How to Say “I went to bed at _ last night.” in Japanese

by Tomoyuki Higuchi

How do you say “I went to bed at 11:00 last night.” in Japanese?

Today’s phrase is :

I went to bed at _ last night.

昨日は _ 時に寝たよ。

　kinouwa* _ jini netayo

If you want to speak politely, you can say :

昨日は _ 時に寝ました。

　kinouwa* _ jini nemashita

When you want to say “I went to bed at _ last night.”, put the time just before “時 ji”.

“時” means “o’clock”.

For example, if you want to say “I went to bed at 11:00 last night.”, you can say like this :

昨日は１１時に寝たよ。

　kinouwa juuichijini netayo

Or politely :

昨日は１１時に寝ました。

　kinouwa juuichijini nemashita

• I　＝　わたしは　watashiwa
• went to bed　＝　寝た　neta
• at …　＝　… に　ni
• last night　＝　昨日の夜　kinouno yoru

We do not usually say “わたしは watashiwa (= I)” in everyday conversation.
