Answers and Explanations

  1. なに
    Explanation:

    「何か」 (nanika) means 'something' or 'anything'. It is formed by adding 「か」 (ka) to the question word 「何」 (nani - what). Usage: 何か [Noun/Verb].

  2. かた
    Explanation:

    「〜かた」 (kata) is a suffix attached to a verb stem (masu-stem) to mean 'way of doing ~' or 'how to do ~'. 「読みかた (yomikata)」 means 'way of reading' or 'how to read'. Usage: [Verb stem] + かた.

  3. あの
    Explanation:

    「あの」 (ano) means 'that (+Noun over there)'. It is used before a noun to refer to something distant from both the speaker and the listener. Usage: あの [Noun].

  4. しずかだ
    Explanation:

    When a な-adjective is used as a predicate in casual speech, it is followed by 「だ」 (da). 「静か (shizuka)」 + 「だ」 means 'is quiet'. The polite form is 「静かです (shizukadesu)」. Usage: [な-adjective stem] + だ.

  5. よく
    Explanation:

    「よく」 (yoku) is an adverb that can mean 'often' or 'frequently' when describing actions. It can also mean 'well' when describing skill. Here, it indicates frequency. Usage: よく [Verb].

  6. Explanation:

    The pattern 「[Topic] は [Attribute/Part] が [Adjective]」 is used to describe a characteristic of the topic. 「ぞうは」 (as for elephants) sets the topic, and 「鼻 (hana)が長い (nagai)です」 (noses are long) describes a characteristic. Usage: [Topic] は [Noun] が [Adjective].

  7. あれ
    Explanation:

    「あれ」 (are) means 'that (over there)'. It refers to something that is distant from both the speaker and the listener. Usage: あれ は [Noun] ですか.

  8. Explanation:

    The particle 「の」 (no) is used between two nouns to show possession or a relationship. 「私 (watashi)の本 (hon)」 means 'my book' (the book of me). Usage: [Noun 1 (Possessor/Modifier)] の [Noun 2 (Possessed/Modified)].

  9. そうです
    Explanation:

    「そうです」 (sou desu) means 'that's right' or 'it is so'. It is used to affirm a statement or answer a yes/no question affirmatively. Usage: (In response to a question or statement) そうです.

  10. こと
    Explanation:

    「こと」 (koto) can nominalize a verb or verb phrase, turning it into a noun concept meaning 'the act of ~ing' or 'the thing that is ~'. It is often used for more abstract or general 'things' or 'facts' compared to 「の」. Usage: [Verb-dictionary form] + こと.
