Here is an example sentence for particle and sentence construction practice ^^ Japanese generally goes from biggest idea to smallest idea (putting last names before first, writing the date in year, month, day order, etc), so, first, think about sentence structure; subject-object-verb. Subject: You (we will omit it because it contextual) Object: the place where we sat with him in March Verb: remember In "the place where we sat with him in March", you also sort of break it up into SOV, so "in March" is first, then "with him", then "place where (we) sat". "In March" is simply "3月で" (san-gatsu de), or "in the 3rd month", because months in Japanese are just counted instead of being given names. "With him" is "彼と一緒に" (kare to issho ni), which is actually more like "together with him". "Place where (we) sat" is "座った場所" (suwatta basho), literally "sat place", but when you put a noun directly after a verb, it means "the thing that ~ does", in this case "the place where we (intended) sat". Lastly, we put the verb, which is "remember"/覚える (oboeru). Because this is a question, we simply put the question particle "の" (no) after "覚える". Without the "の", the sentence can be turned into the statement "I remember the place where we sat with him in March" because, as a question, it's intended that you're referring to who you're asking (you), and, as a statement, it's intended that you're talking about yourself (I).
