🌸 Lesson 21-3 | 東京(とうきょう)の夏(なつ)は暑(あつ)いでしょう? 🌸
How do you check if someone agrees with you in Japanese?
In this lesson, you'll learn the useful expression:
✨ ~でしょう? = …, right? / …, isn’t it?
Use ~でしょう? when you think you know something and want to check if the other person agrees with you.
Practice useful expressions like:
☀️ 東京(とうきょう)の夏(なつ)は暑(あつ)いでしょう?
➡️ Tokyo summers are hot, right?
🚇 東京(とうきょう)の地下鉄(ちかてつ)は便利(べんり)でしょう?
➡️ The Tokyo subway is convenient, isn’t it?
You’ll also learn how to use ~でしょう? to talk about the past:
✨ ~だったでしょう?
✨ ~かったでしょう?
For example:
⚽ すごい試合(しあい)だったでしょう?
➡️ It was an amazing game, wasn’t it?
☀️ 昨日(きのう)は暑(あつ)かったでしょう?
➡️ It was hot yesterday, wasn’t it?
🎉 お祭(まつ)りはにぎやかだったでしょう?
➡️ The festival was lively, wasn’t it?
You’ll also practice the difference between the present and past forms:
✨ 暑(あつ)いでしょう? → 暑(あつ)かったでしょう?
✨ にぎやかでしょう? → にぎやかだったでしょう?
✨ 休(やす)みでしょう? → 休(やす)みだったでしょう?
