Grammar Rules
Rule 1: Using に for entering/boarding
Use the particle に with verbs like のります (to get on/board) and はいります (to enter) to mark the vehicle or place you are boarding or entering. に shows the destination or target of the movement. This applies to trains, buses, cars, elevators, rooms, buildings, and even computers or websites.
Rule 2: Using を for exiting/disembarking
Use the particle を with verbs like おります (to get off/disembark) and でます (to leave/exit) to mark the vehicle or place you are leaving. を here shows the point of departure or separation. This is a special use of を that does not mean
Rule 3: Describing characteristics with が
Use this pattern to describe a specific part or characteristic of a person or thing. The topic (whole person/thing) is marked by は, the specific feature is marked by が, and the adjective describes that feature. This is very common for physical appearance (height, eye color, personality) and avoids saying
Rule 4: Asking for methods with どうやって
Use どうやって to ask about the method, means, or process of doing something. It means
