How do you say “I have to clean my room.” in Japanese?
Today’s phrase is :
I have to clean my room.
部屋の片付けしないと。
heyano katazuke shinaito
- I have to clean … ＝ わたしは … の片付けしないと watashiwa … no katazuke shinaito
- my room ＝ わたしの部屋 watashino heya
We do not usually say “わたしは watashiwa (= I)” or “わたしの watashino (= my)” in everyday conversation.
わたしの 部屋の
my room
＋
わたしは 片付けしないとI have to clean
