Plain Form Test #2

PFT#2 tests your ability to produce orally the NEGATIVE PLAIN PRESENT forms of verbs.

  1. Fill in the blanks on the PFT#2 (Blank Verb Sheet) first.
  2. Confirm the plain forms in the PFT#2 (Answer Sheet).
  3. Practice saying the plain forms based on the polite forms (e.g., だしません arrow ださない). If you prefer, you can download the files and try them on your computer.

On the day of the test:

  1. Come to the designated group session, and your turn will be assigned then.
  2. You will be asked to move back to the Lobby area until your turn comes.
  3. During the test, you will be asked to download the actual test in PDF. The actual test contains the same verbs in a different order from the ones you have practiced.
  4. Once you start the test, you have three (3) minutes (plus additional one minute depending on the condition of the connection that day) to give plain forms ORALLY. Go to each slide one by one as quickly as possible. Remember. Your instructor is looking at the same file you have opened and silently counting your scores as you perform in the test. When the time is up, you will be asked to stop. You are allowed to pass any slide by saying "PASS," but you are NOT allowed to go back to the skipped slides.
  5. Your grade will be converted to a percentage score. If you are able to give all correct answers, your score will be 100.
