  • Do you know how to use the Japanese word BA (ば)? You can use ば to say "IF" in Japanese! Today I will teach you how to use ば as quickly as possible, using Japanese example sentences, and simple explanations. By the end of this lesson, you should be able to comfortably use the BA Japanese grammar point yourself!
    In the series 3 Minute Thursday, I teach short grammar points from the book A Dictionary of Basic Japanese Grammar (link below). Today we cover the grammar point ば.

    I like this as this was detailed and to the point. Sometimes I just want to understand/refresh a concept and other videos are just too in depth or have a lot of fluff. Those videos have their place, but a video like this (while not a short), presents the content in a manner were it is still compact (i.e it is not spread out over 30 minutes of examples and anecdotes about the presenter).

      That's a great idea! It will take quite a bit of research and planning, so it might take awhile, but I already have some ideas on how to make it fun.

    Hi, can you explain the difference between kureba and kurereba? It feels the same but I believe the nuance is different.

    Im studying n4 grammar now! Im a little confused with ば conjugation nouns and な adjectives for ば is just なら rather than ならば is that ok or do they mean the same?

  • @MRez-kl5fe
    @MRez-kl5fe Год назад

    very good explanation, but I still can't tell difference between using this "ba" expression and "tara" expression

    • @ahabrawgaming1289
      @ahabrawgaming1289 Год назад

      I think たら is used for な and い adjectives.
      It can also be used for (when/after/if)
      while ば stands for (if...then) conditionally
      Not the a professional but hope that helps

    What is the difference between nara, ba, to and Tara. Why are there so many ways to say if.
    I somehow understand 'To' now but the rest confuse me.

    • @ToKiniAndy
      @ToKiniAndy  3 года назад +4

      There are at least 4 different ways to say "if" depending on the situation. なら is the most situational, たら is the safe bet, and ば is generally followed by a positive outcome.
