Grammar / Notes

  • 〜がすきです / きらいです Noun + means ‘like’ and noun + ‘dislike’. The thing liked takes , because and are na-adjectives, not verbs. (“Mariasan said, ‘I like fish dishes,’ and looked at the menu.”)
  • Sentence-final ね at the end of a sentence seeks agreement or shares a feeling with the listener, like ‘isn’t it?’ or ‘right?’. (“I said, ‘It’s a shame, isn’t it. Let’s leave here.’”)

English

The All-Meat Dining Hall

On Saturday night, I entered a new dining hall with Mariasan.
Mariasan said, “I like fish dishes,” and looked at the menu.
But, that dining hall’s dishes were all meat.
Mariasan said, “I hate meat. What shall we do?”
I said, “It’s a shame, isn’t it. Let’s leave here.”
We left the dining hall and went to eat sushi.
