皆さん、お元気でしょうか。
ミア先生です。今日は　は　英語で　「がすき　です」　と　言う　文法について　お話ししたいと思います。
HELLO EVERYONE, How are you? Are you guys doing well? It’s me your Japanese teacher Mia.
So today we are going to learn about 「GA SUKI DESU」 Grammar. This is a JLPT N5 grammar point and we use this to say “I like something”.  

The structure or the word order of this grammar is pretty easy. You just need to say the noun and “ga suki desu” after that.
For example,  if you want to say “I like Apple”, 
we need to say I first, then Apple and Ga suki desu. Okay, let’s do this.
•	We know how to say I right, I is わたし(watashi)　in Japanese. 
•	And don’t forget は　particle,we need to say は（wa) particle after the subject of the sentence. 
•	So we say わたし　は　（Watashi wa） ,
•	and then we have to say apple ( apple is りんご　(ringo)　in Japanese)
•	and just say がすき　ですga suki desu 。
So It should beわたし　は　りんご　が　すきです。( watashi war ringo ga suki desu. )
See it’s that easy my friends. Okay now let’s say “I like cars”
Now we know I is わたし　は　、　and for car, we say くるま　
Okay, now it’s your chance to say the sentence. I am going to give you a few seconds.
はい、わたし　は　くるま　が　すき　です。That’s right.
Let’s do one more sentence, He likes Money.
He is かれ
Money is おかね
So how do we say “he likes money“　it’s かれ　は　おかね　が　すきです。(kare wa okane ga suki desu)
Perfect, Okay then this is a very simple grammar friends, I hope you learned it really well. Keep studying Japanese. I’ll meet you with another lesson. じゃ　がんばってね。。BYE BYE
