How do you say “I like cooking.” in Japanese?
Today’s phrase is :
I like cooking.
料理好きなんだ。
ryouri* sukinanda
If you want to speak politely, you can say :
料理が好きです。
ryouriga* sukidesu
*We pronounce “ryouri” like “ryōri”.
- I like … ＝ わたしは … が好きです watashiwa … ga sukidesu
- cooking ＝ 料理 ryouri
We do not usually say “わたしは watashiwa (= I)” in everyday conversation.
料理が
cooking
