(FadeOutcast)は サッカーが すきですか?

Sounds good. We still getting people on their and it to mirror this chat so for now we can do dialogue together here.

なにが すきですか?

なにが すきじゃないですか?

(Cassandraxii)は 犬が すきですか?

Your close. Basically a partner ask the questions first then the other responds and then returns with the questions. You just did both at once which isn`t bad.

Just remember the third question where you ask them if they like something specifically that you want to know.

ex.
(name)は やきゅうが すきですか

(name of person)Do you like baseball ?

Also, when you get time join our discord group, it will be easier in the future to use it as the thread.

I can’t really figure out the last one. I get youtube and I think I understand music? I believe the verb at the end is ‘I think’. Please help.

My reply:
うたはどちらが すきですか。
FMA: BrotherhoodでRainすきです。今ききます。

edit: fixed the grammar mistake. Thanks to @crihak for the advice!

Maybe someone more suited will explain better but:

Firstly: 好き takes the が particle, not the を. Likes and dislikes are handled like adjectives in Japanese :slight_smile:

Secondly: in this case it’s は: “As for songs, which do (you) like”.

It doesn’t make sense to first mark song as subject and then have that subject do “which one is liked?”… if that makes sense.

The が actually goes after どちら like so: うたはどちらすきですか

Hope any of this made sense!

(Also if someone more grammatically qualified does show up, feel free to listen to them instead!)

Thanks! This makes sense. I actually forgot about が when I was writing it. I’ll go back and edit it now.

I should have more confidence in myself because I did think that was what you were trying to say but if I have any doubt I tend not to speak. It’s an issue I have.
Translation: I like BNHA songs and Bleach songs I found that easy to understand.

私もうたのBNHAがすきです。Peace Signがだいすきです。
(I believe I can use だいすき for things).

こんにちは @Quinis
I tend to do the same thing. But yes you should have more confidence in yourself, sometimes you just have to take a deep breath and go for it.

Translation: I also like BNHA songs. I really like Peace Sign. (is this an anime?)
I checked some of the example sentences on Bunpro and Jisho and it looks like you can use だいすき for things.

ごめんなさい、I forgot to translate this one too.
Translation: Which songs do you like?
I like the song Rain in FMA: Brotherhood. I’m listening to it now.

@ufgators2424 I think you should post a new topic every other day, that way there is time for a natural dialogue to happen, rather than just a single interaction.

Also I found an online japanese keyboard here
