Acerca de 見える

In the same way that ()こえる is used to describe things that are 'audible', ()える can be used to describe things that are 'visible'. ()える itself is an intransitive verb, meaning that the object that is 'visible' will be marked with .

When using ()える, (A) will always be followed by . However, the 'way that something looks' will be marked adverbially. This means that an い-Adjective will be changed to its く form, and な-Adjectives/nouns will be followed by .

This usage of ()える will be covered more in our focused lesson on this particular grammar structure.

Fun Fact

The primary difference between ()える, and ()られる (the potential form of ()る), is that ()える is used to identify things that do not require the active concentration of the spectator to be seen. In other words, seeing it is unavoidable (if looking in its direction of course). However, ()られる is used when the onlooker, is trying to concentrate on some specific object, and is referring to their 'ability' to see it.

Fun Fact

()える is also sometimes used to describe the 'sense' of sight, and refers to whether anything is visible at all for the speaker.
