Kitty's Journal: 雨の日 (Rainy Day)

Hi there, friends! I've written another journal entry. See if you can read it all, or if you're more advanced than I am, please point out what I can work on. I learned some new grammar and I was eager to try it out! Let's see how it goes. Stick around to read about the new grammar rule I learned, too!

これは私の机です。お茶があります。

雨の日

2019年7月12日

今日は雨です。

今日は中で何をしますか？ じゃあ。。。

聖書と日本語を勉強するつもりです。

お茶を飲むつもりです。

猫と遊ぶつもりです。

床を掃くつもりです。

そして、たくさん音楽を聴くつもりです！

しゃあ、行ってきます！ またね！

Lesson Time!

The new grammar I used in this entry is the "plan-to" form, which is used when you intend to do something in the future. If I understand it right, to use it, take the plain form of a verb and add "つもり" followed by "です." For example...

食べる (to eat) + つもり + です

So "食べるつもりです" means "I plan to eat!"

Pretty handy, right? After reading my last journal entry, a user on the Duolingo forums recommended I learn this form so that's just what I did. If you'd like to suggest something new for me to learn, shout it out in the comments!

So what do you think? Do you plan to use this sentence structure?
