🇮🇹 → 🇯🇵
Your native language (Italiano) 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 →Italian’s five pure vowels are nearly identical to Japanese あいうえお, and Italian double consonants (sette, nonno) are exactly the っ skill: きって vs きて works like sette vs sete. Big pronunciation head start.
Italian keeps the verb beside the subject; Japanese sends it to the end of every clause. Say the verb last, always — even in long sentences.
Italian already drops io/tu; Japanese drops even more — subjects, objects, anything obvious. But there’s no verb ending to show the person, so context alone carries it.
Il/la/i/gli/le, gender and plural endings all disappear — Japanese nouns never change form. Particles like は/が/を do the structural work instead.
Italian Lei is a pronoun switch; Japanese politeness is conjugation — plain form vs です/ます on every sentence, plus honorifics above that. Choose the level before you speak, not per word.
Particles mark grammatical role — choosing は vs が and を vs に is the core challenge.
