How to Use Verbs of Change in Japanese
There are many verbs that express change in Japanese. The most basic one is, naru (to become). The verb naru is used in [Noun ni naru] and [basic Verb you ni naru]. "~ Ni Naru" Michiko wa kyonen bengoshi ni narimashita. é “å 㠯åŽ »Ã¥ ¹ ´Ã¥ ¼ è ·Ã¥ £ «Ã£ «Ã£ ªÃ£â€šÅ 㠾ã â€"ã Ÿ.Michiko became a lawyer last year.Yamada-sensei wa rainen kouchou ni narimasu. Ã¥ ± ±Ã§â€ °Ã¥â€¦Ë†Ã§â€Å¸Ã£ ¯Ã¦ ¥Ã¥ ¹ ´Ã¦ ¡Ã©â€¢ ·Ã£ «Ã£ ªÃ£â€šÅ 㠾㠙。Mr. Yamada will become principal next year.Tomoko wa hirou no tame, byouki ni narimashita. æ™ ºÃ¥ 㠯çâ€" ²Ã¥Å ´Ã£ ®Ã£ Ÿã‚ 〠çâ€"…æ °â€"㠫㠪ã‚Š㠾ã â€"㠟。 Tomoko became sick from fatigue.Mada natsu ni narimasen. 㠾ã Ã¥ ¤ 㠫㠪ã‚Š㠾㠛ん。 Summer has not yet come. In these sentences, the words, bengoshi kouchou byouki and natsu all express the resulting state. As for the fourth example, the subject is omitted. Natures seasonal changes, such as it getting hotter and spring arriving, are described using naru. For example, natsu ni narimashita Ã¥ ¤ 㠫㠪ã‚Š㠾ã â€"ã Ÿ, which literally means, it has become summer. The English expression would be summer has come. Change in Adjectives Change in state may be expressed not only by nouns, as seen in the examples above, but also by adjectives. When accompanied by adjectives, they take adverbial form. As for the I-adjective, replace the final ~ i with ~ ku to make the adverbial form. Ookii Ã¥ ¤ §Ã£ ã „ (big) ---- ookiku (naru) Ã¥ ¤ §Ã£ ã (㠪ã‚‹)Atarashii æâ€" °Ã£ â€"ã „ (new) --- atarashiku (naru) æâ€" °Ã£ â€"ã (㠪ã‚‹)Atsui æš‘ã „ (hot) --- atsuku (naru) æš‘ã (㠪ã‚‹)Yasui Ã¥ ®â€°Ã£ „ (cheap) --- yasuku (naru) Ã¥ ®â€°Ã£ (㠪ã‚‹) As for Na-adjective, replace the final ~ na with ~ ni.

It translates to, it will be decided that ~; come about ~; turn out that ~. Even if the speaker decides to do something, it sounds more indirect and more humble to use this structure rather than using, koto ni suru (decide to do).

Essay on Sociology on Marriage - 1621 Words
12/2/2010 Sociology Final Paper Marriage and Family The simplest and most basic foundation of a sociological civilization or group begins at the core center of sociology; which is marriage and the inner-fabric creation of a family. It is said that matches are made in heaven, however finding and defining your â€Å"soul mate†differs from one social group to the next. The social institution of marriage changes and adapts consistently through time, religious practice, and national beliefs. Many people believe they lead happy and satisfying lives without a marital partner, as others highly value and desire a life-long marital partner as the pinnacle achievement of their life. The uniqueness of marriage is that every race, class,†¦show more content†¦Examples include housewives desiring to hold a full time career or practicing exogamous (marrying outside of your race, age, race, class) marriages. Functionalists describe these changes as a diminishment of the family’s functions which produces soci al disorganization and confusion. The unfortunate result is the high divorce rate in the United States in 2010, at over fifty percent. Religion and the Bible encourage, and perhaps demand marriage from two individuals to create them as one. The Lord God said, It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him (Genesis 2:18). That at the beginning the Creator made them male and female, and said, For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh? So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate (Mathew: 19:4-6). Why does religion place such an importance on a union of marriage? An answer is suggestively related as to why automobile and health insurance companies provide a discount on their policies when filing married. According to State Farm Auto Insurance, two married individuals are much more likely to accept upon themselves responsibility, maturity, and a longer healthier and more satisfying life. Insurance agencies believe your life will be more structured and meaningful, to provide you with a policy.

