Grammar Practice

Let’s practice Japanese grammar by composing a Japanese sentence after reading an English script!

The goal is to understand the overall sentence patterns for the target grammar by making a sentence over and over. Do Not try too hard to think about the grammatical rules that you learned from a textbook. 

With that in mind, Let’s enjoy learning!

Practice

Try to create a Japanese sentence shortly after reading an English script. If you cannot come up with any words, just look at an answer and try it again later.
