Key Grammar Structures

• いただきます！美味しいところ

  ➔ いただきます (Itadakimasu)

  ➔ "いただきます" is a polite phrase used in Japanese before eating, similar to 'Bon appétit' in French or saying grace. It expresses gratitude for the meal and the effort that went into preparing it.

• まかせなさい！悩めることも

  ➔ Imperative form + なさい (nasai)

  ➔ "まかせなさい" (makase nasai) uses the imperative form of the verb "任せる" (makaseru, to entrust) with the addition of "なさい" (nasai). "なさい" is a polite but firm way to give a command, often used by superiors or parents. It means 'Leave it to me,' but with a tone of assurance.

• 不可能→可能にしちゃわない？

  ➔ Verb (causative form) + ちゃう (chau) / じゃう (jau) + ない (nai) + ？

  ➔ Here, "可能にしちゃわない？" means 'Shall we make it possible?' The core verb is "する" (suru, to do), which is made causative as "させる" (saseru, to make someone do). "ちゃう/じゃう" is a contraction of "てしまう" and suggests doing something completely or accidentally. "ない" makes it a question in an informal, inviting way. It is used as "させちゃう" instead of "させてしまう"

• 真似できない　個性鳴らせ Funky beat

  ➔ Potential form of verb + negative + noun modifying clause

  ➔ "真似できない" (manedekinai) means 'cannot be imitated.' "できる" (dekiru) is the potential form of "する" (suru), indicating ability. The negative form "できない" makes it 'cannot do'. The clause modifies the implied subject of the sentence.

• 日々 是[これ] Not so easy

  ➔ Noun + は (wa) + adjective

  ➔ "日々はNot so easy" means "Daily life is not so easy." Here, "は" (wa) is the topic marker, indicating that "日々" (hibi, daily life) is the topic of the sentence.

• 集まれば Make it, make it, make it happen!

  ➔ Conditional form (ば) + Imperative form (Make it, make it, make it happen!)

  ➔ "集まれば" (atsumareba) is the conditional form of the verb "集まる" (atsumaru, to gather). The "-ba" form indicates 'if' or 'when' gathering. The second part “Make it, make it, make it happen!” is a call to action in imperative form
