A sentence describing a noun

Examples

** please refer to this for transformation of adjectives.
** Time, such as 昨日 (kinou/yesterday) can be used as a subject in a sentence.
** E.g., 昨日彼は楽しかった (kinou wa tanoshikatta) = He was fun yesterday ** in this example, 彼 (kare) is the subject and は is not needed for 昨日.

Particle: が

N は N2 が Adj

は indicates the subject, が indicates the target of the adjective describes

Example:

彼は背が高い。 (kare wa se ga takai) = He is tall ** 背 = back
昨日、私は調子が悪かった。 (kinou watashi wa choushi ga warui) = I was not in a good condition yesterday ** 調子 = condition, 調子悪い is also OK
私はこれが好きじゃなかった。 (watashi wa kore ga suki ja nakatta) = I did not like this (in this past)

Connecting an adjective to a noun

The above table shows how to transform adjectives, not how to change the type of sentence.

Past-form adjective

彼女は私が好きだった人です。　 (kanojo wa watashi ga suki datta hito) = She is someone I liked.
好きだった人に会います。　(suki datta hito ni aimasu) = I will meet someone I liked.

Past tense

彼はいい人だった。　 (kare ha ii hito datta) = He used to be a good person (He is a bad person now).
好きな人に会いました。　(suki na hito ni aimashita) = I met someone I like.

Adjective from other languages & slang

They are な-adj, but omitting of な is also common. For examples, ハンサム女子 (hansamu josei/handsome girl), イケメン顔 (ikemen gao/good-looking face).

の-Adj

の-Adj is actually using the first noun to describe the second noun using の particle. Sometime, it is considered as the third type of adjectives.

E.g., 理想の国（risou no kuni）= ideal country, 伝説の剣（densetsu no ken）= legendary weapon.
