Grammar / Notes

  • 〜がじょうずです / へたです Noun + says someone is good at something, and noun + that they are bad at it. The skill takes . (“I am bad at drawing.”)
  • 〜と思おもいます (I think) expresses an opinion or belief. The clause before takes the plain form. In the affirmative non-past, nouns and na-adjectives normally take before . (“I thought that a picture of a dog would be difficult.”)
