Writer's picture: Indu ShrivastavaIndu Shrivastava

If you don't know how to make 'tai' form of the verb, please read this post → Tai form



 

'~tai/たい' form of the verbs behave as 'い' type adjectives and therefore we will follow the same steps for changing 'たい’ form as well.


Let's quickly review how to change the 'い' type adjectives to negative form.

あつい→remove い→ add くない= あつくない


Using the same steps,

たべたい (want to eat) →remove い → add くない= たべたくない (don't want to eat)

のみたい (want to drink) →remove い → add くない=のみたくない (don't want to drink)

いきたい→いきたくない (don't want to go)

つくりたい→つくりたくない (don't want to make)

のりたい→のりたくない (don't want to ride)


And that's it !

Now, let's make some sentences !
