Japanese Language
[Sentence Structure]

[Expressing Ability, Preference, Desire, Intention, Resolution, and Experience]
[Part 6]

The na-adjectives sukina ("favorite," "preferred") and kiaina ("disliked") are often used as predicates when expressing one's preference for or dislike of someone or something. To express love or hate, the prefix dai- is added to these words: dai-suki ("love"), dai-kirai da ("hate").
NOTE: The particle ga changes to wa when two items are contrasted (ex., 4).

Examples:
クックーさんは 日本 の 食べ物 が 好き です。
Kukku-san wa Nihon no tabemono ga suki desu.
Mr. Cook likes Japanese food.

孝は 犬 と 遊ぶ の が 大好き だ。
Takashi wa inu to asobu no ga daisuki da.
Takashi loves to play with his dog.

弟は 芝生 を 刈る の が 大嫌い です。
Otōto wa shibafu o karu no ga daikirai desu.

[Part 16]

[Vte + morau~て もらう]
"have someone do something"

Vte morau is used to indicate when a person receives a favorable action from someone whose status is about equal to or lower than that of the receiver. Vte itadaku is used when favorable action comes from someone whose status is higher than that of the receiver (ex., 2). The verbs morau もらう and itadaku いただく (receive) are used as auxilaries. The indirect object (the doer of the favorable action being marked by the particle ni) cannot be in first person.

Examples:
戸田さん は 時々小川さん に 車 を 洗って もらう。
Toda-san wa tokidoki Ogawa-san ni kuruma o aratte morau.
Miss Toda sometimes has Mr. Ogawa wash the car for her.

私達は高木-先生 に 漢字 を 教えて いただきます。
Watashi-tachi wa Takagi-sensei ni kanji o oshiete itadakimasu.

[Sentence Structure]

The Adjective jōzuna ("skillful") and hayai ("quick") as well as their antonyms hetana ("lousy") and osoi ("slow") describe a person's ability to do something. The particle no following the dictionary form of a verb, turns the verb into a gerund.

Examples:

Kono ko wa kami de hikōki o tsukuru no ga jōzu da.
This child is good at making paper airplanes.

姉 は 料理 が 下手 でした。

Japanese Language
[Sentence Structure]

The verbs mieru ("can be seen") and kikoeru ("can be heard") indicate something is passively or spontaneously visible or audible. These verbs are different from mirareru ("can see") and kikeru ("can hear")-the potential forms of the verbs miru and kiku-in that the latter indicates that one can see and hear anything by virtue of the quality of one's eyesight or hearing, not by the nature of what happens to be in one's field of vision or earshot.

Examples:
夜空 の 星 が 見える。
Yozora no hoshi ga mieru.
One can see stars in the (night) sky.
(IMPLYING: Stars are visible)

今日は 曇って いる ので ふじーさん が 見ません。
Kyō wa kumotte irunode Fuji ̄-san ga mimasen.
It's cloudy today, so we can't see Mt. Fuji.

森の中で鳥の鳴き声が聞こえた.
Mori no naka de tori no nakigoe ga kikoeta.
The cries of birds could be heard in the woods.

ここ は とても 静か で 何 も 聞こえない。
Koko wa totemo shizuka de nani mo kikoenai.
This place is so quiet I can't hear anything.

Hope this helps!
