This section of the Japanese course should be considered separate
from the rest of the course. It is included here to provide you
with an overview of the Japanese grammar, but as a reference tool
rather than a learning tool. If you are a beginner, I suggest you
skip this part for now, and continue with Lesson
1.
On occasion you will find examples in red.
These examples are grammatically incorrect, but are given as illustration
of how certain constructions work.
The grammar section is divided into 2 major categories:
Conjugations
(J → E)
In this category you will be able to find all the different
conjugations in Japanese. The introduction page will give
you an overview of the five basic conjugations. This category
is further divided by the five basic conjugations where you
will find how each conjugation is used. The final division
comes from the different forms in which you may encounter
the basic conjugation. |

Constructions
(E → J / J → E)
In this category you will find Japanese sentence constructions
and instructions on how to achieve certain grammatical forms
in Japanese. Each section has been given a name which describes
a collection of constructions related to one another. For
instance: You will be able to find the past tense under "Tenses"
and questions under "Interrogative forms". |

At the bottom of each page you will find a list of related pages.
These links will bring you to pages with similar or alternate constructions,
or to pages of other related interest. |
