so

"Kyonen wa Doitsu ni ikimashita."

so in this phrase I'm suppose to use "ni" particle..

but

"Hito wa Nihon he ikimasu."

here I'm suppose to use "he"..


In both pharses I'm telling the location where someone is going. Can I use "ni" instead of "he" in the second pharse?

Don't explain what these particles are.. I know. Just this one problem ISO for answer.

(and also:

Neko ga koko ni kimasu.

can I also say

Neko ga koko he kimasu)

and:

Anata wa itsu oosaka he ikimasu ka?


Is "oosaka" a name ?.. So does it mean: "When are you going to visit Oosaka"

and and

Watashi wa konshuu isogashii desu (I am busy this week)
Senshuu wa himazushita (Last week ... ???)


What does Himazushita stand for in that phrase?

The articles へ and に are largely interchangeable. But there is a subtle difference. Imagine に as target with a bull's eye. The bull's eye is what the particle represents. In other words it's point to something very precise. へ is used more to indicate general direction, it's more vague and unclear.

Thus:

Kyonen wa Doitsu ni ikimashita and Kyonen wa Doitsu e ikimashita would both be correct, but your last sentence isn't since you're using "koko" which specifically means this place. So only に must be used.




Oosaka is a large city in Japan. Your sentence is correct.




Someone will have to take this one because I have no idea what this word means. Have you got a kanji for it? If so, post. Anyway "hima" means free time. So possibly it could mean "Last week I had free time".
