    There are two types of adjectives in avant-garde Japanese . Both types of adjectives are acclimated as anecdotic words , and both can adapt nouns. However, they affix to additional words and anatomy predicates differently. The first is the na-adjective, alleged because it connects to nouns using ? na. The Japanese name for na-adjective is keiyoudoushi. We will altercate the additional blazon of adjective, the i-adjective, in the next chapter.

    In this text, if we explain grammar, we will abridge the na-adjective as NA-ADJ.

    When acclimated as predicates, na-adjectives behave just like nouns. That is:

    Look at these examples:

    #?? Genki da.

    ##??? Kirei desu.

    ##?????? Hansamu da.

    ##?? Yuushuu da.

    ##??? Yuumei desu.

    ##?? Taisetsu da.

    ##??? Kantan desu.

    Note that the pronoun acclimated in the adaptation (I, he, she, etc.) is not adumbrated in the Japanese sentence. The pronouns accustomed in these translations are examples only. In reality, any pronoun or even any noun could be acclimated depending on context. For example, ? genki da can beggarly Im well, Hes well, Theyre well, etc. This will be discussed in added detail later.

    As mentioned above, the chat na-adjective comes from the actuality that the adjective connects to a noun by abacus ? na. For example:
