[edit] Particle
へ (romaji e)
- (particle)
- へ (e) indicates a destination or movement toward something. When used in this sense, it is pronounced "é" instead of "he".
[edit] Synonyms
- に (ni): into
- In the sense indicating destination, the particles へ (e) and に (ni) are often interchangeable, though there is a slight difference of connotation or emphasis. へ (e) emphasizes the journey to the destination, while に (ni) emphasizes the arrival or entering it. The distinction is not quite the same as between English to and into; に (ni) is usually best translated as to because に (ni), unlike English into, can refer to the journey in addition to the arrival or entering the destination.
