kono inu wa tiny desu.
as for this dog, his name is tiny. is that right senseis?



Correct 3nodding


yay! heart


There's a more correct way to say "This dog's name is Tiny."

> "Kono inu no namae wa Tiny desu."

"inu no namae" means "the dog's name" (namae = name)

wink Hope this was helpful!


oh that's great! thanks! 3nodding

It's not so much more correct as it is bigger. If someone already asked what the dog's name was, you could easily leave the "no namae" out, just like if I asked "Enpitsu wa doko desu ka?", someone could respond "Asoko desu." and maybe point in the right direction.


is that.. ""where is my pencil"?

このコンピューターはわたしです。

This computer is mine.

Computer needs to be in katakana because it is a foreign loanword and you have to add の behind わたし to indicate possession.

Hello!

I would like to try, if I may:

Watashi no okaasan no kaban no naka ni kuruma desu.

Is it allowed to use so many no-s? xp

I was trying to say:

My mother's bag is inside the car. LOL

OR:

Are wa ani no kesa desu.

My brother's umbrella is over there. -> Question: is it allowed to use wa after a demonstrative like are? OR do we use ga instead?


Thanks!
