| Jul 10 at 20:42 | comment | added | Az_T | Sorry that was my bad. i didn't noticed the title , i just changed the question . As you mentioned i should ask other questions in other posts for more details . | |
| Jul 10 at 8:28 | comment | added | Saegusa | @Az_T That is not what your question is asking, if you're wondering about the difference between 必要 and 要る, please ask another question as it is not related to your initial question. | |
| Jul 9 at 22:46 | comment | added | Gui Imamura | @Az_T Your question states that you can't differentiate between 居る and 要る in spoken language, and Saegusa has answered that, most of the times, the context will be enough; there's no mention in the answer about the difference between 要る and 必要. | |
| Jul 9 at 20:24 | comment | added | Az_T | my question here is what's the diffrent between the structures "要る“and "必要“ to express a requirement or a need . you said context will help, can you please give me an example. | |
| Jul 9 at 20:22 | comment | added | Az_T | 彼氏が要る yeah may sound weird but i really meant "boyfriend is required" and i wrote deliberately "いる” without kanji to express it like if it was in spoken language rather than written. you may be right that the verb is usually transformed to its polite or any form so i can tell which verb it is ( one is ichidan and the other is godan ) but let say that i wanted to express a fact or a future event like " boyfriend will be required " then i should choose the dictionnary form of a verb . | |
