Common Mistakes - Safety (安全) and Safe (安全な)


Japanese has 2 main adjective types - い形容詞 and な形容詞。


I think that this makes it easy to confuse English words that end 

with a y (which makes an いい sound) 

Here is a common example:

Can you see the mistake?
Healthy is an adjective, so it is correct on this sign. But...
Safety is a noun!(名詞) The adjective is safe. The sign should say Healthy and Safe. 

Some English adjectives do end with y so they make an いい sound:
funny and happy 例えば

But some do not! 
cool, smart and weak 例えば

When you use English... be safe!!!
