Example sentence:

・雪 が 降る と 子ども たち は 喜ぶ
/yuki ga fu-ru to ko-domo tachi wa yoroko-bu/
...When it snows, children are delighted

Japan has a little snow every year, but doesn't so

deeply in the southern side.

Japan has a long mountain range on the center of

its land, so the southern area of it doesn't have

snow very much.

So children there must be happy to see snow.

I used to be one of them.

In the other hand, the northern side of the mountain

range has a lot of snow every year.

I wonder if children there like snow too or not.

So I explain about the grammars used in the sentence.

🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵

👉雪/yuki/

This means snow.

👉降る/fu-ru/

This means that something falls from the sky.

So 雪が降る/yuki ga fu-ru/ means "snow falls from

the sky" and it means "it snows"

👉雪が降ると/yoki ga fu-ru to/

と is put at the end of a verb and it means like

"when~" or "if~".

So 雪が降ると means like "when it snows" or ''if it

snows"

👉子ども たち/ko-domo tachi/

子ども means a child or children.

たち makes a noun to be plural form.

So 子どもたち means "children"

I said 子ども can also mean children and there's no

difference between 子ども and 子どもたち to mean

children.

👉喜ぶ/yoroko-bu/

This means to be happy or to be delighted.

So 子どもたちは喜ぶ means "children are

delighted.

🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵

So that's all explanations.

Now you can translate the sentence!

雪が降ると子どもたちは喜ぶ, this means likr this:

"When it snows, children are delighted"

That's all today.

Thank you so much for reading!

Ask me if you have any questions.

I hope this helps you.

See you next time!
