Japanese Language 「Particles」 「Koso・こそ」 1.Adds emphasis to the word preceding it. Examples: 来年こそ、ヨーロッパへ旅行したいと思っています。 Rainen koso, yōroppa e ryokō shitai to omotte imasu. Next year for certain, I am thinking of making a trip to Europe. 「Next year for sure, I hope to make a trip to Europe.」 今度こそ、頑張りましょう。 Kondo koso, ganbarimashō. Let's give it our best this time. 2.In the idiomatic expression kochira koso: "not at all, the pleasure is all mine." Example: どうも有難うございました。 こちらこそ。 Dōmo arigatō gozaimashita Kochira koso. Thank you very much. The pleasure is all mine. 「Lit., It is precisely me [who should be thanking you].」 Hope this helps! じゃまたね! °˖ ✧◝(○ ヮ ○)◜✧˖ °こゆうきあいはら°˖ ✧◝(○ ヮ ○)◜✧˖ °
