Today I am going to share the homework correction quoted from my JLPT N3 course!
The student’s sentence is not correct. Can you find the mistake?

 

[Student’s sentence]

 

おもしろそう映画ですね、見たいです。

*おもしろそうえいがですね、みたいです。

[My correction]

 

おもしろそう映画ですね、見たいです。
→おもしろそうな映画ですね、見たいです。
It sounds like an interesting movie. I’d like to see it.

 

〜そう portion is conjugated the same way as na-adjectives.

 

〜そう｜だ　plain-style
〜そう｜じゃない　plain-style, negative
〜そう｜です　polite-style
〜そう｜じゃありません　polite-style, negative
〜そう｜な[Noun]　noun modification

おもしろそう｜な[映画＝Noun]

 

Here are some examples:
・やさしそうな先生(せんせい)
He/she seems to be a kind and gentle teacher.

・たいへんそうな仕事(しごと)
It seems like a tough job.

・高(たか)そうな服(ふく)
These clothes look expensive.

 

I hope my explanation 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!
