みなさんお早うございます，

質問があります。
インターネットでこの文を見付けました：

iPodは、ハードディスクの容量が大きければ大きいほどもっとたくさんの曲が保存できます。
About iPod, the larger the hard disk capacity, the more songs you can save.

At JDIC:
保存 【ほぞん】 (n,vs) preservation; conservation; storage; maintenance

Is 保存 being used as a noun or verb? If a verb, I thought する needed to be used.

ありがとうございます

Don't forget that できる is the potential of する.

保存する -> store
保存できる -> can store

[Teh_Freak]

できる is the "can" form of する.

EDIT:
Doh! Beat me to it.

[richvh]

It's being used as a verb. できる is the potential form of する.

[tanuki]

Thanks, rich!

[richvh]

Great minds think alike.

[yakitori]

Excellent! Thanks for the help everyone.

ありがとうございました

お早うございます

This is irrelevant, but I don't think that kanji is normally used for ohayou gozaimasu. At least I've never really seen it.

[Yudan Taiteki]

It's usually written in kana. (That is the correct kanji, but it's one of those things that just isn't written in kanji)

You could regard 'xyzする' as a verb but 'xyz' itself is a noun. We call them 複合動詞, compound verb. So, 'xyzをする' is not a wrong Japanese.
評価する
評価をする
Both are OK.

oh, thanks....I didn't realize お早うございますwas usually written in kana alone then
