️ 日本へ行ったとき、USJへ行きたいです。 ➡️ When I go to Japan, I want to go to USJ. 💡 POINT The た-form does not always mean past tense. With 「~とき」, think about the order of the actions: Is the action already finished? Or is it not finished yet? Listen to the conversations and practice these useful expressions with Nozomi! 🎧🌸 #LearnJapanese #JapaneseGrammar #JapanesePodcast #JapaneseForBeginners #JLPTN5 #日本語 #日本語勉強 #のぞみのにほんご
