みなさんこんにちは、かなこです！今日のシャドーイングは「動詞(どうし)のShort form」です。
Hi everyone, it’s Kanako. Today’s shadowing is “Short form of verbs”. The short form is used in casual situations such as talking with friends or family members. Therefore, it’s better to avoid when speaking with people who met for the first time.
The short form of verbs of the present tense affirmative is the same as the dictionary form. For the U-Verb short form of the present tense negative, use “あ” vowel and add “ない”. For instance, “のむ” would be “のまない”. The exception is the verb ends with “う”. For this verb, use “わ” instead of “あ” and add “ない”, so “あう” would be “あわない”.
それでは はじめていきましょう！ Let’s get started！
