Questions & Answers about syuuriirai wo dasimasu.

How do you read 修理依頼を出します?

It is read:

しゅうりいらい を だします。

Word by word:

  • 修理 = しゅうり = repair
  • 依頼 = いらい = request
  • を = object marker particle
  • 出します = だします = submit / send out / put in

So the whole sentence is pronounced:

しゅうりいらい を だします。

What does 修理依頼 mean as one unit?

修理依頼 is a compound noun made from:

  • 修理 = repair
  • 依頼 = request

Together, 修理依頼 means a repair request.

This is very common in Japanese: two nouns are combined to make one more specific noun. So instead of saying something like request for repair with a longer structure, Japanese often just stacks nouns together.

Why is the particle を used here?

を marks the direct object of the verb.

In this sentence, the thing being submitted is 修理依頼.

So:

  • 修理依頼 = the repair request
  • を出します = submit it / put it in / send it out

That is why を is used: it shows what is being acted on by 出します.

Doesn't 出します usually mean take out or put out? Why does it mean submit here?

Yes, 出します literally has a basic meaning like take out, put out, or send out. But in Japanese, it is also very commonly used for submitting things.

For example:

  • 宿題を出します = submit homework
  • 申請を出します = submit an application
  • 報告書を出します = submit a report
  • 修理依頼を出します = submit a repair request

So this is a very natural extension of the idea of putting something forward or sending something out.

What tense is 出します? Is it present or future?

出します is the polite non-past form.

In Japanese, the non-past form can mean:

  • a present habit: I submit
  • a near-future action: I will submit

So depending on context, 修理依頼を出します could mean:

  • I submit repair requests
    or more likely in many situations:
  • I will submit a repair request

Japanese often relies on context rather than marking future tense separately.

Why is the sentence polite?

The verb ends in -ます, which is the standard polite style.

Using -ます makes the sentence appropriate for:

  • workplace communication
  • speaking to customers
  • speaking politely to someone not very close to you

So 修理依頼を出します sounds neutral and polite.

Who is doing the action? I don't see I or we in the sentence.

Japanese often omits the subject when it is clear from context.

So 修理依頼を出します could mean:

  • I will submit a repair request
  • We will submit a repair request
  • sometimes even someone will submit a repair request

The listener usually understands the subject from the situation.

This is very normal in Japanese. A full sentence with an explicit subject is possible, but often unnecessary:

  • 私は修理依頼を出します。 = I will submit a repair request.
Is 修理依頼を出します the same as 修理を依頼します?

Not exactly.

  • 修理依頼を出します = submit a repair request
    • This focuses on the act of filing or sending in the request.
  • 修理を依頼します = request a repair
    • This focuses more directly on asking for the repair itself.

So the difference is mainly in perspective:

  • 修理依頼を出します sounds a bit more administrative or procedural.
  • 修理を依頼します sounds more like I am requesting that it be repaired.

In office or company contexts, 修理依頼を出します is very natural if there is a formal request process.

Why are there spaces in the sentence? Does Japanese normally write spaces like this?

No, standard Japanese normally does not use spaces between words.

It would usually be written as:

修理依頼を出します。

Spaces are often added in learning materials to help beginners see the word boundaries:

  • 修理依頼
  • を
  • 出します

So the spaces are just for readability, not normal native-style writing.

Can this sentence sound formal or businesslike?

Yes. It sounds polite and fairly natural in a workplace or service context, especially when talking about putting in a request through some process.

For example, it could fit situations like:

  • office maintenance
  • IT support
  • equipment repair
  • customer service handling

If you want something even more formal, you might also see expressions like:

  • 修理依頼を提出します = submit a repair request
  • 修理を依頼いたします = I would like to request a repair

But 修理依頼を出します is perfectly understandable and natural in many practical contexts.

Can the sentence mean send out instead of submit?

Literally, yes, because 出します has a broad meaning. But in this context, 修理依頼 strongly suggests submit a repair request, not physically send something out.

Japanese verbs often get their exact meaning from the noun they are used with. So when you see:

  • 依頼を出す
  • 申請を出す
  • 届を出す

the meaning is usually submit / file / put in rather than a literal take out.

So in this sentence, submit is the most natural interpretation.

“How do verb conjugations work in Japanese?”
Japanese verbs conjugate based on tense, politeness, and mood. For example, the polite present form adds ‑ます to the verb stem, while the past tense uses ‑ました. Unlike English, Japanese verbs don't change based on the subject — the same form works for "I", "you", and "they".
