=========================================================
A relative clause is a clause that is used to modify a noun or a noun phrase. In English, a clause must contain a subject and a predicate at a minimum in order to be grammatical, but a Japanese clause only requires a predicate.
Forming the relative clause - step by step:
1
In your mind, change the verb in 私は本をかいました to the plain form, かった
The verbs in relative clauses is always in the plain form. They can be in the past or present tenses or in the volitional (-tai) form, but they will always be in the plain form.
2
Next, we have to change the word order so that 本 (book), the main thing we're talking about, comes at the end of the clause . . .
私は本をかった (I bought a book) changes to 私がかった本 (the book that I bought)
Note that the topic marker は changes to が in the relative clause. This is because 私 is no longer the topic of the sentence. In fact, our new main topic is the book.
3
We can use the phrase we have just constructed in a sentence, by adding our second idea, which is おもしろいです:
私がかった本は、おもしろいです。
The book that I bought is interesting.
There is no Japanese equivalent to English relative pronouns (i.e. “Who“, “Which“, and “That“). In other words, Japanese relative clauses directly connect to the noun or noun phrase and any particles or pronouns associated with the noun / noun phrase are erased.
大きい犬 [The big dog] This is simply an い-Adjective, but it functions grammatically identically to a more complex relative clause.
寝ている犬 [A sleeping dog] Notice that (1) the relative clause can consist of a lone verb, and (2) the relative clause directly precedes the noun that it modifies.
目が大きい人 [A preson with big eyes] This relative clause is slightly more complex with both a subject and a predicate.
頭がいい学生[a smart student] Note that the relative clause connects directly to the noun that it modifies.
髪が長い人 [The person who has long hair]
めがねをかけている人 [The person who is wearing glasses]
猫が好きな人 [The person who likes cats]
あそこで写真をとっている人 [The person who is taking a photo over there]
毎日運動をする人 [The person who exercises every day]
タバコが吸わない人 [The person who doesn’t smoke tobacco]
去年結婚した人 [The person who got married last year]

Masa Sensei Masa Sensei 「自動詞・他動詞」の使い方を良く分かりません:(教えてくださいませんか? 「彼女は学校を休む」の休むは自動詞ですから、どうして「を」使わなければいけません? 自動詞と「を」使ってはいけないと思います。
@MasaSensei
6 жыл бұрын
いい質問ですね！「〜を」は必ず他動詞ではありません。 たとえば、⑴どこかを移動する時(when you pass through somewhere), 自動詞に「〜を」を使います。「〜を通ります」「〜を散歩します」など。⑵何かを離れる時(when you move away from something or somewhere) にも「〜を」を使います。たとえば、「バスを降ります」「学校を卒業します」。この、「学校を休みます」の時も、学校から離れるイメージです(the image is that you are going away from the school)。⑴と⑵は全て自動詞ですが、「〜を」を使います！ もう少し内容が難しくなったら、自動詞と他動詞についてのビデオ作りますね！いつもありがとうございます😊

This is really helpful! Thank you so much! I have a question, Masa-sensei, why do we use "が" as a particle instead of ”は” for relative clauses?
@professornope
2 жыл бұрын
Not sure if you've figured it out in the time since you've left this comment, but I'll answer in case someone else has the same question. が and は are almost the same, you use it for denoting the subject. The difference then is on the emphasis of where the focus is on the subject. は is for focus on what comes after the subject, while が is for right before. So in the book part of the lesson, she writes "I *read a book* yesterday" as "私は昨日本を読みした". The focus/emphasis is on read a book yesterday, probably just on the book. For the が example, it places emphasis on I the speaker. 私がを読んだ本 is "The book *I* read yesterday". Hope this helps!
Masa sensei I have got a question. Could you explain me the ho を particle again? ありがとうどうさいます
@MasaSensei
2 жыл бұрын
The particle を (o) is used to mark your sentence’s object. In any case or time, whether it is physical or metaphysical, it is directly acted upon in a sentence which again can be marked with を (o). To put it simply, the particle を (o) follows nouns and noun phrases. Compared to English, the sentence’s object comes immediately after the verb.

It doesn't really translate to what you wanted to say but it means Mr. Tanaka san went with me yesterday. And i believe we don't speak english that way either like the person with whom i went yesterday was tanaka san . so it's better to say mr. tanaka san went with me yesterday.
