Japanese

<p>
	In this lesson we introduce the words <strong><ruby>好suき</ruby></strong> and <strong><ruby>嫌kiraい</ruby></strong>, 
	which mean <strong>like</strong> and <strong>dislike</strong>.
</p>
<p>
	Unlike in English, <strong><ruby>好suき</ruby></strong> and <strong><ruby>嫌kiraい</ruby></strong> are adjectives, and not verbs.
	For this reason, in sentences where these words are used, the object that is liked is followed by the subject-particle <strong>が</strong> instead of <strong>を</strong>.
	Check out the example sentences below to see how <strong><ruby>好suき</ruby></strong> and <strong><ruby>嫌kiraい</ruby></strong> are used in context.
