some information on the 出るverb use

Postby jhoel85 » April 3rd, 2009 1:47 pm

こんにちは みんなさん i'm back with another question sorry for annoying XD

the question is related with the 出る use, i have found a little phrase on my texbook the sentence is this:

チェンさんはあしたはクラスに出ないと思います。

i have a little trouble about what this phrase mean. someone tell me, it should be translate in something like this "i think chen-san won't go at the tomorrow lesson"

but what is hard for me to undestand is the meaning of 出る in this context, 出る should be mean: to go out, to exit, to live. so , is the translate correct? thx for the help, and sorry for my english XD , as i've told in my first post 私は英語があまり上手じゃありません XD i hope you understand.

出る can also mean "to appear" or perhaps more accurately in this context "to show up". So in the sample sentence you provided, 出る in its negative form would mean "won't show up".

Hope that helps. :)

そう そう わかりました ,so in this sentence for to understand better the mean needs keep attention at the particles, here に is very important, i think, don't you? if instead of に was を, 出るmeaning woul have been : to go out, to exit.

thx for the reply.

Yes. に is what you 出る in to, を is what you 出る out of. You might not actually mention one or the other, but the meaning of the actual word is essentially the same.
