In Spanish the volitional for is also used to speak to oneself as if inviting yourself to do something. It is not standard Spanish to my knowledge but a common practice in informal context where someone is speaking to him/herself intimately. The idea of volition, the intention of doing something is then implied in the Spanish expression. So, could it be said that in a way when someone says 寝よう he/she is inviting him/herself to sleep in Japanese too and the volition is implied?
@@MasaSensei It's the question about studying for an exam : one person asks the other about studying for the exam . I just thought it's more polite to use the person's name , not anata wa? (It's about 7 minutes into the lesson)
Does it mean " 行こうかなと思います " ?? If so, yes it is the same meaning! かな is used " When you are uncertain / wondering about something." so " 行こうかなと思います " means " I think I will go (but not certain) Please check this video out! :) th-cam.com/video/ZFI0P0EiAdc/w-d-xo.html
Hi!! Sorry to be late!! I made a video to answer to your question!! The difference of these are the level of how strong your volition is. th-cam.com/video/xZNlgwpG2F0/w-d-xo.html 夏休みに旅行しようと思っています (I would like to travel during summer vacation) 夏休みに旅行するつもりです (I intend to travel during summer vacation) 夏休みに旅行する予定 です(I plan to travel during summer vacation) ようと思っています is maybe just thinking about doing... つもりです is you have a strong feeling of doing ... 予定 です is already scheduled, planned
The volitional form of 話す is 話そう, which means "let's speak" or "let's talk" in a casual or friendly way. This form is typically used in informal conversations among friends or when you want to encourage someone to do something with you.
This is very helpful. Thank you so much!
You're very welcome!

Yeah! actually I think that can be implied :) good point!!
What's negative form for volitional in japanese
you will need to change what comes after volitional form into negative.
for example食べようと思いません
Hitotsu shitsumon : Anata : would be sometimes little impolite to use that word in the example you used ?
Which example?

would it be the same if you added かな before the 行こうと思います? is there any difference?
Does it mean " 行こうかなと思います " ??
If so, yes it is the same meaning! かな is used " When you are uncertain / wondering about something." so " 行こうかなと思います " means " I think I will go (but not certain)
