That way, we can name a set of things that exist somewhere or things that we are going to do.<\/p>\n<p>At this point, many readers may be remembering the Japanese particle\u00a0<em>I&#039;m<\/em>, which also creates lists of Japanese nouns.<\/p>\n<h2>The YA particle in Japanese<\/h2>\n<p>The basic difference between these two particles is the fact that the particle\u00a0<em>I&#039;m<\/em>\u00a0is used to create an exhaustive list of nouns, obligatorily mentioning all elements.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, the particle\u00a0<em>ya<\/em>\u00a0is used to create a \u201cnon-exhaustive\u201d list of nouns, where it is not necessary to mention all the elements.<\/p>\n<h2>Creating noun lists with the YA particle<\/h2>\n<p>To create a noun list with the particle\u00a0<em>ya<\/em>, just add the particle after each noun. As this is a \u201cnon-exhaustive\u201d list, it is not necessary to mention all the elements.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Example:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><acronym title=\"pan ya tamago ya miruku o kaimashita.\">\u30d1\u30f3\u3084\u305f\u307e\u3054\u3084\u30df\u30eb\u30af\u3092\u8cb7\u3044\u307e\u3057\u305f\u3002<\/acronym><\/p>\n<p><em>I bought bread, eggs, milk and so on. \/ I bought bread, eggs and milk among other things.<\/em><br \/>\n<br \/>\nNote that the particle\u00a0<em>ya<\/em>\u00a0turns into commas when translated into Portuguese. Also, in Japanese to Portuguese translations, it is common to add words like \u201cand etc\u201d or \u201camong other things\u201d at the end of the word list.<\/p>\n<p>This is because the lists with the particle\u00a0<em>ya<\/em>\u00a0it does not mention all the elements and implies that there are others not mentioned in the sentence.<\/p>\n<h2>Using etc explicitly in noun lists<\/h2>\n<p>In some <a href=\"https:\/\/comoaprenderjapones.net\/en\/japanese-basic-vocabulary-for-beginners\/\">japanese phrases<\/a>, it is common to find the particle\u00a0<em>swim<\/em>\u00a0after a list of Japanese words using the particle\u00a0<em>ya<\/em>. In this case the particle\u00a0<em>swim<\/em>\u00a0works like our \u201cetc\u201d or \u201c\u2026\u201d at the end of sentences, explicitly indicating that there are more items that were not mentioned in the word list.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Example:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><acronym title=\"teeburu no ue ni enpitsu ya nihongo no hon ya osushi nado ga arimasu.\">\u30c6\u30fc\u30d6\u30eb\u306e\u4e0a\u306b\u3048\u3093\u3074\u3064\u3084\u65e5\u672c\u8a9e\u306e\u672c\u3084\u304a\u3059\u3057<span style=\"color: #ff6600\">\u306a\u3069<\/span>\u304c\u3042\u308a\u307e\u3059\u3002<\/acronym><\/p>\n<p><em>On the table there are pencils, Japanese book, sushi\u00a0<span style=\"color: #ff6600\">and etc<\/span>.<\/em><\/p>\n<h2>Indicating that one action happens immediately after another<\/h2>\n<p>when the particle\u00a0<em>ya<\/em>\u00a0appears after a <a href=\"https:\/\/comoaprenderjapones.net\/en\/japanese-informal-verbs-mode\/\">japanese verb in dictionary form<\/a>, it may indicate that the next action took place right after the action described above. In cases like this, the particle\u00a0<em>ya<\/em>\u00a0it can be translated as \u201cas soon as\u201d, \u201cas soon\u201d, \u201cas soon as\u201d, \u201cas soon as\u201d or something like that.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Examples:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><acronym title=\"kanojo wa, boku no sugata o miru ya, ikari o bakuhatsu saseta.\">\u5f7c\u5973\u306f\u3001\u50d5\u306e\u59ff\u3092\u898b\u308b<span style=\"color: #ff6600\">\u3084<\/span>\u3001\u6012\u308a\u3092\u7206\u767a\u3055\u305b\u305f\u3002<\/acronym><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"color: #ff6600\">In the moment that\u00a0<\/span>she saw me, started having a tantrum.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><acronym title=\"watashi o miru ya, kanojo ha egao from aisatsu o shite.\">\u79c1\u3092\u898b\u308b<span style=\"color: #ff6600\">\u3084<\/span>\u3001\u5f7c\u5973\u306f\u7b11\u9854\u3067\u6328\u62f6\u3092\u3057\u3066\u3002<\/acronym><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"color: #ff6600\">As soon as<\/span>\u00a0she saw me, greeted me with a smile.<\/em><\/p>\n<h2>Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>despite the particle\u00a0<em>ya<\/em>\u00a0have other functions, the most basic functions are described above.
