Verb Basics (Present / Past)

Hana โ€” Japanese Tutor

๐ŸŒธ

ใ€œใพใ™ (masu) โ€” polite present/future

ใ€œใพใ™ (masu) is the polite verb ending you'll use in 90% of real conversations. It covers both present and future โ€” Japanese doesn't separate 'I eat' and 'I will eat.' Just attach ใพใ™ to a verb stem and you're speaking politely!
