🇫🇷 → 🇯🇵
Your native language (Français) quietly pushes you into specific Japanese errors. Here are the ones to watch — and the fix for each. This is exactly how WordSlick coaches you, every day.
See my full report & start free →French keeps the verb after the subject; Japanese ends every clause with it (watashi wa gohan o taberu). Build the sentence backwards from the verb.
Le/la/les, gender and -s have no Japanese equivalent — nothing replaces them. Particles like は/が/を carry the grammar instead; resist inventing a definiteness marker.
Your tu/vous reflex maps onto plain form vs です/ます — same social calculation, made on every verb. Keigo then adds a third, higher layer above vous.
Particles mark grammatical role — choosing は vs が and を vs に is the core challenge.
Japanese is Subject-Object-Verb; the verb always comes last.
Counting needs the right counter word (一本, 一枚, 一匹) for the object’s shape/type.
WordSlick builds every daily lesson around your real mistakes, coaches your native-language interference, and lets you practise real conversations with instant correction.
