How do you say “You forgot this.” in Japanese?
Today’s phrase is :
You forgot this.
これ忘れてるよ。
kore wasureteruyo
If you want to speak politely, you can say :
これ忘れてますよ。
kore wasuretemasuyo
- you forgot … ＝ あなたは … 忘れてるよ anatawa … wasureteruyo
- this ＝ これ kore
We do not usually say “あなたは anatawa (= you)” in everyday conversation.
これ
this
＋
あなたは 忘れてるよyou forgot
