    The particle "ni" is used to indicate the place where a thing(s) or a person(s) is(or are) present and to mark one's goal or destination. "De" is used to indicate the place where an action occurs. In short, "ni" casts the sight upon a place, while "de" upon an action. In your example of replacing "de" with "ni", it wouldn't really make sense. But you were close!

    tomodachi is the right word for friend.
    nakama means "fellow member" or "crew member".

    I was having so much trouble understanding verbs until I saw this series. Sometimes I have to find just the right video to figure something out. lol

    VERY good classes indeed, incredibly well prepared. I'm learning so fast, at least about the structure of the language, I think the method you use deserves to be imitated.

    eg. "kare to tenisu wo shi masu" means "Play tenis with him." So you can use it.
