When to use ~たい for things such as 食べたい？


What are the grammar rules for making verbs into "to want" form? ie 食べたい.

I want to be able to say "I want to visit hokkaido next summer." ie
今度の夏休みに北海度に行きたいです。 is this correct?




Yes it's correct.

たい verbal auxiliary goes after the 連用形 of a verb:

書く → 書き → 書きたい

食べる → 食べ → 食べたい
