Learn Japanese N4 Grammar: -masu Form

The JLPT N4 is the second level of the Japanese Language Proficiency Test, and covers about 50 different grammar forms. The -masu form is the form of a Japanese verb when it has -masu at the end; for example, the -masu form of morau is morai, because you say moraimasu.

Learning Japanese grammar is not difficult, it just takes practice and perseverance. Spend just a few minutes every day practicing and reviewing grammar (especially sample JLPT test questions), and your Japanese skill will improve quickly.
