Hi guys, it's your senpai again


Last few posts we talked about sentence structure, particles and a few particles and uses.

So, today's particle of the day is

へ・e



note: hiragana へ(he) is pronounced as "e" when used as a particle



へ is like an arrow that points the way to a destination or a direction.


In other words, The particle へ indicates a destination, or the direction that something is heading.

(gif: "ohh is that so")

It is similar to "to(direction)" or "towards(direction)" in english



"日本へ行く・にほんへいく・nihon e iku"
Here, "日本・にほん・nihon" means japan, and "行く・いく・I ku" means "to go"
(Not the other thing that you heard in hentai, I know what you are thinking about)


Since へ here is the direction marker, the word structure here is "place towards go"

So, this sentence translates to "go to japan"

note: it does not have to be a physical direction/place, it can also be figurative direction/place (I.e. success)

If you have any questions please ask me and I will try my best to answer😊

Note: I am also learning japanese myself, so I might have made some mistakes. I did try to fact check everything before I wrote it, but I am only human after all. So if you spot any mistakes, please tell me🙏

If you have any advice on how I can make these posts better, then please tell me.
