🌸 Beginner Japanese Lesson 23-3 | ハンドルを回(まわ)すと、カプセルが出(で)てきます。🌸

What does 「~と」 mean in Japanese?

In this lesson, you'll learn the useful pattern:

V(dictionary form)+ と

Use 「~と」 when one action naturally leads to a result.

👉 A + と、B
When A happens, B naturally follows.

You can use this pattern to explain how things work, give directions, and talk about things that naturally happen.

For example:

🎁 ハンドルを回(まわ)すと、カプセルが出(で)てきます。
➡️ When you turn the handle, a capsule comes out.

🥤 ボタンを押(お)すと、ジュースが出(で)ます。
➡️ When you press the button, a drink comes out.

🏪 二(ふた)つ目(め)の角(かど)を右(みぎ)へ曲(ま)がると、コンビニがあります。
➡️ When you turn right at the second corner, there is a convenience store.

🏥 まっすぐ行(い)くと、病院(びょういん)があります。
➡️ If you go straight, there is a hospital.

🌸 春(はる)になると、桜(さくら)が咲(さ)きます。
➡️ When spring comes, the cherry blossoms bloom.

💡 POINT

Use the dictionary form before 「と」.

回(まわ)します → 回(まわ)すと
曲(ま)がります → 曲(ま)がると
行(い)きます → 行(い)くと

With 「~と」, think about what naturally happens after A.

A happens → B naturally follows

Listen to the conversations and practice these useful expressions with Nozomi! 🎧🌸
