minus-squarekestrel7@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up6·2 years agoMaybe they meant “do not dump here.”
minus-squaretiredofsametab@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up3·2 years agoYep. I responded to the wrong person, but I have a comment breaking down the sentence.

ここ = koko = here
に = ni = grammar particle for location.
ゴミ = gomi = garbage/trash/rubbish
を = wo = o = direct object marker
捨て (すて) = sute = throw away (in -te stem form)
ない = nai = not
で = de = marker used in this grammar construction
下さい (ください) = kudasai = please.
Thus: Please don’t throw away your trash here.
Edit: responded to the wrong person. Kbin indents are hard for me to read.
Edit2: add transliteration
Thank you for the breakdown!
