Hi,Dean!

 

私は　食べたい。I want to eat. 

私は　日本語を学びたい。 i want to learn japanese. 

 

----------------

You have to change the last word of the verb.

And its vowel sound is usually changed to "i" sound.

For example, 

・buy　　　買う　→　買いたい

・drink　　飲む　→　飲みたい

・go　　　　行く　→　行きたい

・talk　　　話す　→　話したい

 

You got it??;)
