When talking about jobs in Japan, people tend to be very general in their description about their job. かいしゃいん and サラリーマンare often used to describe any type of white collar career job. Many companies also employ women who are referred to as OL or ‘office lady’. Usually these women do a variety of support tasks. Although gender equality in the workplace is improving in Japan, the business world is still very much dominated by men.

Talking about jobs

Practice the dialogue below with a partner. Repeat it until you can say it smoothly.

A: おさんのはですか。 ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿

B:です。 ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿

A: そうですか。おさんは？ ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿

B:は、です。 ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿

　でも、はでした。 ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿

Grammar point 1: 〜たいです I want to…..

The suffix ーーたい is added to the stem (the part that comes before ーーます)of verbs to make the pattern I want to (do)_______. It can be used in question form to ask a person about what they want to do.

To make the negative form, change the いto くない

EXAMPLES へりたいです。 I want to go home.

へりたくないです。 I don’t want to go home.

The basic pattern for sentences is

Person は Object が／をVerb stem + たいです。　　　Want to do.

or

Person は Object が／をVerb stem + たくないです。　　　Don’t want to do.

The particles へ and に can be used when talking about wanting to go to a place.

Practice asking and answering the above questions with your classmates. Try to make your own questions as well.

2好き（な）／きらい（な）

As you have learned before the basic pattern for stating you like something is

AはBがすきです。　　 A likes B

AはBがすきじゃないです。 A does not like B

To talk about something you dislike use きらい

AはBがきらいです。 　A dislikes B.

There are a few important points to remember.

1. とてもis not used with 好きand きらい. Instead use 大好きto talk about something you love and 大嫌いto talk about something you despise. とても can be used with all other い and な adjectives.

2. When you neither like nor dislike something use the phrase 好きでもきらいでもないです。

3. Sometimes 好きor 大好き can be taken as a sign of romantic interest, particularly if the phrase のことが replaces が

たけしさんはメアリーさんのことが大好きです。

Adjectives

Japanese has two groups of adjectives. The first group is often called い-adjectives. They are a group of words that describe nouns. In their basic form, い-adjectives always end in, of course, い. Like verbs they have four main endings.

is isn’t was wasn’t

ーーい ーーくない ーーかった ーーくなかった

　　（ーーくありません） （ーーくありませんでした）

We can, and usually will, add です to the endings on the top line to make the expression more polite.

The other group of adjectives is called な- adjectives. The な is only used when these words come directly before the word (noun) they describe. Their four main endings are the same as nouns. Unlike the い-adjectives above, the ですused with な　adjectives is necessary to make the sentence complete.

is isn’t was wasn’t

です じゃないです でした じゃなかったです

じゃありません じゃありませんでした

|い-adjectives | | |

|18 | |あたらしい |新しい |new |

|19 | |あつい |暑い／熱い |hot weather/objects |

|20 | |いそがしい |忙しい |busy |

|21 | |おおきい |大きい |big, large |

|22 | |おもしろい |面白い |interesting |

|23 | |こわい |怖い |frightening |

|24 | |さむい |寒い |cold (weather) |

|25 | |たのしい |楽しい |fun |

|# |quiz | | | |

|26 | |ちいさい |小さい |small |

|27 | |つまらない | |boring |

|28 | |ふるい |古い |old (things) |

|29 | |むずかしい |難しい |difficult |
