43. Plan to—予定・つもり yotei ; tsumori
If you plan on speaking Japanese, these two words are very useful. 予定yoteiandつもりtsumori.
予定 yotei and つもり tsumori are very similar in meaning and usage. 予定 yotei conveys more of a “schedule” feel whereas tsumori is more of a “conviction of doing something.” All you have to do is add either to the end of a verb (simple form).
To add つもり tsumori or 予定 yotei to any verb just find the simple form.
日本に行くつもり/予定です。
nihon ni iku tsumori (or yotei) desu.
I intend to go to Japan.
[if you use tsumori, you “intend” to go one way or another; if you use yotei you already have a hard schedule set to leave at a certain time.]
Here is how you add it to a する suru verb
彼と旅行するつもり/予定です。
kare to ryokou suru tsumori (or yotei) desu.
I intend (or plan) to go on a trip with him.
You can also use it with nouns by sticking a の no before the つもり tsumori and after adjectives. But for now concentrate on the verb usage.
