Japanese language
「Sentence Structure」


「A」
このパイはおいしくない/おいしくありません。
Kono pai wa oishjku nai/oishiku arimasen.
The pie is not delicious.

「B」
その書類は必要ではない/必要ではありません。
Sono shorui wa hitsuyō de wa nai/hitsuyō de wa arimasen.
Those papers are not necessary.

In Japanese, when using the negative form of an i-adjective, the stem form (form of the word without the i ) is followed by ku nai. The negative form of na-adjectives follow the same pattern, with the usage of the stem form, followed by de wa nai, or ja nai. The negative form in Japanese is used both attributively (before a noun, to modify it) or predicatively (as a predicate). When used predicatively, desu may be added to attribute politeness to the sentence, and arimasen can replace nai for the same effect.

Examples:
ビル(さん)の成績はよくない(です)。
Biru(-san) no seiseki wa yoku nai (desu).
Bill's grades are not good.

地下鉄の駅は遠くありません。
Chikatetsu no eki wa tōku arimasen.
The subway station isn't far.

あの人たちは幸せではない。
Ano hito-tachi wa shiawase de wa nai.
They are not happy.

手都きは簡単ではありません。
Tetsuzuki wa kantan de wa arimasen.
The procedures are not that simple.

That concludes this edition of Japanese language structure, hope it helps, and see you again soon!
