Take the tour ×  A little while back I was working my way
through the Book "Japanese Sentence Patterns for Effective
Communication" When I got to page 156 it explains the topic of
the section which is "The te form of a verb, followed by ください,
expresses a polite request or command...." It then gives some
examples and asks you to solve a few problems. One of the
sentences to translate was "Please carry this chair to the
conference room"  I worked out the problem like so   however the
answer the book gives is   This seemed very strange because the
conference room is a direct object of the chair. I am also aware
that を can mean the space through which something is going, but
again that usage seems incorrect since we are talking about a
destination.  Can anybody explain this usage of the を particle
and if my answer makes any more or less sense than the book
answer? If I had never seen this sentence before Im sure I could
make out what it means, but the way it uses the を particle is
tripping me up. Thanks!  share|i
