The structure of the phrase will be in this form:
[object A] と [object B]
= [object A] and [object B]
For example:
cat and dog= neko to inu = 猫と犬
Hence,
I like cats and dogs. = watashi wa neko to inu ga suki desu. = 私は猫と犬が好きです。
(to form 'like' and 'dislike' sentences, refer to Lesson 5)
Other examples:
- Miss A and Mr B are good friends. = A san to B san wa nakayoshi desu. = A さんとBさんは仲よしです。(nakayoshi = good friends)
- I have 3 sons and 2 daughters. = watashi wa musuko ga sannin to musume ga futari imasu. = 私は息子が三人と娘が二人います。(musuko = son; musume = daughter)
