Learn Japanese with JapanesePod101.com! In the last lesson, you mastered the basics of speaking in the passive voice. This skill is critical to speaking natural-sounding Japanese, so this lesson delves a bit deeper. Often, Japanese sentences are formed so that the person receiving an action is the subject of the sentence. One example is, “I was sent an email from Kanoko.” You’ll find that many Japanese sentences sound more natural in the passive voice. So, to speak Japanese well, you must be a master of the passive voice.
In this lower intermediate Japanese lesson, learn even more about speaking Japanese in the passive voice. Discover how watashi (receiver of action) becomes the subject in Japanese passive sentences. And, learn when to use the passive voice along with vocabulary words to make your passive Japanese sound like second nature. This is one awesome JapanesePod101.com lesson!
