Particles Flashcards
は
Marks the topic
の-私の
Marks possession, where someone or something is from, or what something is made of
が
Emphasizes the topic
ね
right?(If you want to sound masculine but still want to use the particle ね, you must add だ before other wise you will sound feminine-This only counts for nouns and な-adjectives, not い adjectives)
よ
!(If you want to sound masculine but still want to use the particle よ, you must add だ before other wise you will sound feminine-This only counts for nouns and な-adjectives, not い adjectives)
も
Too, also, as well-used the same as the は particle
から
The less formal version of ので
From, as in what something is made of or where it is from
Two sentences can also be connected with から, and から ends up meaning “so”, so the reason goes first, then the thing
If the first sentence ends with, no copulas, plains nouns, or な-adjectives, add だ
とか
A casual version of や
や
Used to list nouns, and implies that the list is incomplete, and the mentioned list is only part of the whole list-like saying, etc., or among or things
か
Can be placed at the end of sentences to designate them as questions
Can be placed between nouns, like と or や, to mean “or”
と
Placed in-between nouns to mean “and”, and implies that there is no other things or options then mentioned/stated
It can also be used to show the co-participant of an action meaning “with”
に
に is the target particle that designates the target of a particle-Essentially means at, to, in, or on
ので
-Is the more formal version of から
From, as in what something is made of or where it is from
Two sentences can also be connected with ので, and ので ends up meaning “so”, so the reason goes first, then the thing
If the first sentence ends with, no copulas, plains nouns, or な-adjectives, add な
のに
Works mostly as から, but means “despite”, or “in spite of”
If the first sentence ends with, no copulas, plains nouns, or な-adjectives, add な
で
The context particle is used to describe the context or the means in which a verb takes place. For example, if you’re eating at a restaurant, since the restaurant is not a direct target for eating, you wouldn’t use the 「に」 particle. Instead, you would use the 「で」 particle to describe the restaurant as the context in which eating is taking place
