What does mitai na mean in Japanese?

Question

I always get confused hen the tai form of a verb is used and something else is said afterwards.

What is no used for at end of sentences? I thought it was for questions, but Ive heard it used AT THE END OF SENTENCES when questions aren't asked too. example: tabetai no (not question)

Answer 1

Mitai na= I wanna see it, k?

Mitai= I want to see.

Na= sort of like ne, but men say it.

Eiga wo mitai na= I wanna see that movie, k?

Minna tanoshii wa= I think you mean "Minna san wa tanoshii" which is "everyone is happy" (tanoshii can mean fun, too)

Hasu no hana= lotus flower.

Answer 2

____, mitai na.

-> speaking ambiguously, giving a vague answer. (=it's like ____)

tabetai no. (=i want to eat, ok?)

-> 'no' is mostly female term.

~no, ~na, ~naa, ~ne, ~nee, ~yo, ~noyo ..etc are called ending particle.

minna tanoshii wa (female term)

1. we're having fun!

2. they're nice/happy/good people!

depends on the context.

Answer 3

“mitai na” means something “the like”. For example: “aho mitai na kao” is a “face like that of an idiot”.

“no yō na” is similar in meaning. E.g. “saru no yō na kao” means “face like an ape”

“minna tanoshii wa” means “we are all happy”. The “wa” is just used by women. Men would say “yo” for example. It is just a reinforcement. “wa” may sound more emotional than “yo”

“hasu no hana” is lotus flower (nelumbo).

Edit: I just noticed that I had forgotten to answer your question about “no” at the end of a sentence.

“no” can be used as an emphesis. But then usually you would add “da” or “desu” after it. So “tabetai no” could mean “Just, I want to eat it” or “I want to very eat it”.
