Japanese Language
「Sentence Structure」


The stem of the nai form of a verb (the form without nai), followed by the phrase nakereba naranai ("must," "have to"), expresses the speaker's belief that an action is necessary, often due to an obligation or a duty. Similarly with adjectives, the ku form of an i-adjective or the te form of a na-adjective is followed by this same phrase, expressing the speaker's belief that a state or condition is necessary, though not necessarily due to an obligation or duty (ex., 3).

Examples:
帰りにスーパーに寄らなければなりません。
Kaeri ni sūpā ni yoranakereba narimasen.
I must stop by a supermarket on the way home.

果物は新しくなければならない。
Kudamono wa atarashiku nakereba naranai.
Fruit must be fresh.

ホテルは静かでなければならない。
Hoteru wa shizuka de nakereba naranai.
The hotel must be quiet.

Hope this helps!

Japanese Language
「Sentence Structure」

The te form of a verb, followed by wa ikenai or  wa ikemasen, is used to tell someone that they should not, or is not allowed to do something.
NOTE: The verb komaru ("be troubled") or the na-adjective dame da ("no good," "useless") may be used in place of ikenai (examples 2, 3).

Examples:

Mizu ga kitanai kara kawa de oyoide wa ikemasen.
The water is dirty, so you must not swim in the river.

Japanese Language
「Verbs」

「Vte + aru~てある」
"be -ed"

Like the second iteration of Vte iru, Vte aru expresses a state of being resulting from a previous action. With this verb form, only transitive verbs are used and the subject of the sentence is always inanimate. In the Vte aru form, there is an implication that someone did the action, therefore the resulting state exists. On the other hand, in the Vte iru form, there is a lack of implication but a mere description of fact.

Examples:
このタオルは使ってあります。
Kono taoru wa tsukatte arimasu.
This towel has been used.

教室のドアが閉めてある。
Kyōshitsu no doa ga shimete aru.
The door of the classroom is closed.

このテレビは修理してあります。
Kono terebi wa shūri shite arimasu.
This TV set has been repaired.

Hope this helps!
