Japanese Language 「Adj stem + Sō da そうだ 」 ”Look,” ”Look like" The auxiliary na-adjective sō da attaches to the stem of an adjective. Used to express the speaker's conjecture concerning the present state of someone or something based on their available visual information. The adjective ii (good) and the negative nai (not) change to yosa and nasa before sō da (Ex., 2). Examples: 今日は良子さんはとても嬉しそうだ。 Kyō wa Yoshiko-san wa totemo ureshi sō da. Yoshiko looks very happy today. こちらはよさそうだが、そちらは新しくなさそうだ。 Kochira wa yosa sō da ga, sochira wa atarashikunasa sō da. This one looks good, but that one doesn't look fresh. あの屋上のレストランは高級そだね。 Ano okujō no resutoran wa kōkyū sō da ne. The restaurant on the roof (of that building)looks high class, doesn't it? Hope this helps, and see you again! じゃまたね! °˖ ✧◝(○ ヮ ○)◜✧˖ ° こゆうきあいはら °˖ ✧◝(○ ヮ ○)◜✧˖ °
