[JLPT grammar] 来週に日本に行く→Incorrect
Today I am going to share the homework correction quoted from my JLPT N4 course!
The student’s sentence is not correct. Can you find the mistake?
[Student’s sentence]
友だちが来週に日本に行くそうです。
*友(とも)だち
来週(らいしゅう)
日本(にほん)
行(い)く
▼
▼
▼
[My correction]
友だちが来週に日本に行くそうです。
→友だちが来週日本に行くそうです。(×来週に)
(I have heard) My friend is going to Japan next week.
How to use に to indicate a specific point in time:
[Number, day of the week]に
1月に、
24日に、
日曜日(にちようび)に、
2022年に、
This に indicates the time that does not shift as time progresses.
[No number]×
あした(×)、
来週(×)、
きょねん(×)、
来月(×)、
に is not used for the time that changes depending on when “now” is.
e.g.
◎友だちが来週日本に行くそうです。
◎友だちが11月1日に日本に行くそうです。
I hope it helps you.😊
In the JLPT course, all lessons come with homework, if you submit your homework, I will reply with corrections.
I can break down the Japanese grammar and point out mistakes, explaining the structure and nuances of Japanese in an easy-to-understand way.
You can also ask me any questions as much as you want. I will teach you until you get it!
