What does shimasen mean in Japanese?

Answer 1

You really need context for this...

Shusshin is the persons hometown and desu means it is

so if you were to use it in a sentence it would look something like

Watashi WA pari ni shusshin desu.

That means I am from Paris.

Watashi - I

WA - Topic of descussion

Pari - Paris

ni - Location particle

Shusshin - Where the person is from

Desu - It is.

Hope this helped

Grammatically looking, 'tsukimasu' is polite (-masu) form of the verb 'tsuku'. But 'tsuku' can mean many things, depending on context and kanji. E.g. 'Kare WA uso wo tsukimasu' would mean 'he lies'.

Answer 3

Since pronouns/grammatical persons are often assumed and thus omitted in Japanese this can mean '(will) read' and the subject can be anybody. It's present simple tense (also used for future tense) taken from 'yomu' which most commonly means 'to read', but with different writings 'yomu' can mean also 'to chant, to recite' as well.

Answer 4

Excuse me, I'm sorry, or thank you, depending on the context.
