★verb (ta-form) + ほうがいい(hou ga ii)★

it would be better to (do), you had better (do)


“it is better (for you) to do…” is a sentence-final expression that can be used to give advice. It implies that if you do not follow the advice, danger or a problem will result. It refers to something very specific.


運動したほうがいいです！

Undou shita hou ga ii desu!

Why don’t you exercise (It’s better to exercise)!


When giving advice, it’s also common to add ね (ne) or よ (yo) at the end of the sentence. Adding ne softens the blow a bit, and adding yo makes it a bit more forceful (as if this person needs a bit more of a push in the right direction).


運動したほうがいいね！

Undou shita hou ga ii ne!

Why don’t you exercise! (Nuance: Have you tried that yet?)


運動したほうがいいよ！

Undou shita hou ga ii yo!

Why don’t you exercise! (Nuance: You need to hop to! Chop-chop!)

もっとやさいをたべたほうがいいです。

★(nai-form) + ほうがいいです (hou ga ii desu)★
