Today I am going to share the Q&A quoted from my JLPT N4 course!

 

[Question]

のに means always “but”, right?
What do you mean このじてんしゃは学校に行くのにつかいます。
“I’m going to school on this bicycle, but I use it”???

 

[My Reply]

〜のに as “but” and, the 〜のに is different grammar.

・このじてんしゃは学校に行くのにつかいます。
I use this bicycle to go to school

The のに means “for, to do…”.
The particle に is a use.
The の is used to connect a verb and a noun.

[verb]の＋に(particle)
行く＋の＋に
use じてんしゃ to 学校に行く
＝学校に行くのにつかいます

[noun]＋に(particle)
パソコンはしごとにつかいます。
I use my computer for work.

 

I hope my answer helps you. 😊

 

 

In the JLPT course, you can ask me any questions as much as you want.
I will teach you until you get it!
