atarasii hito wo yatoimasu.

It is read:

あたらしい ひと を やといます。
Atarashii hito o yatoimasu.

A few reading notes:

• 新しい = あたらしい
• 人 = ひと
• を is usually pronounced o
• 雇います = やといます

In Japanese, adjectives normally come before the noun they describe.

So:

• 新しい人 = new person

This is similar to English word order in phrases like:

• new person
• big house
• interesting book

So 新しい directly modifies 人.

を marks the direct object of the verb.

In this sentence:

• 新しい人 = the new person
• を = marks that person as the one receiving the action
• 雇います = hire

So 新しい人を雇います means that the action of hiring is being done to a new person.

You can think of を as showing what is being hired.

雇います is the polite non-past form of the verb.

• dictionary form: 雇う
• polite form: 雇います

Japanese often uses -ます forms in normal polite conversation.

So:

• 雇う = plain form
• 雇います = polite form

A learner will see -ます forms a lot in beginner Japanese because they are standard in everyday polite speech.

Japanese non-past verbs can cover both present and future, depending on context.

So 雇います can mean:

• hire
• hires
• will hire

In real use, context tells you which one is most natural.

With a sentence like this, English often translates it as will hire or hires, depending on the situation.

Japanese often leaves out the subject when it is understood from context.

So this sentence does not explicitly say who is hiring. It could be:

• I will hire a new person
• We will hire a new person
• The company will hire a new person

The subject is omitted because Japanese frequently avoids stating things that are already clear from the situation.

Yes, 人 has several readings, and the reading depends on how it is used.

Here, 人 is a standalone noun meaning person, so it is read ひと.

Examples of other readings:

• 日本人 = にほんじん = Japanese person
• 三人 = さんにん = three people

So in 新しい人, it means a new person, and the reading is ひと.

In this sentence, 人 most naturally means one person.

So:

• 新しい人を雇います = hire a new person

If you wanted to clearly say people or a number of people, Japanese would usually show that more explicitly, for example with a number:

• 二人を雇います = hire two people

Without that kind of marking, 人 here is normally understood as singular.

Normally, standard Japanese writing does not use spaces between words.

So this would usually be written as:

新しい人を雇います。

The spaces in your example are probably there just to help learners see the parts more easily:

• 新しい
• 人
• を
• 雇います

That is common in beginner materials.

It is understandable and grammatically correct, especially in beginner study materials.

However, in real-life business Japanese, people might choose a more specific noun depending on the situation, such as:

• 新しい社員 = a new employee
• 新しいスタッフ = new staff
• 新人 = a new employee / newcomer

So 新しい人を雇います is fine for learning the grammar pattern, but in real contexts Japanese often prefers a more specific word than just person.
