んです


Pronunciation

ndesu

Meaning /Usage

Verb + んです
This is used to avoid ending with verb, which sounds kind of robotic.
For example,
"きょうはすしをたべる。" sounds like a check list written on a paper...(However it's commonly used in a written sentence)
"きょうはすしをたべるんです。" sounds more natural in a regular conversation.
More casual version of のです

Examples

今、日本語を勉強しているんです
いま、にほんごをべんきょうしているんです
I am studying Japanese now.
