Q & A

What is the main focus of this video?

The main focus of the video is to teach how to inform about past activities, specifically by converting verbs to their past form in Japanese. It also introduces time-related vocabulary to help build sentences in the past tense.

Why is it important to change the verb form when talking about past events?

It is important to change the verb form to indicate that the action or event has already happened. The verb must match the time reference to clearly convey the past tense.

What are some examples of time-related vocabulary introduced in the video?

The video introduces several time-related terms such as 'ototoy' (two days ago), 'kino' (yesterday), 'sinono' (yesterday morning), 'kristal' (this morning), 'tenget' (last month), 'yup' (last night), and 'thank you' (last week).

How do you form questions in the past tense using these time-related words?

To form questions in the past tense, you use time-related words and convert the main verb into its past form. For example, 'Kino, bimasta?' (Did you watch TV yesterday?) and 'Keisha, yomimashita ka?' (Did you read the newspaper this morning?)

What are the two possible answers to a question in the past tense?

The two possible answers are either 'hai' (yes) or 'iye' (no), followed by the verb in its past tense form. For example, 'Hai, yomimashita' (Yes, I read it) or 'Iye, yomimasen' (No, I did not read it).

What is the difference between the affirmative and negative forms in the past tense?

The affirmative form uses the past tense of the verb, such as 'yomimashita' (read). The negative form uses 'imasen' or 'massen' after the verb, like 'yomimasen' (did not read).

How is the past tense form of verbs created in Japanese?

In Japanese, to form the past tense, verbs in their polite form (ending in 'masu') change to the past tense by replacing 'masu' with 'mashita'. For example, 'yomimasu' (to read) becomes 'yomimashita' (read).

Can you give an example of a question using a time-related word and its answer?

Sure! 'Kino, eiga o mimashita ka?' (Did you watch a movie yesterday?) The possible answers are 'Hai, mimashita' (Yes, I watched it) or 'Iye, mimasen' (No, I did not watch it).

What are some practice examples provided in the video for using the past tense?

The video provides several practice examples, such as 'Kino no Asa, eiga o mimashita ka?' (Did you watch a movie yesterday morning?) and 'Sengetsu, tomodachi ni aimashita ka?' (Did you meet a friend last month?).

How does the video help learners understand the difference between affirmative and negative answers?

The video clearly shows how to answer in both affirmative and negative forms by demonstrating sample questions and responses. For instance, for a positive response, 'Hai, yomimashita' (Yes, I read), and for a negative response, 'Iye, yomimasen' (No, I didn’t read).
