In class, we're learning about one base verbs and five base verbs (at least that's what I hear when I'm not going into a confused state... and that is what's on the sheet I was given).
I don't see any difference between the one base or five base verbs. How can I tell which is which?
Also, how am I supposed to tell what endings to put onto the dictionary forms of these verbs? For taberu it goes... tabemasu, tabenai, tabemasen.
But how am I supposed to know the others? Is it complete memorization, or..?
