に (In)

In, At, To, For, On

JLPT N5
Pattern

Noun + に

How it works

に marks a point: where something exists (with ある/いる), the destination or direction of movement (行く, まがる), the person who receives (あげる) or gives (もらう), and specific times (3時に, 日曜日に). Relative times like きょう and あした take no particle.

Examples

  • 7時に おきます。I get up at 7.
  • かどを 右に まがって ください。Please turn right at the corner.
  • くだものは どこに ありますか。Where is the fruit?
