Episode 27 - Interrogative words with particle "ga" (nani ga, doko ga, dore ga etc.)
from Learn Japanese with Masa sensei! · host Masa Sensei
- Grammar point - The particle wa cannot be used together with a question word, because wa specifies the topic of a sentence, which is information already known to the speaker. On the other hand, it is possible to use wa when there is a question word in the comment (the part of the sentence that follows the topic). The particle ga marks the grammatical subject of a sentence. Always use ga when the subject is, or contains, a question word. =============================================== Check out my Youtube Channel!
