Chapter 5: to invite and to refuse
Wednesday lesson with IsonoSensei.

I showed up late to the class today. Apparently PRICK-san was reallied worried and leapt with joy when TangoMaster arrived ahead of me.

Here's the Grammar Points from Today's class:

GRAMMAR POINT 1:
Ways to invite, without actually coming right out and asking, only thinking aloud to yourself...

Grammar Point 1A
V(plain form)~n da kedo, isshoni dou kana to omotte...?

OR

Grammar Point 1B
N de mo (isshoni) dou desu ka?

Examples for 1A and 1B
J-Liigu no kippu ga ni mai aru n da kedo, isshoni dou kana to omotte...

Shokuji de mo isshoni dou desu ka?

GRAMMAR POINT 2: How to say SOMEONE ELSE wantS to do some VERB
When you want to say that someone else wants to do some Verb, you use the form:

V(-masu stem) + TAGARU (conjugate like normal RU Type II verb).

RECALL, when saying I want to do something, you use:
V(-masu stem) + TAI (conjugate like any i-adj).

Examples:
Kodomo-tachi mo Lee-san ni totemo aiTAGATTE IMASU.
Watashi wa Lee-san ni totemo aiTAI desu.
