こんにちは、ちか先生です。

Konnichiwa, it’s Chika Sensei.

 

Today, I’m sharing a practice question for JLPT prep.

This one’s for beginners (JLPT N5)!

Can you choose the correct answer?

 

 

[Practice Question]

 

A:妹さんは学生ですか。

B:はい、(__)。

 

A:いもうとさんは がくせいですか。

B:はい、(__)。

 

1 ああです

2 こうです

3 そうです

4 どうです

 

 

 



 

 

 

[Answer]

 

A:妹さんは学生ですか。

B:はい、(3 そうです)。

 

A: Is your younger sister a student?

B: Yes, that’s right. / Yes, she is.

 

はい、そうです

= “Yes, that’s right.”

 

When someone asks a yes/no question like:

“Is X a Y?” (XはYですか。)

You can use はい、そうです to say “yes.”

It is a very common and polite set phrase.

 

What if the answer is “no”?

You can say: いいえ、ちがいます

This means “No, that’s incorrect.”

 

 

Other options:

ああです / こうです / どうです

→ Not used in this situation.

 

 

I hope this explanation helps! 😊
