Exercise 1
Step 1
1 of 2
‘高い(たかい)’ means both ‘tall’ and ‘expensive.’ We use a special phrase to refer to a person’s height, however: ‘あの人は背が高いです(あの人はせがたかいです)’ which simply means ‘that person over there is tall.’
Here we will use the demonstrative adjectives that we learned in Chapter 2 in combination with the adjectives we learned in Chapter 5. This question will use a standard ‘XはYです’ construction, so we are able to plug the correct words into the familiar structure to create the right translation. We arrive at this answer:
この時計は高いです。
この時けいはたかいです。
