Te form in Japanese

To create the te form from a dictionary form, follow these rules:

  • For ru verbs, drop the final るru and add て te.
  • For u verbs that end in すsu, change the final syllable to して shite.
  • For u verbs that end in くku, change the final syllable to いて ite; for u verbs that end in
  • gu, change the final syllable to いで ide.
  • For u verbs that end in う(w)u, る ru, or つ tsu, change these final syllables to って tte.
  • For u verbs that end in む mu, ぬ nu, or ぶ bu, change these final syllables to んで nde.
  • Keep in mind that the verb いく iku is slightly irregular, and its te form is いって itte.
  • The te forms of the irregular verbs する suru and くる kuru are して shite and きて kite.
The following table shows examples of these rules:
