Japanese ます to Dictionary Form and て Form Flashcards
Turn polite ます forms into dictionary and て forms for 27 Japanese verbs. Get kana readings, English meanings, verb groups, and a rule check on every card.
Despre acest pachet
起きます and 置きます both sound like おきます. One means “to get up” and gives 起きる and 起きて. The other means “to put” and gives 置く and 置いて. The verb group tells you which pattern to use.
Practice 27 Japanese verbs on 54 cards. Each prompt gives the polite ます (masu) form, the kana reading, the English meaning, and the verb group. Say or write the dictionary form on one card and the て (te) form on a separate card. The answer gives the kana and a short explanation so you can check the ending.
Start with regular Group 1 (godan) and Group 2 (ichidan) verbs, then mix in look-alikes, irregular する and 来る, and the Group 1 exception 行く → 行って. Both drills start from ます so you can get more practice using polite forms you already know. Reverse conversions and sentence building are beyond this drill.
Nibomo created these exercises independently. Grammar references include the Japan Foundation’s Irodori grammar notes (Elementary 1, lesson 1) and dictionary-form guide.
