5 日本ごmemo To list activities/ actions, use verb た form.
きいた listen り “listing” みた watch り “listing” します。 do do such things as listening and watching いった go り “listing” たべた eat り “listing” します。 do do such things as going and eating Then, add り after each verb. Add します to the last verb.

6 日本ごmemo NOTES: English translation for たり、たり sentence is done as “do such things as…” only to make “listing” nuance clear. It can be something else like such as: “sometimes (verb) and (verb)”. even though verbs are in たform (Plain Past form) for this, nuance of “Palin” and “Past” tense are completely lost. This means たり、たりします structure is nothing to do with Plain/Casual style or past tense. If you wish to list activities/actions in the past, just chance the last します into しました. えいがを みたり、コーヒーを のんだり しました。 We did such things as watching movies and drinking coffee. Likewise, other structures can also be added by changing/ adding something to the last します (e.g. してください”please do”, しましょう”let’s do”). えいがを みたり、コーヒーを のんだり しましょう。 Let’s do such things as watching movies and drinking coffee. “Doer” has to be the same within a たり、たり sentence. Up to three verbs can be listed. A comma after たり is an optional (depending on the length of the clause).
