Abstract

In this study, the use of the word taihen in Japanese sentences had difficulty in using the word taihen that appeared in Japanese sentences. This is because the word taihen belongs to two classes of words at once, namely fukushi (adjective) and keiyoushi (adverb). Therefore the author is interested in raising the title of the research on the Use of the Word “Taihen” as an Adjective and Adverb. The method used in this study is a descriptive method using literature study data collection techniques. The data used in this study are finished sentences contained in several minna no nihongo books, teaching materials and also previous research studies. Based on the results of this study, it can be concluded that the word taihen that appears in minnanonihongo books and other textbooks is mostly the word taihen as an adjective that means tiring, difficult, struggling, troublesome, reinforcing, and impractical. As for the word taihen as an adverb generally translates to “very” in Indonesian, and its meaning follows the meaning of the word described.