Brush With Aids Case Study Essay Research free essay sample
Brush With Aids Case Study Essay, Research Paper Self-responsibility and involvement can be examined in different positions. By nature, a individual normally expects to make his end without sing the possibility of his or her determination and how it may impact the community around them. It is frequently times really hard to distinguish duty from self-interest due to the fact that the effects of being responsible struggle with the accomplishments of personal ends. Harmonizing to the A Brush with AIDS instance survey, the character faces the job of doing a determination, based on her self-interest and societal duty. The effect of taking creates many hazards, non merely for her calling, but for her repute as good. If a determination gives benefits to a individual individual, and non to a whole society, the determination can be judged as being a responsible 1. The hazard is derived from doing a responsible determination without sing the benefits to one # 8217 ; s self. The character # 8217 ; s calling becomes really successful when she is promoted from a gross revenues representative to a senior market director. She begins to gain a bigger income and more duty from her company, Sharp # 8217 ; s. The company is making really good since the sale of its # 8217 ; wellness merchandises went from $ 9.6 million to $ 135 million in one-year gross revenues. The character does non anticipate any future jobs with her calling. But shortly, jobs start to originate. It comes to illume that some of Sharp # 8217 ; s containers broke in cold temperature, doing merchandise failures that put clean housing forces and nurses in great hazard. The hazard of being infected with deathly disease, such as AIDS, rises for infirmary employees, because of the hapless quality of Sharp # 8217 ; s merchandises. The character recognizes the merchandise # 8217 ; s failure, but still must contend with herself to whether or non replacing the old Sharp # 8217 ; s merchandises will profit her future calling and whether or non it is worth it. If the merchandise is replaced, it will necessitate extra costs, every bit good as holds with the expected net income programs for the company. She suspects that the publicity she expects will besides be put on the backburner for at least another 18-24 months, non to advert the hold on the net income marks. She is in a great quandary because everything she has ever wanted ( e.g. money and a high-level determination ) will be hers, if she merely decides to travel after her ain ego involvements. Without changing the Sharp production program and obeying her manager # 8217 ; s orders, she will be good off though at the same clip she will be pretermiting the safety of 100s of guiltless people who are utilizing or will utilize Sharp # 8217 ; s faulty merchandis e. And what if the Sharp merchandise is modified, what so? The new merchandise introduced to the market could stop up being faulty every bit good. This could do another production failure. The corporation besides needs to make up ones mind to take hazards on new merchandise investings. The character could perchance lose her occupation because she is responsible for the success and failure of each new production. If she is lucky, she will be promoted and earn high regard from her fellow employees. She can either win or lose. Without trusting on her opportunism, the character can offer several accounts on new production to the board members. Despite and inordinate sale of Sharp merchandises, the corporation will gain a big amount of money in the short tally, but in the long tally, the corporation will confront farther client ailments and endanger its # 8217 ; repute because of its # 8217 ; faulty merchandises. With the figure of expected gross revenues from Sharp merchandises # 8217 ; , a gross net income of $ 128,000 and an expected net income of $ 29.4 million is estimated to be merely 4 % of the expected one-year net income. If the corporation would be willing to put 4 % of the expected net income to put in a new modified merchandise ; the patients # 8217 ; or infirmary employees would be willing to pay a higher monetary value, since medical specialty and wellness provider are imperfect goods. Sharp # 8217 ; s old stock list could be disposed and recycled to make the new, improved merchandise. The corporation could take advantage of the new merchandise and extinguish other Sharp merchandise providers from the market. Besides, if the CDC and OSHA could prove that the new merchandise was effectual and safe to utilize, the corporation could besides take full advantage to advance the new merchandise and get a larger net income in the close hereafter. The client ailments about the 1987 needle lodging could besides be grounds for the character to carry the board members to O.K. the financess to modify the merchandise and the manager # 8217 ; s orders could so be overruled. The former one-year net income program would hold to be eliminated, but the corporation would be bring forthing better wellness attention merchandises to supply to the wellness attention community. The ethical issue can be discussed on the determination of the character to either do a pick based on opportunism or one based on societal duty. The duty of providing faulty Sharp merchandises to infirmaries, thereby increasing the hazard of diseases such as AIDS, which would non be an ethical determination. If the character wanted to gain a publicity by run intoing the one-year net income program, without puting on the alterations of a new merchandise, so that would non be considered an ethical determination. On the other manus, if the character could carry the corporate board members to put on the new merchandise, it would be considered ethical decision-making. The opportunity that diseases could infect the infirmary employees would be low and wellness attention services would be more efficient and effectual to new patients. 33b

sfgdg Essays - The Narrows, Geography Of New York City,
The Narrows, a tidal stream between the New York City boroughs of Staten Island and Brooklyn, connects the upper and lower sections of New York Bay. It has long been considered the maritime "gateway" to New York City and historically has been the most important entrance into the harbor. The Narrows were most likely formed about 6,000 years ago at the end of the last ice age. Previously, Staten Island and Long Island were connected, preventing the Hudson River from terminating via The Narrows. At that time, the Hudson River emptied into the Atlantic Ocean through a more westerly course through parts of present day northern New Jersey, along the eastern side of the Watchung Mountains to Bound Brook, New Jersey and then on into the Atlantic Ocean via Raritan Bay. A build up of water in the Upper Bay eventually allowed the Hudson River to break through previous land mass that was connecting Staten Island and Brooklyn to form The Narrows as it exists today. This allowed the Hudson River to find a shorter route to the Atlantic Ocean via its present course between New Jersey and New York City (Waldman, 2000).
