	Japanese Verbs are very easy to put together, especially the 五段\|ごだん (Godan) ones. Remember the order of vowels from the [[Japanese Roman Character Pronunciation Guide]]? Just to refresh your memory, they go あ, い, う, え, お. There are 5 sounds obviously, and it is this number that the conjugation gets its name from. 五\|ご (Go) means 5, and 段\|だん (dan) means stage.

	In order to show you how this works, let's select one ~~{{ruby-ja\|~~五段\|ごだん~~}} ~~ (Godan) verb: ~~{{ruby-ja\|~~行く\|いく~~}} ~~ (iku), which means "to go" and follow it through a full five conjugations. Conjugation deals only with changing the vowel at the end of the original dictionary form verb, and sometimes adding a suffix. The Dictionary form is so called because this is the way you will find a verb in the dictionary, it will always end with う(u) in this form without exception.

	Japanese verbs have a different style of conjugation completely than our verbs. They conjugate to express not only time, but certain feelings we would express using more words. 五段\|ごだん (Godan) verbs include all verbs that do not end with -iru or -eru sound (the 'i' and 'e' can be preceded by a consonantal sound) as well as some that actually do end with them but are not する and くる (suru or kuru). Most verbs ending with the letters -いる and -える (-iru and -eru) are ichidan verbs (one stage), with some exceptions, while する and くる (suru and kuru) are the most common irregular verbs in Japanese.

	===Negative===		===Negative===
	行く\|いく (iku), when changed to negative, must first take the vowel with which this form is associated as its last vowel. Since the negative form is associated with あ(a), ~~{{ruby-ja\|~~行く\|いく~~}} ~~ (iku) drops the う(u) from its dictionary form past and becomes ~~{{ruby-ja\|~~行\|い}}か (Ika). In a case where you have a word like Au, (to meet) you will note that this would turn into "aa-nai" in the negative under these rules. For such silliness an escape is provided. the "a" you add on in the end becomes "wa" thus, "Awa-nai". Remebering that the raw verb of Iku begins in the dictionary form (u-form) is tantamount to remembering that you do not add the vowel in conjugation, you replace it. Iku becomes Ika. The next step is to add the negative suffix to the word Ika. This suffix is "nai." The negative form of Iku is Ikanai: "not go."		行く\|いく (iku), when changed to negative, must first take the vowel with which this form is associated as its last vowel.
