“Arimasu” (あります) in Japanese has a few different meanings depending on the context, but its core meaning relates to existence or possession of inanimate objects, places, or abstract things.
Here are the main translations and usages:
1. To exist (inanimate objects, places, abstract things):
* This is the most common meaning. It indicates that something is located somewhere or that something exists.
* Example: “Hon ga tsukue no ue ni arimasu.” (本が机の上にあります。) - “There is a book on the desk.”
* Example: “Koko ni eki ga arimasu.” (ここに駅があります。) - “There is a station here.”
* Example: “Ashita wa jikan ga arimasu.” (明日は時間があります。) - “I have time tomorrow.” (Time is an abstract concept here)
* Example: “Mondai ga arimasu.” (問題があります。) - “There is a problem.”
2. To have (inanimate objects, abstract things):
* Similar to the existence of abstract things, “arimasu” can also indicate possession of inanimate objects. However, for living things (people and animals), the verb “imasu” (います) is used for “to be” or “to have.”
* Example: “Watashi wa kuruma ga arimasu.” (私は車があります。) - “I have a car.”
Key takeaway:
* Arimasu (あります) is used for inanimate objects, places, and abstract things to express existence or possession.
* Imasu (います) is used for animate beings (people and animals) to express existence.
Therefore, the English translation of “arimasu” will vary depending on the specific sentence, but it generally translates to:
* There is/are… (for existence)
* I/You/He/She/It/We/They have… (for possession of inanimate objects or abstract things)
To understand the precise meaning of “arimasu” in a given situation, you need to consider the subject of the sentence and what is being described as existing or being possessed.
