JLPT3: もいい
| 日本語： | [verb (base 6)] もいい |
| English: | It is alright to... |
Another quick one tonight and this time we'll look at a conjugation that allows us to say that some action is permissable. All you have to do is stick もいい on the end of a verb in base 6. Usually, you'll find です in there to make it nice and polite. Something else worth noting is that you can turn this into a question simply by adding か to the end.
例文
| English: | It is alright to finish drinking your coffee before we depart. |
| Jenglish: | [depart][before][coffee][drinking + finish + alright] |
| 日本語： | 出発する前にコーヒーを飲み終わってもいいです。 |
| English: | Is it alright to phone my sister? |
| Jenglish: | [sister][phone + alright][?] |
| 日本語： | 姉を電話してもいいですか。 |
またね。。。
