窓

How it works

を (object) marks what the action lands on (窓(まど) (window)), and the object comes before the verb — Japanese puts the verb at the very end. The verb 開ける(あける) (open) shifts into its て (te-form) form, 開けて(あけて) (open). On its own, te-form works as a soft, casual request — like saying “open the window” to a friend, with the polite ください (please) dropped.
