Japanese 101 - Linking Adjectives (Mini-Lesson)

Linking adjectives are fairly easy.

With い adjectives, take the い off, and add くて.
If no い is present, then add くて directly.
Do not add くて to the last adjective, leave it as it is.

Example:

I want to say "This computer is old and loud"
The words for old is ふるい, and loud is うるさい

so ふるい would become ふるくて, and you would leave うるさい as it is.
このパスコンがふるくてうるさいです


With な adjectives, just add くて afterwards, no changing needed

Example:
I want to say "Yuki is quiet and beautiful isn't she"

Quiet is しずか, which becomes しずかくて, and beautiful, きれい (this is a な adjective), we leave as it is, because it is the last adjective in the list.

ゆきがしずかくてきれいですね。
