What is ‘desu’?

です(desu) is a polite Japanese verb-like expression that is often translated as "is," "am," or "are." However, it doesn't always match the English verb "to be" exactly.
You can think of です (desu)as a polite sentence ending that makes statements sound respectful.

はなこさん　は　がくせい　です。

Hanako san wa gakusei desu.

Hanako (topic) student is.

Hanako is a student.
